INSTALLING THE LOWER A-ARM TO CROSSMEMBER
1. Working on a table is the easiest way to install the lower A-arms to the crossmember. See page 3 for fastener size and location.
2. Find these parts to assemble the lower A-arm. The balljoint comes pressed-in. Refer to the HARDWARD PAGE 3 for fastener sizes. The lower A-arms need to be installed on crossmember first
3. Steering stops go toward the rear
4. Grease all (4) bushings inside and out, along with the cross shaft and the holes in A-arms and in the crossmember on each side. Install the 4 urethane bushings.

INSTALL LOWER A-ARM - Con’t
5. Use only a plastic mallet or rubber hammer to tap the shaft through the first 2 bushings. Then, install a 3/4-inch i.d.spacer between the bushing and the crossmember. Continue to tap the pivot shaft through the crossmember.
6. Tap the cross shaft through just enough to add the spacer.
7. As the pivot shaft meets the other side of the crossmember, install another 3/4-inch i.d. spacer. You should have one spacer on each side of the crossmember.
8. Continue tapping the shaft through the last 2 bushings, then stop with about 1/4-inch of shaft sticking out.
9. Use the aluminum capshaft screw (5/16NF X 3/4 countersunk) to tap the shaft through the last 1/4-inch.

1928-59 GM Disc Brake Conversion Kits CP702, CP706, CP711 Installation Instructions

Instructions:
1. Remove early Chevy drums, brakes and backing plates from spindles. Make sure you retain the bearing nut and keyed washer.
2. Thoroughly clean grease and dirt from spindle. Check for cracks or damage.
3. Using one of the original bolts in the forward hole re-install the steering arm in its stock location on the spindle. Using the hardware supplied in the kit install the caliper mounting bracket on the rear of the spindles as shown in the figure. Insert the 1/4’’ thick round spacers between the braket and the spindle. Check for adequate clearance between the bracket and spindle. Trim bracket if necessary.
4. Examine the inner wheel bearing seating area on the spindle for nicks, etc. VERY IMPORTANT: Emery cloth area as required for a smooth surface.
5. Slide bearing adapter on new smooth surface spindle and drive into place using a hammer and a piece of tubing or pipe of suitable dimensions (1 1/2” pipe works great).
DO NOT DAMAGE THE ADAPTER WHILE INSTALLING (use a rag for padding between tool and adapter). Drive adapter on until it seats firmly against spindle inner bearing shoulder.
6. Remove bearings and inner seal from GM rotor. Remove GM inner bearing race and replace both the race and inner bearing assembly with that from a ‘71-’80 Pinto or ‘70-’78 Mustang. This is a widely used Ford inner wheel bearing that is readily available. It is also known as as A-13 inner bearing and consists of a L68149 cone and a L68110 race. Install a standard GM inner seal (National #8871).
7. Install rotor on spindle making sure that inner bearing seats all the way onto bearing adapter.
NOTE: bearings and adapter are machined to a ±.0005” tolerance. If bearing does not slide onto adapter easily it may be due to tolerance “stack-up”. This can be rectified by a small amount of fine emery “paper-work” on the bearing seating surface of the adapter.
8. Install GM outer wheel bearing followed by the 3/4” I.D. x 1/4” spacer (supplied in kit) and then the stock Chevy keyed bearing retaining washer and retaining nut. Adjust bearings a required and install cotter key and bearing dust cover.
9. Clean and inspect caliper for damage, leaks, etc. install caliper on mounting bracket WITH BLEEDER FITTING UP using stock GM mounting bolts. Make sure the bolts aren’t bent or damaged before installing.
10. Fill the brake system with the correct fluid, bleed and inspect for leaks.
11. Check for any brake caliper /rotor/ wheel interference.
12. A proportioning valve may be required.*

Light Bar Mounting Instructions

Light Bar Mounting Instructions

LIGHT BAR CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Two people will be needed to complete this task.
2. Place ONLY THE MOUNTING END CASTING into the rain-gutters of your vehicle.
3. Level each Mounting End Casting so that the top flat area is parallel to the horizon.
4. Take a tape measure and measure the distance between each open end of each Mounting End Casting .
5. Add 2 inches to that dimension.
6. Subtract that total from the total length of the bar, which is 56″.
7. Take the difference and divide it by two.
8. The amount divided by two is the amount you will cut off each end of your bar.

Installation:
1. Please read the light bar cutting instructions on back carefully.
2. Measure and mark a line on both ends of the steel bar using the dimensions provided.
3. Clamp the end of a bar into a vise. (Be careful not to scar the light bar).
4. Using a hacksaw, cut carefully along the marked lines. (If a vise is not available, put the bar on a table, secure tightly and cut).
5. Place the black plastic booties on the feet of each casting.
6. With the holes in the bar, in the up position, take the casting and by squeezing the end of the bar, place the casting on the bar, until the inside top wall of the casting is flat against the bar.
7. Take a 5/16″ Allen head screw and put it through the hole in the casting, and the slot in the bar, with the head of the screw in the up position.
8. Take the larger washer and put it inside the bar, with the 5/16″ Allen head screw, going through the washer. (IMPORTANT): Be sure that the large washer is completely underneath the casting.
9. With the larger washer in position, take a nylon lock nut and Allen wrench provided, and lightly tighten the bar to casting.
10. Follow the same procedure in steps 5 - 9 to attach other casting to the bar.
11. With both of the castings lightly tightened to the bar, take the entire bar and place the bar, with the castings, into the rain gutter of your vehicle. (Note: If your vehicle does not have rain gutters, please refer to the SPECIAL NOTE on the other side of this page).
12. Loosen, DO NOT REMOVE hardware on bar and casting.
13. Slide castings in or out on bar, so that each casting sets completely in rain gutters. (IMPORTANT): Make sure that the bar is centered and that the bar is evenly divided into each casting and that each casting is directly across from each other.
14. Once again, take the Allen wrench and tighten securely the bar to each casting.
15. Position the foot of the “L” shaped steel brackets underneath the rain gutter and line up the vertical slot of the bracket with tapped hole in the casting. Insert (2) ―” Tamper proof Allen head bolts with lock washers through the “L” bracket securing the bracket to support casting. (DO NOT TIGHTEN).
16. Place a screwdriver through the desired horizontal slot in the steel bracket, at the same time put the screwdriver into one of three slots provided in the casting. (Proper selection of the slots in the bracket and the slots in the casting will result in a tighter fit on the vehicle.).
17. Push the screwdriver against the casting and pry up against each bracket, one at a time, until both the casting and brackets are tightly secured in place. Tighten the two Allen head bolts. (CAUTION): Prying up excessively could result in bending of the bracket or stripping the slots in the castings.
18. Follow the same procedure in steps 15, 16, and 17 to secure other casting to rain gutter.
19. The bar and casting should now be tightly secured to the vehicle.
20. Your light bar hardware may settle in. After 2 or 3 weeks of use, go back and re-tighten all hardware. A periodic check on all hardware is recommended.
21. Do not lose your Allen wrench.
22. To maintain the luster of your light bar, apply a polish on a regular basis.
