Shock Removal / Installation
1. Elevate the vehicle off the ground to relieve the
suspension load.
2. Support under A-arm or trailing arm.
3. Remove the upper and lower fasteners retaining the
shock and remove the shock from the vehicle. Discard
nuts and replace with new upon installation.
4. Reverse the procedure to reinstall the shock. Torque
new fasteners to specification (refer to exploded

Shock Replacement
1. Remove the shock and note the spring preload
distance (see Chapter 2 for factory settings).
2. Loosen the jam nut (if applicable) and adjustment ring
until the spring is loose. If needed, use a spring
compressor to compress the spring far enough to
remove the spring retainer.
3. Remove the spring and spring retainer from the
existing shock and install components onto the new
shock.
4. Install the spring(s) and spring retainer.
IMPORTANT: The spring retainer gap should be 180°
from the end of the spring upon installation.
5. Tighten the spring adjustment ring to set the preload
distance noted in Step 1 (see Chapter 2 for factory
settings).
6. Reinstall the shock onto the vehicle and torque new
fasteners to specification.
