10. Now that all the shock and air bump brackets are tack welded into place, we

recommend that you bolt the shocks into place without the coil springs and cycle the
suspension to check that every thing clears. Make sure that the air bumps bottom out
before the shocks do. Also check for brake line, driveline and steering linkage over-
extension.


11. If everything fits and clears well, weld the brackets to the frame and axle mounts:

a) Weld all edges that the coil over shock bracket and air bump bracket contact the

frame. Weld both inner vertical seams and the top of the frame between the shock
bracket and frame. Weld the rear vertical seam above and below the brake line
bracket hole. Weld the front, top and bottom of the air bump bracket. Also weld
the back of the air bump mount to the front of the shock bracket.

b) Weld all edges that the lower shock bracket contacts the axle tube, front, bottom

and both sides.


12. Clean the welds and paint the new brackets and frame.
13. Assemble the front suspension and coil over shocks. Torque the ½” shock bolts to 80

ft-lbs and the bump stop pinch bolts to 10 ft-lbs.
