    NOTE: If all four cap screws are loosened, tie rod may drop down allowing lower boot (I) to rub on the lower clamp. To avoid premature wear on lower boot, tie rod must be centered between the upper and lower clamps. Cap screws on the solid end of the clamp must be tightened before cap screws on the split end of the clamp. Use a crisscross method to tighten cap screws. If all four screws are loosened:

    • Tighten clamp solid end cap screws (C and D).
    • Tighten clamp split end cap screws (E and F).
