 1. REMOVE COIL SPRINGS

stands.
 FRONT INSTALLATION – Position behind
front lower suspension arm brackets.
 REAR INSTALLATION – Position in front of
rear lower suspension arm brackets
 Remove the coil springs per the factory service
manual instructions for your vehicle. HINT: A coil
spring compressor is useful for removal.
 Depending on the application, it may be neces-
sary to completely or partially remove any of the following components before spring can be free from upper mount. H INT: Refer to factory ser-
vice manual for procedures not covered in these instructions.
 Shock Absorber

 2. PREPARE LOWER SPRING MOUNT
 Locate the dimple in the center of the lower spring
mount on the axle housing.
 Using the dimple as a guide, drill a 27/64” hole
through the center of the lower spring mount.
 Tap the hole with a 1/2” NC x 13 TPI tap.
 3. DETERMINE BUMPSTOP LENGTH
JKS Adjustable BumpStops can be installed in six (6)
possible congurations (0.75”, 1.25”, 2.00”, 2.75”, 3.25”, or
4.00”), depending on the individual spacer(s) used.
 Determine the ideal BumpStop length for your ap-
plication by considering factors such as:
 Clearance between vehicle tires and body panels
during full suspension compression
 Clearance between axle housing and chassis or
drivetrain during full suspension compression
 Length of existing bump stop extension, if installed
 Choose the spacer(s) that provides maximum,
unobstructed suspension compression for your application from the list below.
