SET-UP
INCORRECT
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
The self-locking nut is overtightened, causing
distortion of the piston. This will negatively
affect the free movement of the piston in the
shock body.
DETAIL
CORRECT
TIGHTEN GENTLY
The self-locking nut is gently tightened. The
piston remains undistorted and fits inside the
shock body perfectly, ensuring smooth movement
of the piston.
DETAIL
Install the piston with Professional Multi
Tool (HUDY #183011)
