• Always use a chassis lift for the installation of shocks, and make certain that the raised vehicle
is securely attached to the lift to prevent the vehicle from slipping, falling, or moving during the
installation process.
• DO NOT install any FOX product without the necessary special tools, expertise and chassis lift or you
will subject yourself to the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH. If you elect to not use a chassis lift
(which may result in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH), ensure that the vehicle is: (1) on level ground, (2) that
all tires on the ground during installation are blocked to prevent vehicle movement, (3) that at least two
tires are on the ground at all times, and (4) that adequately secured jack stands are used to support the
vehicle. NEVER get under the vehicle until you have checked to ensure that the vehicle will be stable
during installation.
• FOX direct-replacement shocks are designed to fit your vehicle’s shock mounts without modification
except the reservoir placement on specific models and applications.
