through the axle fitting, consists of replacing the bushing and grommet in the shock absorber arm, and the rubber bushings and retainers at the axle

fitting.

The arm bushing and grommet is replaced in the same manner as on the single-acting units where the double clevis and link eye bolt type link is used.

Assembly of the link pin, serrated end in small hole of clevis, is the same as on single-acting type. Instead of the cotter pin, a lockwasher and nut is used on the link pin.

At the threaded lower end of this link, rubber bushings and retainers are used above and below the axle fitting, with a nut on the end of the link to hold it to the axle fitting. No special tools are required to replace these parts.
