1. With the truck on the ground, remove the track bar bolt at the differential Lift truck up, and make sure it is safe by using jack stands or a 2-post lift that locks in place.
1. Support the front axle with a support jack equipped with the proper fixture.
2. Undo the sway bar links.
3. Undo the four U-bolts on the passenger side leaf springs ONLY. Make sure the differential is supported as it may fall at this point.
4. If the truck has hydraulic shocks, just slide them up and out of the way. If the truck has gas shocks, it will be easier to remove them.
5. On the drivers side, LOOSEN but DO NOT REMOVE the U-bolts on the drivers side leaf springs. This will enable the passenger side to sag enough to get the Lift and Level kit into place.

Your new Penske Racing Shock comes pre-adjusted at baseline settings. However, you must check your rear sag before you race! This is very important for optimum performance.

Setting the Sag*
STEP 1
1) Without a rider on the bike, have an assistant lift the rear of the motorcycle until the rear wheel is off the ground slightly.
2) Using a tape measure, measure the distance between the axle center line and a convenient location on the rear subframe (Figure 1).
3) Record this measurement as “A”.

Vehicle: 1997 740iL, however, I think this applies to all 95-01.
Symptom: trunk may not stay fully open or may free fall when closing. In my case, the trunk would free fall closed and unless I was holding it carefully, it would slam shut.
The procedure took only about 30 minutes and was very easy. The outcome was excellent making the project well worth it and highly recommended.
