ASSEMBLE UPPER
SUSPENSION ARM
Assemble parts #8405, 8415,
and 8411.
ATTACH UPPER ARM MOUNT TO LOWER ARM
Attach #8407 0° mount to the #8419 lower
suspension arm using two #8409 screws.
WARNING!
Screws are difficult to screw in. Turn
carefully so you do not strip out the head.
INSTALLING UPPER AND LOWER PIVOT BALLS
Before popping in the pivot balls, make sure there
are no burrs inside the pivot ball holes.
Pop the #8417 pivot balls into the suspension arms
as shown. Make sure that the shoulders of the pivot
balls in the lower suspension arms are facing upward
and the pivot balls in the upper arm are facing
downward as shown. Orient ball to the rounded side
of the upper arm as shown.
Now assemble the right side.

BEFORE BUILDING
OPEN THE BAGS IN ORDER
The assembly is arranged so that you will open and finish
that bag before you go on to the next bag.
Sometimes you
will have parts remaining at the end of a bag. These will
become part of the next bag.
Some bags may have a large
amount of small parts. To make it easier to find the parts, we
recommend using a partitioned paper plate for spreading out
the parts so they will be easier to find.
MANUAL FORMAT
The following explains the format of these instructions.
The beginning of each section indicates:
1
Which bag to open
("BAG A").
2
Which parts you will use for those steps. Remove only the
parts shown.
"1:1"
indicates an actual size drawing; place
your part on top and compare it so it does not get confused
with a similar part.
3
Which tools you should have handy for that section.
4
In some drawings, the word
"REAR"
with an arrow
indicates which direction is the rear of the car to help keep
you oriented.
5
The instructions in each step are ordered in the order you
complete them, so read the words AND follow the pictures.
The numbers in circles are also in the drawing to help you
locate them faster.
6
When we refer to left and right sides of the car, we are
referring to the driver's point of view inside the car.
SUPPLEMENTAL SHEETS
We are constantly developing new parts to improve our kits.
These changes, if any, will be noted in supplementary sheets
located in a parts bag or inside the kit box. Check the kit box
before you start and each bag as it is opened. When a
supplement is found, attach it to the appropriate section of the
manual.
Now clear off your workbench,
line up some paper plates,
grab your 50-cent soda, 39-cent cheeseburger, $12.99 music
CD, and let's begin!
