How to Install Synergy Front & Rear Lower Shock Relocation Kit (07-18 Wrangler JK) on your Jeep Wrangler

Installation Time

1 hours

GENERAL NOTES:

• These instructions are also available on our website at www.synergymfg.com Check the website for any updated instructions and additional photos for reference.

• Simple hand tools are required for installation.

• Although it is possible to install these with vehicle sitting on ground, it will be much easier to install with wheels and tires off the vehicle and suspension drooped out.

1) Place a floor jack under the center of the front diff and jack the vehicle up.

a. Support vehicle using jack stands as to allow front suspension to droop out.

b. Remove wheels and tires, and stock shocks. Support front axle with jack while removing front shocks as to not overextend brake lines once front shocks are removed.

2) Once stock shocks have been removed, installation of the new 8015 Jeep JK lower shock extension can begin.

a. Determine L & R hand sides. Bracket should lean inwards towards the center of the vehicle and should line up with bottom hole in stock shock mount. See pictures below for proper orientation.

b. Slide stock shock bolt through the factory shock mount and the new 8015 shock extension bracket as shown. Start nut but do not tighten.

c. Start bottom 3/8” bolt. Use a washer under both the bolt head and top lock nut provided. Torque to 35 ft-lbs.

d. Torque stock shock bolt to 56 ft-lbs

3) Install shocks into the new raised shock mount and stock upper mount.

a. Jack the axle up enough to install the shocks.

b. Use the 2.5” long ½” bolt provided in the kit with washers under both the bolt head and top lock nut.

c. Torque lower bolt to 60-80 ft-lbs.

d. Tighten upper bolt until the bushings begin to bulge out.

e. Reinstall wheels, torque lug nuts to 85-125 ft-lbs.
