Important Kit Notes
- 1. Some vehicle came with factory front dual shocks. If you wish to replace the factory duals, you must order the additional two auxiliary shocks in the options.
- 2. The rear springs that come in this kit are designed to replace stock 56" eye to eye springs. Some vehicles produced during this time period were manufactured with 52" rear springs. You must measure your stock springs (center of eye to center of eye) before order to make sure you get the correct springs.
- 3. Both driveshaft will need to be lengthened, exhaust modification required and aftermarket extended brake lines will be required.
- 4. If your vehicle is equipped with a front anti-sway bar, order the anti-sway bar shackle link kit listed in the accessories.
