Engine Torque Link Installation Procedure

1) Remove front engine mount upper bolt with 14mm socket. The front engine mount is located on the timing cover side of the engine also known as the front of the engine.
2) Install the small torque link bracket as shown in picture. Use supplied M10 bolt and tighten to finger tight. A 13mm wrench or socket is used for this bolt. Do not torque down this bolt just yet.
3) Remove power steering reservoir tube mounting bracket bolt with 10mm socket.
4) Remove alternator wire bracket bolt with 10mm socket.
5) Remove ground terminal bolt with 10mm socket.
6) Install the large torque link bracket as shown in picture. Use supplied M6 bolts with a flat and lock washer and tighten to finger tight. Make sure you install the power steering tube mounting bracket, the alternator wire bracket, and ground terminal on top of the NWP Torque Link Bracket. Note: Only 3 bolts can be used on the 95-99 Maxima.
7) Install the torque link assembly as shown in picture and make sure everything fits properly. Insert the clevis pins with the safety clips to connect the torque link assembly to the brackets. The torque link features opposing threads. The side of the link coupler with the line denotes left handed threads. Make sure the torque link is installed with the side with the line connected to the upper bracket as shown in the picture.
8) Once everything is installed loosely and fits properly, tighten the front engine mount bolt to 40 ft-lbs with a 13mm socket.
