Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before removing the old shock absorber. Verify that the eyelet mounts (12.4mm) align correctly with the vehicle’s suspension points. It is recommended to replace shocks in pairs (front or rear) to maintain balanced handling. Check for any additional suspension components that may require inspection or replacement during installation.
