7. Chuck a 4” bi-metallic hole saw into a drill and cut out the top of the frame using the drill template to locate the
hole saw. The finished cut should look similar to IMAGE 6. De-bur the opening.
8. Properly positioning the upper shock perch requires an assembled coil-over and lower A-arm. In the images
shown below, we used a Viking coil-over with a lower shock T-bar. This allows the shock to bolt to the lower A-
arm without any modifications. Most coil-over shocks can be ordered this way or you can buy T-bar adapters
from quality coil-over manufacturers such as AFCO, QA1, and Viking.
NOTE: Most coil-overs will have an upper mount that is somewhere between 1”- 1.5” wide. Your BMR coil-
over brackets will easily accommodate this range.
9. Bolt the lower A-arm in place then bolt the BMR
coil-over brackets to the upper mount of your coil-
over as shown in IMAGE 7. Position the coil-over
assembly into the frame and mount to the lower A-
arm. Insure that the coil-over is centered in the
hole then position the coil-over brackets until they
fit with minimal weld gap as shown in IMAGE 7.
(NOTE: frame contours and OE welds vary slightly
and may require trimming of the bracket to get the
best fit. Also, varying widths of different brand
coil-overs will position the brackets differently,
requiring slight trimming to compensate.
10. Once the assembly is properly positioned and
centered in the opening, tack-weld the brackets into place.
