⚠️ Important Fitment & Application Notes

- Ensure proper reservoir placement and hose routing to avoid contact with moving or heated components
- Springs are not included unless otherwise noted — select appropriate spring rate for your vehicle’s weight and setup
- Confirm hardware compatibility (bushings, bearings, spacers) for correct tab width (e.g., 1.50")
- After installation, a professional alignment is recommended to ensure suspension geometry and handling integrity
🔧 Installation & Buying Tips
- Measure eye-to-eye mounting distance and verify extended/compressed lengths before ordering
- Select the correct spring rate for your vehicle’s weight, accessories, and terrain type
- Plan reservoir hose routing carefully to avoid abrasion, heat, or pinching
- Inspect and replace worn bushings or spacers during installation
