Assembly
1. Connect the suspension cross member and tie rod. The tie rod bushing with the smaller inner diameter must be connected to the suspension cross member. Do not over-tighten the fasteners.
2. Install the tie rod hanger cross member onto the beam. The arrow on the tie rod must point up. Do not over-tighten the fasteners.
3. Position the hanger bar and linkage parallel to the axis of the beam, then tighten the fasteners to the specified torque (see fig. «Rear suspension device»).
4. Install the rear suspension assembly on the vehicle (see section «Removal and installation of a back suspension bracket»).
