INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR 1996-2001 VIPER SHOCKS
Catalog #33505
§
Please read these instructions entirely before beginning
. Proper installation is a must to realize the
maximum performance improvements.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
§
Upon initial inspection, some new shocks may have a small amount of oil in the area of the seal. This is a
normal occurrence following manufacture and does not indicate a problem with your shocks.
§
Any time you are working under a vehicle, be sure to use the proper jack stands and tire chocks to prevent
any shifting or slipping of the car. Never use a jack only to support the vehicle while changing shocks.
§
Inspect shock brackets or mounting points before installation to make sure they are not broken or bent.
§
Do not attempt to disassemble these shocks
. Return damaged shocks to Edelbrock for any necessary
service or repairs.
INSTALLATION
Step 1 Support Viper by frame with jack stands or
on a lift.
Step 2 Remove all four wheels.
Step 3
Removal of front shocks:
Fig. 2
An aluminum block should be placed between arm and
hammer to minimize marking control arm, do not hammer
directly on the arm. It should only require a couple of
sharp taps with a hammer in order to pop from seat. Do
both left and right sides, and remove nuts.
3(a) Loosen upper and lower shock nuts, but do not
remove the bolts at this time. (see Fig. 1).
3(b) If the lower shock nut is to rear, the lower sway
bar end link must be removed in order for the
bolt to have enough clearance for removal.
(see Fig. 1).
