12.Install the new strut spacer on the top of the factory strut using the factory hardware making sure to position the strut
spacer as shown in Photo 7with the flat part of the spacer toward the frame rail. Tighten hardware.
13.Install the shim plates on the strut as shown in Photo 8. The shim plates are included to allow the height to be set as
needed. If less lift is desired, one or both of the shim plates may be left off the strut spacer and will in turn give less
lift. Each spacer shim plate will give approx 3/8” of lift. Refer to measurement taken in Step 2.
14.Install the strut in the factory mount with the supplied 3/8” nuts and lock washers on the upper mount and the factory
hardware on the bottom arm THE STRUT SPACER IS NOT SYMETRICAL, THE FLAT ON THE SPACER MUST
FACE THE FRAME ON EACH SIDE. Using a 9/16” wrench on the upper and a 22mm socket on the lower mount
tighten the hardware.
