Synergy 8025 - Jeep JK Synergy Stage 1.5 Suspension System - Manual (Page 8)

REAR SUSPENSION
11. REMOVE STOCK PARTS
• Disconnect the rear track bar at the axle bracket. It is easiest to do this when the
suspension is at the ride height position
• Use a floor jack under the center of axle to lift the tires off the ground. Place jack
stands under each frame rail just in front of the lower control arm brackets to support the
weight of the Jeep. Raise or lower the floor jack under the rear axle to remove and install
the suspension components. The jack should stay under the axle the entire time the rear
suspension is being installed.
• Now remove these suspension components and retain the hardware in this order
• Rear Wheel/Tires
• Loosen both the upper and lower control arm bolts
• Remove the shocks
• Remove the parking brake cable wire formed retainer from the floor
• Remove the brake line frame bracket bolts, but do not open the hydraulics
• Disconnect the parking brake cables at the axle end
• Lower the axle and remove the springs, make sure the wheel speed sensors
wires are not overextended, loosen any retaining clips if needed to allow
enough slack
12. INSTALL BRAKE EXTENTIONS
● Find the correct rear brake line brackets, the rear brackets are the longer ones, and
there is a left and a right. Install the new extension bracket to the frame with the stock
bolt.
● Bolt the brake line to the extension bracket using the new supplied hardware. You
will need to straighten the brake hard line with your hands to give enough slack for the
brake line to reach the extension bracket.
13. INSTALL BUMPSTOP SPACERS
• Install the new rear bump stop spacers. The bump stop spacers should be oriented so
they lean forward. See Figure 121. Use a washer under the head of the 3/8 bolts and use
the serrated nut on the bottom. Tighten to 30 ft-lbs.
