4. Due to manufacturing tolerances, the shock mounting bracket may stop the lower bracket
from sitting completely flat on the axle housing/jounce bumper pad. This may occur on
only one side of the vehicle. In such instances, it will be necessary to use a grinder to
trim the shock bracket until it is flat with the top of the axle housing (Figure 7).

5. After determining and installing the appropriate stackup, insert one carriage bolt (N) into
the forward hole of the lower bracket (Figure 8).
6. Set a roll plate (E) on both ends of the double convolute bellow (Figure 1). Kit 88128
with the single convolute bellow does not require roll plates.
7. Set the bellow assembly onto the lower bracket. The spacer assembly on the lower
bracket must be positioned on the same side as the air port on the top of the air spring.
8. Attach the lower bracket to the bellow using two bolts (H), two lock washers (I), and two
flat washers (J) (Figure 1).
9. Attach the upper bracket (B) to the bellow using two bolts (H), two lock washers (I), and
two flat washers (J). Be sure that the tall vertical leg of the upper bracket is opposite of
the air fitting port (Figure 1).
10. Repeat assembly for other side.
