Front Lift Kit Installation
-Jack up front end of machine and remove the front hood, and both upper shock mounting bolts, then pull the shocks outward and out of the way.
-Pull the clear vent tube out of the frame cross section and tuck it out of the way for right now. Also, you will have to un-clip the wires that go under this frame cross member
-Place both front lift plates in place, plate # 1 goes on the side closest to the Cab of the machine, plate # 2 goes closest to the front end of the machine. Make sure both plates have the welded on spacers facing each other. Using the supplied 10mm bolts, put 2 bolts through the holes lining up with the stock mounting holes, use a supplied washer on both sides of the front lift kit, place an aluminum bushing between the frame mounting location as pictured

Rear Lift Kit Installation
-Jack up rear of machine and remove both rear upper shock mounting bolts. It is much easier if you work on both sides at the same time
-Remove the wire clip on the top part of the frame pictured here

-Pull shocks back and out of the way at the same time, by hand rotate the shock reservoir 180 degrees as pictured, this will keep the right shock reservoir away from the exhaust pipe

-Holding plate # 6 in place, start adding the bolts, BUT put the one bolt closest to the CVT Exhaust in upside down for a little more clearance of this exhaust, pictured below as well as the bolt out towards the outside of the machine

Switching it back to STOCK ride height while leaving the kit installed!
Front
-Jack up the front of the machine
-Remove the four 10mm upper shock mounting bolts (the bolts that go though the shock and the stock mounting hole) and remove the aluminum spacer from that location.
-Loosen the remaining 3 bolts on the front lift kit and bolt the top of the shock back in the stock location leaving the front brackets still in place.

-Save the 2 removed 10mm bolts, washers, lock nuts and aluminum spacers in a safe place that you will remember so you can switch back to lifted when you need it lifted
REAR
-This is honestly easiest if you jack up the rear of the machine and remove the rear shocks completely, to do this, just remove the upper and lower shock mounting bolts.
-Now take the stock upper shock mounting bolt (I hope you saved that somewhere that you remembered) and bolt the top of the rear shocks in the stock location on both sides

-Now slowly lower your jack until the lower shock mounting holes line up in the lower mounting location and bolt them in place.
-Save the 2 removed 12mm bolts and thick steel spacer in a safe place with your front hardware in that place that you will remember so you can switch back to lifted when you need it lifted
