.
When the air spring is completely within the coil, remove the cap and allow the air spring
to assume its “as molded” shape. Push the cylinder down to the bottom of the spring so
that the stem at the top can be accessed for attaching the hose.
7. Route the hose down from the outside of the frame, through the hole in the top spring
seat (Fig. 4). Insert hose through the protector and attach to the cylinder per the next
section.
INSTALLING THE AIR LINE
A tee air line installation is recommended unless the weight in the vehicle varies from one
side to the other and unequal pressures are needed to level the load or compensate for axle
torque transfer in racing applications. Dual air lines are used in this case.
TEE AIR LINE ROUTING
TO PREVENT THE AIR LINE FROM MELTING, MAINTAIN AT LEAST 8 ” (203.2MM) FROM
THE EXHAUST SYSTEM TO THE AIR LINE.
1. Locate the desired tee location on the frame rail or cross member. Determine and cut
adequate length of air line to reach from tee to the left and right side air springs.
LEAVE SUFFICIENT AIR LINE SLACK TO PREVENT ANY STRAIN ON THE FITTING
DURING AXLE MOTIONS.
2. Slide an air line clamp onto the air line.
3. Push the air line over one side of the tee until all the barbs are covered. With a pair of
pliers, slide the air line clamp forward until it fully covers the barbed section. Repeat
entire procedure for other leg of the tee (Fig. 5).
4. Route the air line along the cross member and either the lower control arm or the upper
spring seat to the air spring.
5. Insert the air line through the spring seat and spacers.
