PARTS LIST
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Congratulations— your new Air Helper Springs are quality
products capable of improving the handling and comfort
of your vehicle. As with all products, proper installation is
the key to obtaining all of the benefits your kit is capable
of delivering. Please take a few minutes to read through
the instructions to identify the components and learn
where and how they are used. It is a good idea to start by
comparing the parts in your kit with the parts list below.
The heart of the air spring kit is, of course, the air
helper springs. Remember that the air helper springs must
flex and expand during operation, so be sure that there
is enough clearance to do so without rubbing against
any other part of the vehicle.
Be sure to take all applicable safety precautions
during the installation of the kit. The instructions listed
in this brochure and the illustrations all show the left,
or driver’s side of the vehicle. To install the right side
assembly simply follow the same procedures.
This kit includes inflation valves and air lines for
each air spring. This will allow you to compensate for
unbalanced loads. If you would rather have a single infla-
tion valve system to provide equal pressure to both air
springs, your dealer can supply the optional “T” fitting.
IMPORTANT!
For your safety and to prevent possible damage
to your vehicle, do not exceed the maximum load
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer (GVWR).
Although your Air Helper Springs are rated at a maximum
inflation pressure of 100 psi, this pressure may allow you
to carry too great a load on some vehicles. It is best to
have your vehicle weighed once it is completely loaded
and compare that weight to the maximum allowed. Check
your vehicle owner’s manual or data plate on driver side
door for maximum loads listed for your vehicle.
When inflating your Air Helper Springs, add air pres-
sure in small quantities, checking pressure frequently
during inflation. The air spring requires much less air
volume than a tire and, therefore, inflates much quicker.
