Suspension Kit
Rear Shock Piston
to assist with installation of the Wide Maxx® Suspension Kit.
Suspension Tuning
1. Remove the two front and two rear shocks from the truck.
2. Remove the shock springs from all four shocks. Install the rear
1.2mm
shock springs on the front shocks. The front springs are not
used with the Wide Maxx suspension.
3. Install the new shock springs (included) on the rear shocks.
4. For optimal suspension performance, replace the 30wt silicone shock oil in
the rear shocks with 50wt silicone shock oil (part #5034, sold separately). Be
sure to fill the shocks with 100% pure silicone shock oil to help prolong the
life of the seals. When adding shock oil, be sure to allow any air bubbles to
escape. Note: The rear shocks use the 1.2mm shock piston.
5. Reinstall the front and rear shocks on the truck.
