BEFORE YOU START
Eurowise recommends this system be installed by a professional technician. In addition to these instructions, professional knowledge of disassembly/ reassembly procedures and post installation checks must be known.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
- Special literature required: OE Service Manual for model/year of vehicle. Refer to manual for proper disassembly/reassembly procedures of OE and related components.
- Larger rim and tire combinations may increase leverage on suspension, steering, and related components. When selecting combinations larger than OE, consider the additional stress you could be inducing on the OE and related components.
- Secure and properly block vehicles prior to installation & always wear safety glasses when using power tools.
- If installation is to be performed without a hoist, make sure bolts are all torqed with the weight of the vehicle on the ground. failing to do this can result to premature bushing wear and, also uneven vehicle height front to rear as well as creaking and squeaking noise.
With front coilovers removed please place the matching side next to your OEM strut assembly and clock the coilover before putting in the vehicle. It does not need to be perfect. After its mounted on the top, you can twist the body in place if needed.
Installation Steps:
- Place rear OEM strut in a spring compressor to complete the rear coilover installation.
- Remove the OEM nut (18mm) with the spring tension compressed.
- Transfer the OEM rear mounting bracket onto the Eurowise Gen 2 rear coilovers.
- Remove the OEM strut and insert the Eurowise coilover into the spring compressor. Preset rear coilovers to about 1-inch gap for a 1.5-inch lift.
- Remove the OEM bushing and plastic spring washer inside the upper mount.
- Install the plastic washer included with Eurowise coilovers and the aluminum upper mount into the OEM mount.
- Transfer it onto the Eurowise coilover.
- The coilover will come with a steel sleeve that should stay in place.
- Install the OEM upper mount and provided washer.
- Install the OEM rubber mount, provided nut, and tighten to 45 ft lbs.
- Tighten down the new nut with the OEM shock bushing on top.
Ensure the bushing is centered before and after tightening.
