INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
WARNING
• Always use a chassis lift for the
installation of shocks, and make certain
that the raised vehicle is securely
attached to the lift to prevent the
vehicle from slipping, falling, or moving
during the installation process.
• DO NOT install any FOX product
without the necessary special tools,
expertise and chassis lift, or you will
subject yourself to the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH. If you elect to
not use a chassis lift (which election
may result in SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH), ensure that the vehicle is
on level ground, that all tires on the
ground during installation are blocked
to prevent vehicle movement, that at
least two tires are on the ground at all
times, and that adequately secured jack
stands are used to support the vehicle.
NEVER get under the vehicle until you
have checked to ensure that the vehicle
will be stable during installation.

designed to fit your vehicle’s shock
mounts with no modifications with the
