Installation Instructions
*** Must Use RideTech Front Shock Kit ***
1. Apply thread sealant to the air fitting
and screw it into the air spring.
Assemble the upper cup bracket to the
air spring, using 3/8” Nylok nuts and flat
washers. Thread the 8” stud into nut
welded to the bottom of the cup.
2. Place the assembly up into the
upper coil spring pocket; the stud will
go though the factory shock hole.
Fasten with a 7/16” Nylok nut and flat
washer.
Note: The airline must also be routed
at this time.
3. Fasten the bottom of the air spring
to the lower StrongArm using a 3/8” x
¾” bolt, lock washer and flat washer.

4. Make sure the air spring does not
rub on anything through full
suspension travel. This will damage
the air spring and is not a
warrantable situation. Although it is
acceptable to allow it to touch the lower
control arm when fully deflated.
5. The final step is to have the vehicle
realigned. You will want to have this
done at ride height. Ride height is
determined by air spring height. This
spring should be approximately 4 ¾”
tall, which should occur around 85-100
psi. This will vary to driver preference
and vehicle weight.
