45) Temporarily install rear shocks on factory upper mounts. On some models, the factory upper mounts
may need to be trimmed for shock clearance.
46) Attach weld on shock brackets to lower end of shocks with ½" bolts, spacers (on insides of brackets),
flat washers, and lock nuts. Raise rear axle until full weight of vehicle is on it. Remove jack stands from
frame and place below axle. Lower vehicle onto axle jack stands so full vehicle weight is on the axle (ride
height), position driver side lower end of shock on axle leaving 6" – 7" of exposed rod. Cover shock rod to
protect from weld spatter and tack brackets in place. Repeat on passenger side.

Use shoulder washers to compensate for oversize factory hole in upper mounts. (photo 39).
