4040 SIT-SHOWER-SHAVE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL NOTES:
• These instructions are also available on our website; www.synergymfg.com. Check the website before
you begin for any updated instructions and additional photos for your reference.
• This is a universal kit that can be installed on any water cooled vehicle which runs at an approximate
water temp between 190-210 deg F.
• The following instructions show the installation of a complete 4040 Sit Shower Shave Kit onto a 2012
Jeep JK wrangler. Use these instructions as a guide when installing it on another vehicle.
• Installation of this kit will require the use of simple hand tools, a drill with a quality ¼” diameter metal
cutting drill bit, and some thread sealant or Teflon tape.
• **NOTE** Installation can be done on either inlet or outlet side of heater core. To determine which
side is the inlet side, start vehicle after it has completely cooled and take note of which heater core line
gets hot first, this is the inlet side of the heater core. It is important to determine this now because some
vehicles feature a check valve on the heater core which will only allow coolant to flow freely if the
heater is running.
a) Splicing into the inlet side of the heater core will allow for a consistent operating temperature of
the shower. However, the ability to adjust the temperature of the shower itself is not as effective
when adjusting heater output in the vehicle. Thus, the shower will really only run at one given
temperature.
b) Splicing into the outlet side of the heater core will likely require the heater to be running in the
vehicle for the shower to get up to temp. However, the ability to better control the temperature
of the shower is more effective by adjusting heater output in the vehicle. Thus, the shower
temperature can vary more by turning the heater from low to high.
c) Installation is up to the installer. The following instructions are done on the inlet side for
simplicity’s sake.
