Rear Axle and Suspension WARNING! Do not replace U–bolts and nuts with common U–bolts or standard nuts. These parts are critical to vehicle safety. If the wrong U–bolts or nuts are used, the axle could loosen or separate from the vehicle and cause a serious injury accident. Use only U–bolts and nuts of SAE Grade 8 specification or better. WARNING! Do not operate the vehicle if the U– bolts are not properly tightened. Loose U–bolts do not properly secure the axle to the suspension. This could cause loss of vehicle control and an injury accident. Loose U–bolts can also cause uneven tire wear and poor alignment. Suspension alignment should be checked when any one of the following conditions exist: • Discovery of loose suspension fasteners (Any torque below the recommended torque value.). • Discovery of elongated holes in a suspension component. • Bushing replacement. • Excessive or abnormal tire wear. NOTE: To ensure an accurate torque reading, use properly maintained and calibrated torque wrenches.
