Install the Fabtech impact strut mounts.
IMPORTANT: Follow my instructions carefully when dealing with the impact struts otherwise you'll never get these sons of bitches installed!
Install the impact strut mounts to the factory crossmember with the supplied 3/8" x 5" bolts, nuts, and washers.
Locate the holes in the center of the impact strut mounts.
Using a drill with a 7/16" or 1/2" drill bit, carefully drill up completely through the transmission crossmember (yellow arrows).
Install the supplied 3/8" x 3" bolts, nuts, and washers with the bolt head facing down and the threads facing up and
leave them loose.
Now loosen the four bolts that hold the transmission crossmember and impact strut mounts in place.
Do not remove the bolts - just loosen them.
It it important that the impact strut mounts have as much movement as possible when trying to get the impact struts installed.
