 Re-install the rear coil springs and any of the
components that were removed during the PRE-
PARE VEHICLE FOR CHASSIS MODIFICATIONS
section of this installation.
‰ 6. ADJUST BUMP SHOCK POSITION
The ideal bump shock position is determined by the vehicle
suspension and varies for each application.
 To properly set the bump shock position for your
vehicle, you must first decide the point at which
suspension compression should be limited. Take
into consideration coil springs, shock absorbers,
tire clearance, or any other factors that cause the
vehicle to bottom out.
IMPORTANT: Because it replaces the original rubber
bump stop, the bump shock should determine the limit
of compression travel. The bump shock should be
fully compressed when the suspension reaches maxi-
mum desired compression.
 With the vehicle on level ground and the suspen-
sion at full droop, extend the Bump Shock Assem-
bly (A) to the desired position.
IMPORTANT: Internal threads of Jounce Adapter must
remain fully engaged with Bump Shock Assembly at
all times. Never operate vehicle when more than 3.25”
of bump shock threads are exposed as illustrated
above.
 Once the Bump Shock Assembly (A) is properly
adjusted for your application, lock in place by turn-
ing the Bump Shock Nut (B) clockwise until it con-
tacts the Jounce Adapter (C) and tighten. HINT:
A spanner or strap wrench is useful for tightening
Jounce Adapter Nut.
IMPORTANT: The suspension must be fully cycled to
test for bump shock alignment and interference issues
before the vehicle can be safely operated. The bump
shock must contact the center portion of the lower
spring pad at full compression, and there should be no
interference between the bump shock and coil spring
at full extension.
