VIII. Checklist
Protect your warranty on this product and prevent unnecessary wear by ensuring the following checks have been made:
Section I – Installation (To be completed by the installer):
1. Clearance Test - Inflate the air springs to 60 PSI (4BAR) and ensure there is at least 1/2 " (13mm)
clearance around each sleeve from anything that might rub against them. Be sure to check the tire,
brake drum, frame, shock absorbers and brake cables.
2. Leak Test Before Road Test – Inflate the air springs to 60 PSI (4BAR), check all connections for leaks
with a soapy water solution. See page 4 of the manual for tips on how to spot leaks. All leaks must be
eliminated before the vehicle is road tested.
3. Heat Test – Be sure there is sufficient clearance from heat sources - at least 6" (150mm) for air springs
and air lines. If a heat shield was included in the kit - install it. If there is no heat shield, but one is
required, call 1-800-0892.
4. Fastener Test – Recheck all bolts for proper torque.
Torque Guide:
1/2" Carriage Bolts
3/8" Frame Bolts
U-bolt Lock Nuts
5. Road Test – The vehicle should be road tested after the preceding tests. Inflate the springs to 25 PSI
(1.7BAR) (50 PSI [3.5BAR] if vehicle is loaded). Drive the vehicle 10 miles (16km) and recheck for
clearance, loose fasteners and/or air leaks.
6. Operating Instructions – If professionally installed, the installer should review the operating instructions
on page 6 with the owner. Be sure to provide the owner with all of the paperwork that came with the kit.
Section II - Post Installation Checklist (To be completed by the owner):
1. Overnight Leakdown Test – Recheck air pressure after vehicle has been used for 24 hours. If pressure
has dropped more than 5 PSI (.4BAR) then, you have a leak that must be fixed. Either fix the leak
yourself (see page 4) or return to the installer for service.
2. Air Pressure Requirements – I understand that the air pressure requirements of my air spring system are
as follows:
Regardless of load, the air pressure should always be adjusted so that the Ride Height is maintained at all
times.
3. Thirty Day or 500 Mile (800km) Test. I understand that I must recheck the air spring system after 30 days
or 500 miles (800km), whichever comes first. If any part shows signs of rubbing or abrasion, the source
should be identified and moved, if possible. If it is not possible to relocate the cause of the abrasion, the
air spring may need to be remounted. If professionally installed, the installer should be consulted.
Check all fasteners for tightness.
