High Lifter Lift Kit for Honda Rubicon 500 (01-14) - Manual (Page 3)

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’s secure, but so that the A-arms and shocks can droop to full
extension.
2) Remove front wheels and shock.
3) Place spacer “F” on the inside of the shock mount, place bracket “A”, with the notch down and
inward over the shock mount. Secure this bracket with a 10x55mm bolt that is provided with the kit.
Note: The following 2 steps should be read and done at the same time, before action is taken.
Hint: Place 10x55mm bolt through bracket “B” before using the bolt to secure the bottom of the shock
eyelet.
4) Place bottom of shock inside top of bracket “A”, placing spacer “D” between the rear of the shock
eyelet and the inside of bracket “A”, securing it with a new 10x55mm bolt from front to back.
5) Next, place bracket “B” on bracket “A” (on the front outside of bracket “A”) securing it with a new
10mm Nut.
6) Install Bracket “B” on the front of the A-arm and Bracket “C” on the rear of the A-arm, then secure
with two ¼” x 1 ¾ ” Hex Head Bolts. Place a ¼” Lock Nut on the U-Bolt. Before tightening all nuts
ensure the angle of the shock is at the same original angle.
7) Tighten all bolts to manufacturer specifications.
8) Repeat this procedure for the other side.
9) Install the wheels, torque wheel lugs to manufacturer’s specifications, lower and remove jack. Check
for clearance problems or misalignment.
