One-Day Suburban Build: Part One
- Next, we removed the lower strut bolts.
9. The removal of the aforementioned items created
enough play to pry the lower control arm down and
slide the Superlift leveling spacer in place.10. And just like that, we were using the supplied
bolts to reattach the strut to the LCA. Then we
reattached the tie-rod ends and sway bar mounts.- Moving on to the brakes, we started by
removing the front caliper bolts and moving the
caliper out of the way for just a second.
12. Then we removed the factory rotor and
scrapped it.13. The EBC rotor went right back on in its place.- Next, we loaded in the EBC
orange Stuff brake pads.
15. We tightened the caliper bolts back up
and the front end was done.16. Out back, we repeated the same process
starting with the caliper bolts, then moved the
caliper aside and tossed the stock rotor.- The new rotor slides
on, and the new pads were
loaded in. - With the caliper bolted
back in place, we could call
the brakes done. - The New Year Tire crew
made quick work of the tire
mounting. They specialize
in big wheels, so these 20s
were a walk in the park.
