What are you trying to figure out ?

My Fox SS uses misalignment spacers for the heim joints on each end.

You need remove the lower track bar bolt and replace it with the provided bolt. Then either spread or cut off the tie rod mount bracket and mount the provided billet mount. I have attached some pics that will hopefully help. I know the instructions aren't really to good so let me know if you need anymore info or help.

I have not installed mine yet. Waiting to do it next month with my lift and Fox shocks. Was curious what you have noticed handling wise over the stock ss. Also, which direction do you turn the adjustment knob to firm up the dampening? Thanks.

It's way better over my stock one since I smashed Turning it right tightens it up. I am very happy with my SS it's more predictable and smoother while I'm driving. My stock one would over react with deviations in the road.

Good to hear. What setting of the "24 clicks of adjustment" did you use to find your sweet spot?

I've been adjusting it between 8-14 clicks and so far I find that 10 is really good for me.
