c. Determine the desired orientation of the Stabilizer
Bracket and attach it to the bottom of the Steering
Module. Place a Lock Washer (Item #18) on each of
the two 5/16" Cap Screws (Item #17).
d. Use the 5/16" Cap Screws to secure the Stabilizer
Bracket to the Steering Module and tighten with a
1/4" Allen wrench. Tighten to 10 ft-lbs.
e. Measure the proper length of the Aluminum Rod by
standing it, with the threaded end down, onto the
deck surface so that it sits vertically right next to the
Stabilizer Bracket.
f. Mark the Aluminum Rod with a pencil or marker 3/4"
past the top of the Stabilizer Bracket.
g. Cut the Aluminum Rod with a Hack Saw at the
mark. Round the cut edge of the rod with a file or
sandpaper to remove any sharp edges.
