Place thread locking compound on the
threads and install the Hardened Wash-
ers and Toplock Nuts on the Rods ex-
tending through the bottom of the deck.
Torque these rods to 230 Ft-Lbs. (See

Measure the distance that the rods ex-
tend through the top mount plate, this
needs to be 7/8" to 15/16". To get this
height adjust the two jam nuts by the
buck plate. Once the required distance
is achieved place thread locking com-
pound on the threads and lock the two
nuts together. (See FIGURE 92).
