This bracket replaces the Mustang strut. Be sure to use the cotter pins included with the ball joint.
Torque the ball joint to 95-122Nm (70-90 lbft). If the top of the crown nut goes past the hole in the
ball joint, use the spacer that comes with the ball joint.

and torque to 135-149Nm (100-110 lbft).
Note: Using the 87-93 spindles, use the hole closest to the ball joint and the third hole down. Using
a 94-04 Spindles, attach the bracket using the bottom and third hole up so that the ball joint
is further away from the spindle.
