INSTALLATION
- Using a properly rated jack, raise the rear 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 rear wheels.
- Remove the lower nut from the shock bolt using a 18mm socket/wrench.
- With a floor jack under the axle housing, slightly raise the jack to remove tension from the shock, then loosen and remove the lower shock bolts using an 18mm socket/wrench. Ensure that the axle is well supported. Remove the (2) bolts holding the bar pin to the upper mount using a 16mm socket/wrench.
- Remove the rear shock.
- Apply a generous amount of grease to the inside of the upper bushings. [FIGURE 1]
- You will need to lightly chamfer the bar pin to allow it to slide in to the bushing easily. Slide the bar pin (chamfered end first) into the greased eyelet bushing as far as you can by hand, it will not be fully seated but it will be held in place until you press it in to the bushing. [FIGURE 2]
- Using a standard bench vise, push the bar pin through the bushing until it bottoms out on the opposite jaw of the vice. [FIGURE 3] NOTE: Be very careful not to crush the end of the bar pin!
- Remove the shock from the vise and press the bar pin through the rest of the way using a table top or work bench. If enough grease was applied it will slide through with very little effort. [FIGURE 4]
- Install the upper shock bar pin the stock location reusing the factory hardware. [Torque to factory spec] [FIGURE 5]
- Install lower shock mount into factory mount. Insert OEM bolt into the factory shock mount and tighten using a 18mm socket/ wrench. [Torque to factory spec] [FIGURE 6] NOTE: Lifting and/or lowering of the axle housing may be necessary to align the bushing sleeve with the holes in the factory mount.
- Repeat steps 2-10 for opposite side.
- Install wheels and lower vehicle back to the ground. [Torque lugs to factory spec]
VERIFY ALL FASTENERS ARE PROPERLY TORQUED BEFORE DRIVING VEHICLE.
RETORQUE ALL NUTS, BOLTS AND LUGS AFTER 100 MILES AND PERIODICALLY THEREAFTER.
