TECH NOTES
1. THE SHOCKS SHIP AT ICON’S RECOMMENDED RIDE HEIGHT. DO NOT PRELOAD THE COIL BEYOND
.9” OF EXPOSED THREADS BETWEEN THE BOTTOM OF THE TOP CAP AND THE TOP OF THE COIL
NUT. INCREASING PRELOAD BEYOND THE FACTORY SETTING WILL CAUSE COIL TO BIND.
2. YOUR NEW COILOVER ASSEMBLIES COME CHARGED WITH THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF
NITROGEN. DO NOT RELEASE PRESSURE FROM THE CHARGE PORT, AS THIS CAN CAUSE THE SHOCK
TO MALFUNCTION.
