Reinstalling FX3 shocks after rebuild
I just had my Fx3 shocks rebuilt, and they are on there way back.
I just quickly wanted to check and see if there was anything special i should do when i reinstall? What position should the shock gear be in? All the way clockwise, or counterclockwise?
Does anyone have a diagram from the service manual?
I don't want to mess anything up after spending $370!!
BTW: Got the Morrocca valving :D

Full soft so when you compress them you can.
But it really doesn't matter just throw them on and torque to spec, also you should have ordered the Polyurethane bushing to install while you're at it.

:iagree:
Doesn't matter you'll have to jack the arms to get the bolts to line up.......once the car is dropped they just fall into place naturally. You'll think you have a new car once those bad boys go back on...... :thumbs:
