INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Congratulations - your new air helper springs are quality

products capable of improving the handling and comfort of your

vehicle. As with all products, proper installation is the key to

obtaining all of the benefits your kit is capable of delivering.

Please take a few minutes to read through the instructions to

identify the components and learn where and how they are used.

It is a good idea to start by comparing the parts in your kit with

the parts list below.

The heart of the air helper spring kit is, of course, the air

springs. Remember that the air helper springs must flex and

expand during operation, so be sure that there is enough

clearance to do so without rubbing against any other part of the

vehicle.

Be sure to take all applicable safety precautions during the

installation of the kit. The instructions listed in this brochure

and the illustrations all show the left or driver’s side of the

vehicle. To install the right side assembly simply follow the

same procedures while reversing any orientations.

Your kit includes separate inflation valves and air lines for

each air helper spring. This will allow you to level your vehicle

from side to side as well as from front to back. If you would rather

have a single valve inflation system, your dealer can supply the

required T-fittings.

IMPORTANT!

For your safety and to prevent possible damage to

your vehicle, do not exceed the maximum load recommended

by the vehicle manufacturer (GVWR). Although your Air

Helper Springs are rated at a maximum inflation pressure

of 100 psi, this pressure may allow you to carry too great a

load on some vehicles. It is best to have your vehicle

weighed once it is completely loaded and compare that

weight to the maximum allowed. Check your vehicle owner’s

manual or data plate on driver side door for maximum

loads listed for your vehicle.

When inflating your Air Helper Springs, add air pressure

in small quantities, checking pressure frequently during

inflation. The air spring requires much less air volume

than a tire and, therefore, inflates much quicker.

WARNING:

Do not inflate this assembly when it is unrestricted.

The assembly must be restricted by the suspension or

other adequate structure. Do not inflate beyond 100

P.S.I. Improper use or over inflation may cause property

damage or severe personal injury.
