If installing 5100 Series Bilstein shock absorbers, proceed with step D. If installing HD Series
Bilstein shock absorbers (yellow in color), skip to step E.
D. 5100 Series only: Install the circlip in the desired ride height location**. Refer to Figure 2.
Use appropriate tools to move the circlip. Ensure that the circlip is fully seated in the groove
after moving it. You should be able to rotate it manually in the groove. (HD series are not ride
height adjustable)

** Ride heights indicated are typical. Actual ride height is influenced by which factory suspension
the vehicle is equipped with and its condition; optional equipment and accessories on your vehicle,
and other vehicle modifications such as replacement coil springs, wheel and tire combinations, etc.
Modifying/lifting the suspension to your vehicle may raise its center of gravity and may make it
more susceptible to loss of control and/or rollover, which may result in death or serious injury. We
strongly recommend that you offset the loss of rollover resistance as much as possible by
increasing tire track width, and that you equip the vehicle with a functional roll bar and cage
system. Wear seat belts and shoulder harnesses at all times, and avoid situations where a side
rollover may occur.
