High Lifter Lift Kit for Kawasaki Prairie 400 (97-02) - Manual (Page 2)

Front Lift
1) Place jack under center of ATV front end and lift until front wheels clear the ground. Be careful to
support ATV properly so that it is securely supported but so that A-arms and shocks can droop to
full extension.
2) Remove front wheels.
3) Remove C-clip and nut at the top of the strut.
4) Screw bracket “A” on top of strut to the same torque specifications as the nut.
5) Place the top adapter “A” through the top of the strut mount, and screw the original nut on the top of
bracket “A” securing it to the strut mount. Tighten this nut to the required manufacturer
specifications and replace the factory C-clip.
6) Repeat the procedure for the other side.
7) Install the wheels, torque wheel lug nuts to manufacturer’s specifications, lower and remove jack.
Check for clearance problems or misalignment.
Rear Lift
1) Place jack under ATV at the rear of the bottom skid plate and lift until the weight is off of the
suspension. Be careful to secure the ATV properly so as not to fall off the jack.
2) Remove the bottom of the shock from the shock mount on the axle.
3) After removing the shock, jack the ATV up 1”-2” further.
4) Place Bracket “C” between the shock mounts to prevent shock mount from bending when tightening
bolts.
5) Place Bracket “B” between the shock and shock mount with the notched out ends facing downward.
Insert a new 12x55mm bolt to secure bracket “B” to the shock mount and the shock. Place a washer
on bolt prior to fastening nut.

7) Install the wheels, torque wheel lug nuts to manufacturer’s specifications, lower and remove jack.
