FOX SHOCK INSTALL

11. Take o the bolt connecting the shock to the
lower control arm (Fig. 8). Remove the stock shock
assembly.
NOTICE: The vehicle’s ride height is set for 2.25”
of lift (level) on a stock weight truck. If more lift
is desired, up to 3/8” preload can be added by
removing the spring, loosening the pinch bolt, and
spinning the preload collar. 1/4” of preload added
is equivalent to about a 1/2” of lift. If any preload
is added, the provided bump stop spacer must be
installed (Fig. 10) to prevent coil bind. If more than
3/8” additional preload is added an aftermarket
bumpstop spacer or longer bump stop will be
required.
