Truck Preparation
1. Check part quantities using the Parts List on Page 2.
2. Block vehicle wheels. Some vehicles may require you to raise the rear of the truck in order to make it easier to drill for installing the mounting brackets on the truck frame.
3. Remove the spare tire and tailgate.
4. You may wish to remove the wheels to give yourself greater working room.
5. Remove the bolts that attach the receiver hitch support bracket to the frame on 2004-2005 model year trucks.
NOTE: On 2006-2008 models, the receiver hitch support bracket is welded to the frame. For this reason, we have included four rear mounting bracket nut plates {Q} to aid installation.
Front Air Spring Removal:
1. Raise the front suspension of the Land Rover 1995 – 2002 with proper lifting equipment. Both wheels must be off the ground with no load. ALWAYS USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN LIFTING VEHICLE! (Refer to shop manual for lifting instructions)
2. Remove both front wheels.
3. Remove plastic wheel arch liner.
4. Depressurize air spring by removing nylon air hose. To remove air hose, push down on the metal collet, while pulling out on the hose.
5. Remove the two upper securing clips.
6. Remove the bolt securing the lower air spring retaining pin to the front axle.
7. Remove lower air spring retaining pin.
8. Remove and discard old air spring.
9. Remove retaining nut from both front shocks.
10. Install upper coil spring rubber isolator.
11. Install front coil spring onto the suspension. Hold the new coil spring against the upper mount, while sliding lower spring perch into place.
12. Using a floor jack, jack up the axle, compressing the front coil springs so you can replace lower shock nuts. (Reverse step #9) REPLACE FRONT WHEELS
Trailer Hitch Installation
1. Open the tailgate.
2. Remove the clip (A) and screw from the rear fender arch molding. Release the seven retaining clips and the two retaining clips (large) of the
rear fender arch molding. Slide the rear fender arch molding outward.
• Insert the shop towel between the rear fender arch molding and the rear fender.
3. Repeat the procedure on the other side.
Before Starting Installation
Kit parts are prefaced by the word kit and appear in bold print.
1. Carefully read all warnings and instructions completely before beginning.
2. Verify all parts have been received in this kit by checking the parts list at the end of this document.
3. Only install this kit on the Nissan Titan for which it is specified. If anytime during the installation you encounter something different from what is outlined in the instructions, call technical support at (928) 636-3175.
4. Special tools needed:
a. Coil spring compressors
b. Tie rod puller
5. Park vehicle on a clean, dry, flat, level surface and block tires so vehicle cannot roll in either direction.

These tools are designed to remove and install front wheel drive front wheel bearings. It is not necessary to remove the knuckle assembly from the vehicle, and, as a result, front wheel alignment is not altered.
Vehicle Setup
1. Raise the vehicle until all weight is off the front wheels, and they hang freely.
2. Remove the following components:
• front tires
• axle nut
• outer tie rod nut and tie rod
• disc brake caliper – use a wire (or OTC No. 7661 caliper hanger set) to hold caliper out of the way and prevent damage to brake hose
• brake rotor
• loosen the lower ball joint from the steering knuckle assembly
3. Lubricate the forcing screw in the tool set.
Using the HubTamer (item numbers refer to the parts list on page 1)
1. Prepare the vehicle by removing the components listed above in Vehicle Setup.
2. Separate the lower ball joint from the spindle assembly.
3. Mount a hub puller (OTC No. 7208A; not included) on the vehicle hub assembly as shown in Figure 1. Apply force to the forcing screw until the axle can be removed as shown in Figure 2. Use wire to tie the axle out of the way; do not let it hang free.
4. Determine which of the four sleeves (Items 26-29) fits the application. The sleeve should push against the hub, but slide through the bearing.
5. Assemble the HubTamer as shown in Figure 3.
6. Slide the HubTamer yoke (No. 5) over the hub in the area where the brake caliper was removed. Verify the yoke will be pushing on the knuckle casting, NOT on the dust shield.
You can install the turn signal kit yourself If:
1. you have the right tools,
2. you have a reasonable mechanical and electrical aptitude or experience,
3. you have the knowledge or diagrams of where wiring, fuel lines, etc. are located in the vehicle,
4. and you read and follow the instructions very carefully.
There are several factors which must be considered when checking timing belt such as: original belt or replacement, when the last date of replacement, the last miliage and current miliage, the latest tracking history of the problem when timing belt is replaced and so on.
Another important checking that must be done, such as check for engine damage that possible to have valve-to-piston damage in the event of timing belt failure. A compression check of all cylinder should be performed before removing the cylinder head… Detail installation manual could be read by downloading the PDF.
The legendary Mustang is celebrating its 35th birthday this year, and Ford has made some improvements and a few cosmetic changes to mark the occasion. The base V-6 engine gets 40 more horsepower, and the 4.6-litre V-8 gets a boost to 260 hp from 225. The Mustang lineup includes base, GT and Cobra models, available in coupe and convertible body styles.
Installation and Basic Set-Up Instructions
Follow this sequence of steps to properly install and set up your new FOX shock.
1) Remove the stock shock absorber from the motorcycle.
2) Set the FOX shock length (if equipped with length adjustment). See section below.
3) Install the FOX shock on the motorcycle. Torque the mounting fasteners to the motorcycle manufacturer’s recommendations.
4) Set the static sag and rider sag. See section below.
5) Set the rebound damping. See section below.
6) Set the compression damping (if equipped). See section below.
Shock Length Adjustment / Ride Height Adjustment (If equipped)
On some FOX shocks, it is possible to adjust the rear ride height of your bike, by increasing or decreasing the length of your shock. It is best to start out with your FOX shock set to the same length as the stock shock absorber. Once you have adjusted your spring preload and damping to your liking, you can experiment with different rear ride height settings. See Tuning Instructions for more information on adjusting rear ride height.
