Install Rear

Suspension

1. Block the front tires and raise the rear

of the vehicle. Support the frame with
jack stands forward of the rear springs.

2. Remove the rear wheels.

3. Unbolt the rear shock mounting bolts

on both sides of the vehicle. It may be
necessary that you slightly raise the
axle to unload the shocks for removal.

4. Install the new Trailmaster rear shocks

(

to the upper and lower

mounting points. Torque shock hard-
ware to manufacturers specifications.

5. Check all hardware at this time to en-

sure that everything is tight. Check for
adequate clearance on all repositioned
brake lines and emergency brake ca-
bles. Make sure you check with the
suspension fully extended, and com-
pressed.

6. Reinstall the wheels and lower the ve-

hicle to the ground. Torque the lug
nuts according to the wheel manufac-
turers recommendations.

7. Torque all bolts to factory specifica-

tions. Re-torque all bolts after 500
miles.
