5. Install the air fitting into the bellows. The threads are precoated with sealant. Tighten
finger tight plus 1 1/2 turns, being careful to tighten only on the metal hex nut. Do not
over tighten.
INSTALLING THE AIR LINES
1. Choose a convenient location for mounting the inflation valves. Popular locations for
the inflation valve are:
a. The wheel well flanges.
b. License plate recess in bumper.
c. Under the gas cap access door.
d. Through license plate itself.
What ever the chosen location is, make sure there is enough clearance around the inflation
valves for an air chuck.
2. Drill a 5/16 “ hole to install the inflation valves.
3. Cut the air line assembly (AA) in two equal lengths (Figure 11).
WHEN CUTTING OR TRIMMING THE AIR LINE, USE A HOSE CUTTER, A RAZOR BLADE
OR A SHARP KNIFE. A CLEAN, SQUARE CUT WILL ENSURE AGAINST LEAKS. DO
NOT USE WIRE CUTTERS OR SCISSORS TO CUT THE AIR LINE. THESE TOOLS MAY
FLATTEN OR CRIMP THE AIR LINE, CAUSING IT TO LEAK AROUND THE O-RING SEAL
INSIDE THE ELBOW FITTING.
4. Place a 5/16 “ nut (GG) and a star washer (FF) on the air valve. Leave enough of the
inflation valve in front of the nut to extend through the hole and have room for the rubber
