IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES:
✔ Mount using 5/16" SAE Grade 5 bolts with torque: 17–19 ft-lb (23–26 N·m)
✔ Tubing must be cut squarely and connected without kinks; keep tolerance within 7° on perpendicularity
✔ Confirm axle-side application—only for front service brakes on non-ABS systems
✔ Do not use on FMVSS-121 compliant vehicles unless specifically approved
