GM 1 Ton C3500 AirBar Installation
1. Raise and support truck at a comfortable working height. Place jackstands under the frame ahead
of the front leafspring hangar. Support the axle housing with another set of jackstands. Since you will
be removing both leafsprings you will need to support the pinion yoke of the axle housing to prevent it
from dropping when the leafsprings are removed.
2. Remove leafspring assemblies.
3. If your truck does not have a Belltech C notch [or equivilent] already installed, you will need to do
that now. Refer to Belltech’s instructions for proper installation procedure.
3. Install the axle bracket crossmember assembly.
Make sure the legs of the bracket are indexed
properly into the underside of the oem leaf pad.
4. Place the upper 4 link bar axle bracket onto the
oem leafspring axle pad with the open side of the
rode end bracket facing forward. Insert the [8] 5/8 x
7” grade 8 bolts and tighten evenly using the
supplied grade 8 nyloc nuts
.
