q
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).
q
2. Fill the Shock Bodies with 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.
q
3. Insert the shaft assembly with the Cartridge against the Shock
Piston (123), (124). 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.
q
4. Now, with the Shock Shaft still all the way in, secure the
Cartridge by tightening it with pliers or a 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.
*NOTE: If leaking persists around the outside, tighten the
cartridge more. Be careful not to over tighten and strip the threads
on the Cartridge Body.
q
5. Repeat Steps 2-4 for the remaining three Shocks.

q
1. Snap a Shock Spring Cup (128) with the small side down, onto
each of the four Shock Shafts (118), (119) and over the Shock End
(120).
q
2. Slide an Orange front (short) Shock Spring (129) over each of
the two front Shocks so that the Spring rests on the Spring Cup. Slide
a Yellow rear (long) Shock Spring (131) over each of the two Rear
Shocks so that the Spring rests on the Spring Cup.
q
3. Thread a Shock Spring Adjustment Nut (130), small side down,
on to the top of all four Shock Bodies (125), (126). Thread the Spring
Adjustment Nuts on to the Shocks until the Adjusting Nut just touches
the Spring.
*NOTE: Final ride height adjustment should be made once the
car is fully built and all radio gear and electrics are installed. Refer to
the setup sheet provided in the back of this manual for final ride
height adjustment.

*Note: This step will only be used for maintenance
purposes, all of the Shock Adjustment Nuts in this kit
have been pre-assembled at the factory.
*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.
q
1. Place the O-ring (5) into the grove inside of the Shock Adjusting
Nut (130), Be sure to seat the O-ring completely into the groove as
shown in Figure 48B.
