INSTALLATION
-
Using a properly rated jack, raise the front of the vehicle and support the frame rails with jack stands. Ensure the jack stands are secure and set properly before lowering the jack. NEVER WORK UNDER AN UNSUPPORTED VEHICLE. Remove the front wheels.
-
Using a floor jack under the front end, slightly raise the front axle housing to remove the weight of the axle off the bolt. Remove the lower shock bolt (Make sure the axle is well supported).
-
Use a 16MM to remove the upper shock stem nut and remove the OEM shock.
-
Use the supplied 3/8” x 1.0” bolt, nut and washers to locate the lower shock doubler bracket (124021) in the correct location outward of the OEM shock mount. There is a factory hole for the 3/8” bolt. [FIGURE 1]
-
Line up the doubler plate eyelet and the OEM shock mount by sliding the supplied 1/2” X 4.5” bolt through the doubler plate and the OEM shock mount. Tighten the 3/8” locator bolt to secure the doubler plate in position.
-
Use the (159007) weld sleeve to keep the space between the doubler plate and OEM shock as well as the (139004) spacer sleeve to keep the space between the OEM shock mount tabs. Mark on the axle to sand. Remove bracket and sand to bare metal then reinstall bracket and spacers. Weld the doubler plate to the axle housing, a professional welder is highly recommended! [FIGURE 2] NOTE : Failure to use weld sleeve may result in inadequate spacing.
-
Spray paint the welded portion of the (124021) doubler plate and factory axle housing to prevent corrosion.
-
Install the shock between the doubler plate and the outside of the OEM shock mount. Use the provided spacer sleeve to fill the void between the OEM shock tabs. Install hardware in the following order with the head of the bolt towards the wheel: 1/2” x 4.5” bolt, 1/2” washer, (124021) doubler plate, heim spacer, shock rod end, heim spacer, OEM shock tab, (139004) spacer sleeve, OEM shock tab, 1/2” washer, 1/2” lock nut. [Torque to 65 ft-lbs] [FIGURE 3]
-
Use a jack to lower the axle housing far enough to slide the top of the shock into position in the OEM shock location. Install stem hardware as seen in diagram. Raise axle housing to aid with stem installation into the shock mount. Install the lock nut until lock is engaged. Do not overtighten bushing assembly as this can lead to premature bushing wear. Failure caused by incorrect installation of bushings is not covered under DYNATRAC’s warranty policy. [SEE DIAGRAM]
NOTE: 2012-2018 Models will require trimming of the plastic box located directly above the passenger side upper shock mount in order to gain access to the upper shock mount nut. [FIGURE 4]
-
Repeat steps 2-9 for opposite side.
-
Reinstall the wheels and lower the vehicle back to the ground. [Torque lugs to factory spec]
VERIFY ALL FASTENERS ARE PROPERLY TORQUED BEFORE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.
RETORQUE ALL NUTS, BOLTS AND LUGS AFTER 100 MILES AND PERIODICALLY THEREAFTER.
