WARNING
Coil Springs on a shock are compressed and contain high
energy. The coil spring must be removed from the shock
correctly by a person who has knowledge and experience in
how to do this safely. The spring, if not handled properly can
suddenly release its energy causing bodily harm to the worker
and anyone nearby.
Refer to Figure 2:
1. Compress coil spring (#4) 1/2" to 3/4" with a
mechanical device that will safely hold the spring in
its compressed state.
2. Unscrew threaded spacer (#1). Make note that the
threads on the spacer are not full length and that the
end without threads goes on the rod first.
3. Remove spring cap (#2) and spring keeper (#3).
4. Slowly release compression from coil spring (#4),
and remove coil spring.
5. Make sure bump stop (#6), plastic washer (#7) and
steel washer (#8) stay on the shock (#9).
6. Insert smallend of high rate coilspring (#10)onto the
shock against plastic washer (#7).
7. Compress spring overall length to be between 7 1/4"
and 7 1/2" length with a mechanical device that will
safely hold the spring at this length. When
compressed, the spring will contain 315 to345 lbs. of
compressed force.
IMPORTANT: Coil spring must be compressed by a
person who has proper knowledge on how to safely
remove the spring from the shock.
8. Install spring keeper (#3) and spring cap (#2) over

rod end (#5) and then screw it on completely until the
spring cap (#2) has bottomed out against the rod

spring cap (#2) and spring keeper (#3) were not
properly installed and should be reinstalled.
