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.

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" fitting.

MPORTANT

!

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's 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 psi
Improper use or over inflation may cause property damage
or severe personal injury.
