bolts. We recommend the following steps to ease installation. First install the
spring lower adjusting nuts on the shock body at the lowest setting. Slip the thrust
washers and spring onto the shock body. Without the top spring cap in place,
install the shock into the lower adapter mount with the 5/8 x 4 1/2” and into the
upper mount with the 3/8” bolts, washers, and nuts. Moving the spring side to
side should yield you enough room to tighten the two upper bolts. When the
shock is bolted tight, install the upper spring cap and then tighten the spring
adjusting nuts so that the spring is up against the top cap.
