9 Install complete! Remove all tools from underneath and safely lower the vehicle. Start the car allowing time for it to properly warm up, and go for a not too brisk test drive. Check the torque of all the hardware once the vehicle has cooled down, to ensure no components have loosened. We recommend checking again after 1000 miles. Copyright DD2, Inc. 9
