Install guide (overview)

Follow the kit manual. Support the vehicle safely. Torque to spec. Lift/helper springs improve support and ride height but do not change GVWR or towing ratings.

Front (strut)

  • Remove front strut per workshop manual; use spring compressors at steps 4 & 5.
  • Swap OE spring/seat/bump stop/dust cover as per manual; re-fit strut and exterior parts.
  • Realign the vehicle afterwards (recommended with multi-link).

Rear

  • Remove lower shock absorber bolt, support axle; mind brake hoses/handbrake cables.
  • Install MAD spring with top & bottom spring seats; ensure the spring end is seated correctly.
  • Put vehicle back on wheels and refit the lower shock bolt; torque to spec.

After installation

  • Readjust headlight aim and, if present, camera/radar systems.
  • Road test; re-torque fasteners after ~100 miles.
