SHOCK AND REAR TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT

a.
Use the included shock clips to adjust for spring pre-load. Pressing the entire car down, release,
and the car should return to ride height (indicated on set-up page). More pre-load clips will produce
higher ride height, and less clips will produce lower ride height. Amount of clips used for front and
rear shocks can be different, but clips should be the same for left and right.
b.
Use the included plastic toe-in plates to adjust for rear toe-in. The toe-in angles are indicated on
each plates.

TWO-SPEED ADJUSTMENT
a.
Your truck's two-speed shift point is preset at factory. It
should shift into 2nd gear within 16-19 feet(5-6 m) on a
full-throttle, standing-start acceleration.
b.
If the shift point needs to be re-adjusted, please shut down
the engine. First align the BLACK adjustment set screw
with the opening on the 2nd gear as shown on the diagram.
c.
Using a 2mm Allen wrench, turn the black adjustment set
screw clockwise to make the two-speed shift later; turn it
counter-clockwise to make the two-speed shift earlier. Only
use 1/4turn increments whenever you adjust your two-
speed. Do not screw out the black set screw too much or
it may cause set screw and spring to fall out.
d.
If it is screwed in or out too much, reset the black set screw
as following.
First, screw in the black set screw clockwise gently until
it is fully compressed. Be careful not over-tighten the black
set screw; otherwise the spring inside the shoes may be
damaged. And then turn the black set screw counter-
clockwise about 5 turns.
