Next, turn the shock over and tighten thespring seat against the spring. After thespring seat makes contact with the spring,turn it one-half of a revolution. This will adda small amount of preload to the coil spring.Tighten the set screw locking ball with anallen wrench. With the spring seat at thisposition, adjusting the spring seat up ordown 1/2-inch can make small changes inthe vehicle ride height.The designed ride height of the suspensionhas the compressed coilover at 12” eye toeye. If you install a 195/65-15 tire on a 6”wide 15” diameter 3 1/2” backspace wheel,the tire will have 6 1/2” of thread width be 8”wide at the section, have a mounteddiameter of 25” and a rolling radius of 12”.This will hold the bottom of thecrossmember 4 1/2” off the ground. The tirewill hold the spindle centerline 12” off theground. If you use a larger or smallerdiameter tire, the crossmember clearancewill change accordinglyThese are the stainless steel shockmounting spuds used at the top and bottomof the shocks. If you did not purchasethese, use the 1/2 x 2-1/2 bolts and locknutsprovided with your suspension kit.Insert the shock from the bottom.
