Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before removing the old shock absorber. Verify that the loop bushing and sleeve mounts match the specified dimensions (3/4" sleeve ID x 1.75" sleeve OAL) for proper fitment. Avoid compressing the shock absorber beyond its specified compressed length during installation. Check for any signs of wear on mounting hardware and replace if necessary to maintain secure attachment.
