Got the kit today, but have questions about the parts. If any of you have received the kit C7TZ-5400-S from Dennis Carpenter, can you help me out? The bushings were marked with the serial number that coincides with the instructions, but the all the numbers on the bushings were not clearly marked. The washers were all different sizes, and I only received 2 nuts instead of 4. Here are my questions...
1) There were 4 different washer sizes. The smallest one's were easy to figure out where they go, but the other 3 I am unsure of.
a) 2 large washers
b) 2 a little smaller than A above
c) 4 a little smaller than B above
2) Also, There were 2 sizes of sleeves. I assume one size goes on the front and the other on the back, but which is which? Cannot tell from the instructions.
3) I only received 2 nuts. Shouldn't there be 4?
4) One last thing on the bushings themselves. I can easily differentiate between the front and back top bushings as they are different shapes, but want to verify on the front and rear bottom bushings. Do the smaller one's go on the front or the back.
Thank you in advance,
Steven

Here is a visual that Keith posted on the tech/tutorial section:

Should help you see how the bushings go. I would think you need four bolts according to the picture. You may need to call DC and double check.

I wonder how old that picture is. Mine did not come with the special top hat looking washers. Wonder if they have changed the kit...JWW wrote:Here is a visual that Keith posted on the tech/tutorial section:

That was scanned from the dealer parts catalog.
Give DC a call. Those people seem to be very helpful. I'm sure they can answer you questions.
