*We recommend leaving all of the bolts slightly loose until all the parts are installed.

Then go back and torque each bolt to 32 ft. lbs.

Install the smaller rear bracket using 2 "A" spacers between the bracket and passenger cylinder head using two bolts and stainless washers as shown.

    

Next install the front bracket using the longest socket head bolt in the top hole and 1 "B" spacer between the two brackets and one "A" spacer between the rear bracket and the cylinder head.
    

Install the other two "B" spacers between the brackets.

Both of the bolts are countersunk and thread into the rear plate.

Leave all of the bolts loose as shown.

Now install the R4 compressor between the two brackets using the two 110mm bolts with stainless washers on both sides and the lock nuts on the rear side.

        

While lifting the weight of the compressor.

Tighten all bolts to 28 ft lbs. Start with thecounter sunk bolts first, rear bracket to cylinder head, then the front bracket, and finally the compressor.

Next install the top idler pulley.

Spacer E is placed agaist the front side of the front bracket.

This spaces the pulley further off of the front bracket.

This bolt comes with a locknut and stainless washer for the rear to keep this locked into place.

Tighten the bolt to 28 ft. lbs. then tighten the locknut on the rear to 28 ft. lbs.
