Man.  I cant seem to get my suspension compressed enough to get the rear header on.  I have compresses it as much as my 208lb rear end will then used a tie down and still nope.  Please any suggestions.  Been at this on and off since sat night.

I know it's possible because I was able to install the full termi system on S4RS without any major issues.  Getting the rear header on is pregnant dog but it does fit.  Take a break, drink a beer [drink] and try again

Is there a chance that a PO had adjusted the ride height from the stock position? That may cause an issue.

I just sat on mine and it went.  Ride height adjustment like above sounds like something to check.

Should i max the height out?  Dealer told me to supprt motor and take out the bolt from the upper portion of the adjuster and rear shock.

Ok.  Finally got it.  Had to run the height adjustment all the way up.  Now got to figure out how to get it downsince the header is now on.
