These often are seized into the hub and may require a combination of heating, penetrating oil and taping back and forth with a hammer to get them dislodged. If you bought the new hardware with your lat arms, you simply can cut out the old with out worry. At last resort to remove them safely, they may need to be pressed out, this involves removing the hubs from the struts, and placing them in a press.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”3349″][vc_column_text]Remove the 4 anchor bolts holding the sub-frame to the chassis.

If you purchases new lower hardware, please note the 2 washers should be placed on each side of the Lat Arms, and once the bolt is tightened, some length may need to be trimmed off the bolt. Be sure to anti seize all your hardware during this install process for future repair ease.
Note the location of the alignment position on the upper hardware. If you are using the Adjustable Arms, Please note these are for professional use and will require a professional to dial in correctly for the desired use.
