Installation Notes

  • Axle alignment must be performed in accordance with SAE or TMC recommended standards.
  • Installer must set the suspension to the specified mounting height before torquing pivot fasteners.
  • Pivot bolt must be torqued using an E-20 Torx socket until the Torx head shears off.
  • Customer-furnished crossmembers and filler plates are required.
  • Suspension fasteners must be re-torqued initially at 6,000 miles and every 50,000 miles thereafter. Do not re-torque pivot fasteners.
  • Axle-to-suspension welding must follow Ridewell Weld Process No. 1.

Maintenance Notes

  • Inspect air springs, shocks, bushings, and fasteners during routine service intervals.
  • Do not re-torque shear-type pivot fasteners.
  • Bushing replacement requires Ridewell-approved kits and tools.
