7.
Orient the shock so that the reservoir hose is pointing forward and going over the coil bucket.
8.
Fasten lower shock mounting location: Install a washer and bushing on the lower stem and raise the axle guiding the stem through
the lower shock mount. Install the remaining bushing, washer, and nuts in the same order as the upper shock mount.
9.
Tighten both the upper and lower stem nuts so that the jam nut is flush with the shock stem. [Torque jam nut to 50 ft-lbs]
10.
Install the reservoir mounting bracket to the coil bucket. Remove the forward outer nut on the coil bucket and install bracket
as shown and reinstall the nut loosely for now. There are (2) holes in the bracket but only one is used per side. Slide the hose clamp
through the slots in the bracket and around the reservoir. With most of the slack taken up on the hose clamps rotate the bracket and
reservoir inward against the bucket and frame and tighten both the nut and hose clamps in this position for maximum tire clearance.

11.
Some vehicles have a brake line bracket near the lower shock mount that can interfere with the shock body on full compression.
It may be necessary to slightly bend the bracket away from the shock.

12.
Check component clearances at full droop. Sway bar drop brackets and/or extended brake lines may be necessary with the
additional droop travel. ICON offers an extended brake line kit (PN: 53009).
13.
Reinstall wheels and slowly lower vehicle back to the ground. [Torque lugs to factory spec]
RETORQUE ALL NUTS, BOLTS AND LUGS AFTER 100 MILES AND PERIODICALLY THEREAFTER.
VERIFY ALL FASTENERS ARE PROPERLY TORQUED BEFORE DRIVING VEHICLE.
