suspension is fully extended. (DO NOT use wood or

WARNING
Do not inflate this assembly when it is
unrestricted. The assembly must be restricted by
a coil spring. Do not inflate beyond recommended
operating pressures for your specific vehicle.
Improper use or over inflation may cause property
damage or severe personal injury.
FOR BEST RIDE use only enough air
pressure in the air helper springs to level the
vehicle when viewed from the side (front to
rear). This amount will vary depending on the
load, location of load, condition of existing
suspension and personal preference.
