In the packaging, this bolt is mounted on the rod end
M
of the front anti-rotation arm.
3) Lean the A-arm bracket
01
under the front lower
suspension arm taking care that the suspension table
tubes are firmly pressed down on half-moon brackets
of the A-arm bracket.
4) Fix the A-arm bracket to the suspension arm using the
front clamping plate
02
, the M12-1.75 x 70-mm carriage
bolt
03
, the M12 flat washer
05
and the M12-1.75 nylon
nut
04
