NOTE: Due to space constraints if you are installing a PRO COMP steering stabi-
lizer kit 217513, install the mount and hardware detailed in the following step at this time. If you are
not installing a stabilizer at this time it is highly recommended that you follow the next step anyway
to aid in a potential future installation.
15. Place the center link drop (PN 90-2354) on a bench and insert the sleeves (PN 90-2394), mount
(if applicable) and 3/8” X 2 1/2” bolts with the threads facing the front of the vehicle through the
holes on the passenger side of the center link drop. Use ILLUSTRATION 8 to show the proper ori
entation of center link drop in the vehicle and location of stabilizer mount. Torque bolts to 20 ft
lbs.
16. Install the center link drop (PN 90-2354) to the pitman arm and idler arm using the OEM nuts.
Notice that the center link drop taper ends are welded at slightly different angles on each end of the
drop. There is a mount for the steering stabilizer on either end. This mount is oriented to the top
right of the center link drop. Use ILLUSTRATION 8 for reference. When properly installed, the
center link will NOT contact the differential and the support links will align properly.
17. Connect the factory center link to the center link drop (PN 90-2354) and the steering links (PN
90-4053) from the front cross member using the 1/2” X 4” bolts, spacers (PN 90-2055), and re-
ducer cones (PN 90-4036) provided. Follow the assembly shown in ILLUSTRATION 8.
NOTE: If you are installing steering stabilizer kit 217513 do so at this time.
