Do not apply heat or flame to the shock absorbers during removal or component servicing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury.

A new part with the same part number, or an equivalent part, must be installed if installation is necessary. Do not use a new part of lesser quality or substitute design.

Excessive roughness or resistance may indicate bearing failure. Minor grease loss from bearing is considered normal.

COIL SPRING CAUTION: Only frame contact hoisting equipment may be used on vehicle. Damage will occur if vehicle is lifted by rear axle or rear suspension components.
