FYI their instructions are terrible, not sure what year you have but if it's 2011/2012 your brake lines are too short if left attached to the clip under the spring seat and long enough to get in the spring if you take it out of the clip.  AEV told me to loosely zip tie the lines to the shock to avoid that problem, but I think a better option would be steel braided lines routed properly. :-)
