Parts:

Kit #K715183 that includes the following:

(2) 714189-01 – Long Spacers
(2) 714190-01 – Short Spacers
(2) 715176-01 – Socket head bolts

Replacement:

  1. Remove and discard upper shock absorber eyelet hardware (nut, bolt, and spacers).
  2. Use the 715181-01 “Go-No Go” Gage to check the width of the pocket near the bolt holes.
    1. If the gage slips into the pocket, then the pocket is too wide and a shim will be needed to close the gap.
    2. If needed, add shims between one of the spacers and the pocket inside face during reassembly such that the gap between the spacer and the pocket wall is minimized. Use one of the 0.062 shims (#714200-01) if necessary to check that the gap is less than 0.062″ (Placing the shims against either the front or rear mount is acceptable).
  3. Install new hardware including spacers and shims from kit #K715180 as shown below.
    1. Note: One 714201-01 shims must be installed under the head of each 715176-01 Bolt.
    2. Assembly tip: Insert bolt through the rear tab enough to hang needed shims and short spacer, place shock in position, advance bolt to engage shock, position long spacer, push bolt through front tab, and install nut.
  1. Using a socket extension thru the access holes in the cradle, torque the head of the bolt to between 245 and 260 ft-lbs while holding the nut with a wrench.
  2. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 on the opposite side.

 

Labor Allowance: 0.7 hr not to exceed $85.00.
