MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

By following these steps, vehicle owners will obtain the longest life and best results from 

their air springs.

1.  Check the air pressure weekly.

2.  Always maintain at least the recommended minimum air pressure to prevent the air 

spring from being pinched. Never inflate beyond the maximum air pressure.

4.  If you develop an air leak in the system, use a soapy water solution of 1/5 liquid dish 

soap and 4/5 water to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core before 
deflating and removing the air spring.

5.  Always add air to springs in small quantities, checking the pressure frequently.  Sleeves 

require less air volume than a tire and inflate quickly.

OPERATING TIPS

1.  Inflate your air springs to 35 PSI before adding the payload. This will allow the air cylinder 

to properly mesh with the coil spring. After the vehicle is loaded, adjust your air pressure 

down to level the vehicle and for ride comfort.

2.  When  carrying  a  payload  it  will  be  helpful  to  increase  the  tire  inflation  pressure  in 

proportion to any overload condition. We recommend a 2 PSI increase above normal 

for each 100 lbs additional load on the axle.

DO NOT ExCEED THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS’ MAxIMUM GROSS VECHICLE 
WEIGHT RATING.
