Note: There are six snap ring grooves located on the new Skyjacker

strut body for 1" to 3" lift heights. The ring is installed in the second

groove from the top when shipped. This will yield 2.5" - 3" of lift. The

upper groove is only to be used when 2.5" - 3" of lift is desired, after

aftermarket accessories have been added that weigh the front of the

vehicle down (ie. winch, after market bumper, & etc). The lower

grooves can be used if you would like to keep the factory rake of the

vehicle (front of vehicle lower than the rear).

Once the coil spring

seat retaining ring has been installed, check all suspension

components for any contact or interference. If suspension

component contact or interference is present, lower the coil

spring seat by lowering the coil spring seat retaining ring until

no contact or interference is present.

hardware.
