1. The upper shock mount must be
welded to the frame. It may need to
be cut down to match the stroke of
the air spring and suspension. Make
sure that when the suspension is fully
compressed the shock is about ¼”
from being fully compressed. Just
tack weld the mount for now and
install the lower shock stud and
shock. The upper mount will use a 2
½” x ½” bolt and Nylok nut. Check
to make sure the shock does not
bottom out when the suspension
is fully compressed.
If the shock
bottoms out it could damage the
shock or shock mounts.

2. A .625” hole must be drilled in the
lower control arm for the Cantilever
pin to attach. This hole will be drill
directly behind the factory shock
mount, but may need to be moved in
or our slightly to allow for maximum
tire clearance and turning radius.
