Step 16
Locate the two alloy rear pod plates, the alloy rear
pod plate spacer tube 2 4-40 x 3/8” flat head screws
and 4 4-40 x ¼” flat head screws.
Attach the alloy pod plates to the lower carbon pod
plate with the 4 4-40 x ¼” screws.
Attach the alloy rear pod plate spacer tube to the
allow rear pods with the 2 4-40 x 3/8” screws.
Step 18

threaded spacers as shown with 4-40 x ¼” flat head
screws.
Step 18
Locate and install the carbon damper tube/body
mount /brace as shown with 4-40 x ¼” flat head
screws.
Step 19
1. Apply 10,000wt silicon diff oil to the pistons
and insert them into the damper tubes.
2. Attach the alloy ball studs to the bottom of the
pod top plate and the tops pf the side wings as
shown in step 19. Secure them with alloy lock
nuts
3. Attach the carbon pod top plate to the alloy
rear pod plates
4. Snap the ball cups of the assembled damper
tubes onto the pivot balls on the pod top plate
and cross brace.
Note:
If you feel play between your ball cups and ball
studs, you can place a single layer of plastic
bag material between your ball cup and ball
stud then snap them together. This will cut
and insert a disc of plastic into your ball cup
reducing or eliminating the play. If you still
feel play, repeat the process. We find you
usually need one to two layers to get the
proper feel, no play but totally free movement.
Locate the damper tube parts bag, the rear pod top
plate and 4 4-40 x ¼” flat head screws..
1.Thread a 4-40 x 3/8” set screw into each of the 4
ball cups from the damper parts bag.
2.Thread a ball cup/set screw assembly into the
ends of each of the damper tube pistons and
damper tubes.
