Location: Okielahoma | Bought springs from Eaton, first time doing this, I’m replacing the springs and shocks, other than the actual springs what else is needed to do this properly ? Are there any things I should do while I’m there? Thanks |

Check brake line and hose to the rear. Read the Factory service Manual. (FSM) Shop manual. Torques, Locktite 271
What Loctite to use on suspension bolts?
For parts that need a more permanent hold, like structural bolts in a home, auto suspensions and frames, or any other heavy machinery, Loctite Threadlocker Red 271 is the answer. |
