2006-2007 Ford F-53 Framework Motorcoach Front Designation Instructions
Installation
1. Place the manager upon a level concrete surface. Measure each side of a coach from a front wheel good to the ground. Record these measurements as you will need them in Step 9.
2. Place the jack underneath each side of a frame just behind the leaf spring shackles. Jack the coach up high enough so which a tires are just off the ground. Place the jack stand subsequent to the jacks to forestall a manager from falling off the jacks.
3. It works best to install one side at a time. Mislay the reduce shock bolt. Mislay a factory sway bar, trac club, trac club spindle mount (located upon driver’s side – keep these bolts as they will be reused). Remove upper trac bar mountain (located upon passenger’s side inner support rail – keep these bolts as they will be reused. Mislay the root spring. Keep track of a U-bolts which reason the front of the root in place as good as a shaft that connects the rear of the root open to the shackle.
4. Two holes (between 1/2” – 5/8”) need to be drilled in the bottom of the frame. These holes are what a air bag studs fit into. Locate the shaft in the bottom of the support that is about 4 1/2” forward of the dual wall support. Measure as well as core punch 4” behind and 7 1/2” back, centering the place in a center of the frame.
5. Once a old leaf spring is private, fixup the brandnew root open and connect a front end into the factory location as well as connect rear finish to the shackle (1.3 & 1.4). Fixup the air bag and insert a brass air line fitting in a top of a bag. Next, locate the lower air bag mount and fasten a air bag to the joint using the 3/8” x 1” bolts. Core up a bolt in the container. Make certain the air inlet of a air bag goes towards the inside of a vehicle and the startle mount goes towards a rear of the car.
6. Place a lower air bag mount on the top of a root spring (the shock mountain goes towards the rear of the coach). Slip a U-bolts under a reduce air bag plate and bind assembly behind in place. Go ahead and torque a nuts on the U-bolts to 150 lb / ft. Reattach the bottom startle bolt.
7. Repeat Steps 3-6 upon a opposite side.
