Front

The front shock absorber and suspension of the vehicle is supported by coil springs positioned around the shock absorbers. The springs are contained between an upper seat, located just below the top shock absorber mounting bracket and a lower spring seat located on the shock absorber.

The top of each shock absorber assembly is bolted to the cast aluminum upper control arm bracket which is then bolted to the shock tower of the vehicle using 4 mounting bolts.

The bottom of the shock absorber assembly attaches to the lower control arm of the vehicle using a thru-bolt and prevailing torque nut. Caster and camber is a fixed setting (net build) on all vehicles and is not required nor can be adjusted.
