 Remove all of the factory paint from the surface of
the upper spring retainer. HINT: Emory cloth or a
suitable stripping tool is useful for paint removal.
‰ 3. SHORTEN THREADED TUBE OF ACOS
On vehicles with a net lift height of less than 1", it will
be necessary to shorten the Threaded Tube (A) to pro-
vide sufficient clearance between the Bump Stop (G)
and the axle pad. This step will reduce the maximum
adjustment height from 3.5" to 2.5". Example situa-
tion: Coils have sagged 1" below stock as a result of a
heavy bumper, ACOS installed to reset ride height to
factory - will require this trimming procedure. If you
have questions about your application or this modifi-
cation please contact JKS Manufacturing Tech Sup-
port.
 Measuring 1.0” from the threaded end, mark a line
on the Threaded Tube (A).
 Remove the excess portion by cutting completely
through the Threaded Tube (A) at the location
marked in the previous step. HINT: A band saw is
useful for cutting the
 Threaded Tube, although a sharp hack saw with
an appropriate fine tooth blade or cutting wheel
may also be used. Use extreme care to avoid
damaging remaining threads.
 Inspect end of Threaded Tube (A) for damaged
threads and repair as needed. HINT: A 16TPI
thread restoring file or equivalent is useful for
repairing threads.
‰ 4. SET ADJUSTER RING FOR DESIRED
RIDE HEIGHT
 Apply spray lubricant to threads of Threaded Tube
(A).
 Install Adjuster Ring (B) by threading it onto the
Threaded Tube (A).
 Slide Isolator Pad (C) onto Threaded Tube (A) until
flush with Adjuster Ring (B).
IMPORTANT: Vehicle ride height is determined by
measuring the distance between the bottom of upper
spring mount and bottom of Isolator Pad, and then
subtracting 1/2” (0.50 in.).
X" - 1/2" = RIDE HEIGHT*
* Represents increase in ride height over OE Suspension
