Step 1. Locate the forward rear suspension pivot (91)
(marked with an "F"). Place the suspension pivot (91) on the
chassis (27) so that the holes for the hinge pin point to the
rear, and the letter "F" is right-side up. Secure the suspension
pivot with two 4-40 x 3/8" flat head screws (31).
Step 2. Slide an inner rear hinge pin (92) through the
end of each of the two rear suspension arms [right (93) (marked
"L"), left (94) (marked "R")] farthest away from the shock mount-
ing holes.
Step 3. Position the two arms (93), (94) as shown so that
the shock mounting holes are on the top side. Insert the hinge
pins (92) into the forward suspension pivot (91). Place the
back rear suspension pivot (95) (marked "R") behind the sus-
pension arms (93), (94) so that the hinge pins (92) fit into the
rear suspension pivot (95), and the letter "R" is right-side up.
Secure the suspension pivot (95) with two 4-40 x 3/8" flat head
screws (31).

IMPORTANT NOTE: The rear suspension arms
are marked backwards. This was not a mistake. The arms
were originally used on another truck in the other configura-
tion. The GTX optimizes the location of the shocks and en-
hances the suspension geometry by mounting the arms in the
opposite direction. Be sure that the arm marked "L" is on the
right side and the arm marked "R" is on the left side.

Step 4. Slide a 3/8" ball stud (4) through the second
hole out, on the bottom row, on each side of the rear shock
tower (96). Secure the ball studs (4) with 4-40 lock nuts (5).
Place a "foam thing" (26) over each ball stud (4).
&
IMPORTANT NOTE: Refer to figure 40 to ensure
that the large hole in the rear shock tower is to the correct
side.
Step 5. Slide 4-40 x 3/4" cap head screws (1) through
the outside holes in the top of the shock tower (96). The screws
(1) should be inserted from the same side as the ball studs (4).
Thread a top shock mount bushing (3) onto each of the two
screws (1) and tighten.
