Which Way Do Shocks of Lippert Shock Kit Face on Trailer Axles
Published 08/15/2016
Question:
Hello. I bought this kit for my triple axle and have 3 kits to install. I need to know if all 3 shocks mount the same direction or does the aft axle kit mount opposite from the front 2? Thanks

When installing the shocks of the spring kit part # LC281281 you want to mount the shocks so that they are facing away (and up) from the equalizer of the axle to get the best performance.
