Install spring seat in same orientation as removed from original shock.
Generally, we recommend installing our replacement spring seats in the same orientation as removed from the original shock. However, spring seats are application specific. Please refer to your installation guide for detailed instructions.
If you do not have a copy of your installation instructions, search your part number in our online catalog and scroll to the bottom of product page for downloads.
Below are some examples of spring seat orientation diagrams provided in our installation manuals. Note: when spring seats are mounted via circlip or "snap-ring" the snap-ring must be captured in the groove in the underside of the spring seat, not inverted resting on top of it. The photos shown below are in refernce to the 4600, 5100, and 6112 product series. Please make sure you use the instuctions provided with your specific product part number for detailed mounting proceedures.
