NOTE: In the following steps, take care not to trap debris between the
balls and their sockets.
1. Attach one pair of outer arms to each inner arm.
a. As illustrated in Figure 3-10 , the outer arm assembly is most easily achieved
by pivoting the two arms away from each other lengthwise. This requires the
least stretching of the spring to attach the ball joints.
b. Slip one ball joint socket over the corresponding ball.
c. Swing the bottom end of the outer arm pair sideways as you slip the other
ball joint socket over the corresponding ball.
2. Attach one pair of outer arms to each of the four pairs of ball studs on the
platform.
The platform is installed flange-down.
NOTE: Ensure that the numbers on the platform match the numbers on
the end caps of the inner arms. This will place the platform tool flange
closest to the diagnostic display. See
“Clocking the Platform to the Base”
on page 46 .
a. Swing the bottom end of the outer arm pair to the right, as far as possible.
b. Slip the left ball joint socket over the left ball stud. (Move the platform as
needed to do this.)
c. Move the platform and outer arm pair to the left as you slip the right ball
joint socket over the corresponding ball.
