1. Place a "A" Spacer (129) over each of the front Shock Shafts
and move them up against the Shock Cartridges.
2. Snap a 1/8" E-clip (41) into the groove closest to the Car-
tridge on all four shafts (capturing the Spacers on the front Shock
Shafts).
3. Slide a #56 (Red) Shock Piston (123) over the end of each
Shaft until it rests against the E-clip. Secure the Pistons to the Shafts
with another 1/8" E-clip placed in the groove now exposed on the top
of the Shaft.

1. Match the short, front Shock Bodies (125) to the short, front
Shock Shafts (118), and the long, rear Shock Bodies (126) to the
long, rear Shock Shafts (119).
2. Fill the Shock Bodies with 30wt.Shock Fluid (127) up to the
bottom of the threads inside the Shock Body.
*NOTE: Be sure to match the front Shock Shafts with the front
Shock Bodies.
3. Insert the shaft assembly with the Cartridge against either the
Shock Piston (123) (rear) or Shock Spacer (front). Slowly tighten the
Cartridge about two full turns only. With the Cartridge still slightly
loose, slowly push the Shock Shaft down into the Shock Body. This
will bleed the excess fluid out of the Shock. Once the Shock Shaft is
all the way in, tighten the Shock Cartridge the rest of the way.
4. Now, with the Shock Shaft still all the way in, secure the Car-
tridge by tightening it with pliers or a 7/16" Wrench approximately
1/8 of a turn. There should be no air in the Shocks as you push the
Shaft in and out. If there is, the Shock needs more Fluid. If the Shock
Shaft does not compress all the way, the Shock has too much Fluid in
it and more must be blead out by loosening the cartridge aproximately
1/4 turn and re-tightening (Shaft should be compressed during this
process).
*NOTE: If leaking persists around the outside, tighten the car-
tridge more. Be careful not to over tighten and strip the threads on
the Cartridge Body.
5. Repeat Steps 2-4 for the remaining three Shocks.
Step E-5
Shock Adjustment Nut Assembly:
*Note: This step will only be used for maintenance
purposes. These come pre-assembled in the kit.
*NOTE: Place a drop of Shock Fluid onto each O-ring before
installing it into the Shock Adjusting Nut.This will allow the Nut to
thread onto the Shock Body easily.
1. Place the O-ring (138) into the grove inside of the Shock Ad-
justing Nut (130), Be sure to seat the O-ring completely into the groove
as shown in Figure 46B.
