Length Adjustment

We advise to remove the shock absorber from
the vehicle before adjusting the length. Use
two 24 mm wrenches. Hold the upper nut with
one hand and at the same time loosen the lock
nut (lower nut). Turn the end eye/bracket to the
desired length.
Tightening torque 40 Nm.
WARNING!
Remember to lock the lock nut after adjusting the
length.
WARNING!
The adjustable end eye/bracket must not be threaded
out more than that the groove is fully visible beneath the
lock nut. This is maximum length. After adjusting, make
sure that the lock nut is tightened.
