Bolts (Rear Lateral Link Outer Side And Rear Upper Arm Outer Side) Removal Note

1. Raise the rear trailing link to the unloaded

condition with a jack.

Note

• Jacking up the rear suspension to the no-

occupant position will lighten the force on the
bushing and make it easier to perform the
procedure.

2. Remove the bolts (rear lateral link outer side and

rear upper arm outer side).

Rear Crossmember And Rear Differential Removal Note

Warning

• Removing the crossmember is dangerous. The crossmember component could fall and cause

serious injury or death. Verify that the jack securely supports the crossmember component.

1. Support the rear crossmember component with a

jack.

2. Remove the rear crossmember component.

Bolts (Rear Lateral Link Outer Side And Rear Upper Arm Outer Side) Installation Note

1. Raise the rear trailing link to the unloaded

condition with a jack.

Note

• Jacking up the rear suspension to the no-

occupant position will lighten the force on the
bushing and make it easier to perform the
procedure.

2. Tighten the bolts (rear lateral link outer side and

rear upper arm outer side).

Rear Cross Bar Installation Note

1. Install the cross bar so that the triangular marking

is facing to the front of the vehicle.
