*c	Top of the Vehicle	-	-

INSTALL FRONT SUSPENSION MEMBER BRACE
1. *a Protrusion
  
  Install the front suspension member brace with the 8 bolts.
  
  Torque:
  
  87 N*m { 887 kgf*cm, 64 ft.*lbf }
  
  Note
  
  After installing the front suspension member brace, mark sure that the protrusions of the front stabilizer bar bushings are visible.
TEMPORARILY INSTALL FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY LH
1. Temporarily install the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly LH to the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly with the 2 bolts and nut.
  
  Note
  
  Because the nut has its own stopper, do not turn the nut. Tighten the bolt with the nut fixed in place.

INSTALL FRONT SUSPENSION CROSSMEMBER SUB-ASSEMBLY

Support the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly with an engine lifter using 4 attachments or equivalent tools.
Note
- Make sure to secure the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly to prevent it from dropping.
- Use the attachments to keep the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly level.
- The front suspension crossmember sub-assembly is a heavy component. Make sure that it is supported securely.

Tighten the bolts on the left and right sides while alternately inserting SST into the left and right side reference holes in the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly.
