AIR SPRING AND BRACKET ASSEMBLY
1. Set a roll plate (G) over the top and bottom of the air spring (H) (Fig. 1).
The radiused (rounded) edge of the roll plate (G) will be toward the air spring so that the air
spring is seated inside both roll plates.
2. Install the swivel elbow fitting (EE) into the top of the air spring finger tight. Tighten
the swivel fitting 1-1/2 turns.
3. Insert a 5/16”-18 x 3/4” carriage bolt (R) through the square hole in the lower bracket
cup (A). Make sure to insert the carriage bolt on the flanged side of the bracket. Set
the assembly onto the lower bracket main plate (B) making sure the lower bracket
cup (A) is on the flanged side of the bracket (Fig. 5).
4. Flip the assembly over and cap the 5/16” carriage bolt with a 5/16” flat washer (X)
and 5/16” nylon lock nut (CC) (Fig. 6). Tighten the nut only tight enough so that the
cup still swivels on the lower bracket main plate (Fig. 6).
