    1. New torsion bar spring:


      1. Identify left and right marks on the rear end of the torsion bar spring.

        Note

        The mark is at the rear end of the torsion bar spring.

      2. Install the torsion bar dust cover to the torsion bar spring.

      3. Apply MP grease to the spline at the both ends of the torsion bar spring.

      4. Install the anchor arm to the frame.

      5. Install the rear end of torsion bar spring to the anchor arm.

      6. Install the tip of torsion bar spring to the front suspension torque arm.

        Pass the adjusting hexagon bolt through the anchor arm swivel, anchor arm, anchor arm adjuster seat, and temporarily tighten them with the anchor arm adjust nut.

        Note

        Install the anchor arm so that dimension C will be almost the same as dimension B when it was removed.
