IMPORTANT NOTES:  
Any time you are working under a vehicle, be sure to use the proper jackstands 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.  
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.
