Synergy 5012 - Jeep TJ/YJ/CJ Universal Shock Hoop - Manual (Page 5)

LIMIT STRAPS / TABS
**Limit straps help prevent damage to expensive shocks and suspension components
caused by over extension. They are highly recommended for use in any long travel off
road suspensions system.**
8) The rear frame pad provided in this kit has a built in tab to be used as a limit strap
attachment point on the frame side.
9) For the axle side, a LCA bolt or shock bolt can be used to attach the other end of the
limit strap. However, if no satisfactory bolt / bolt hole exists, the flat tab provided in
the kit can be welded on where desired.
a. With limit strap attachment points located, set vehicle suspension at full
droop and subtract about 1” – 1.5” to determine limit strap length. As a
general rule of thumb, limit straps tend to stretch ½” for every 12” of
length so plan accordingly as they will stretch slightly over time.
