AIR LINE INSTALLATION
FIGURE “C”
STEP 5— ROUTE THE AIR LINE
Cut the remaining air line tubing into two equal lengths
(cut the tubing as squarely as possible). Select a loca-
tion for the inflation valves in a protected area, such as
the bumper or trunk floor (Note: The inflation valve will
be installed in step 6).
Insert the air line tubing into the push-to-connect
fitting on the air spring as far as possible. Route the
tubing from the air spring to the inflation valve, mak-
ing sure to avoid direct heat from the engine, exhaust
pipe and away from sharp edges. Secure with Nylon
ties provided in your Coil-Rite kit.
STEP 6— INSTALL THE AIR LINE AND
INFLATION VALVE
Select a location on the vehicle for the air inflation valves.
The location can be located on the bumper or the body
of the vehicle, as long as it is in a protected location so
the valve will not be damaged, but maintain accessibility
for the air chuck see Figure “C”. Drill a 5/16" hole and
install the air inflation valve using two 5/16" flat washers
per valve as supports see Figure “D”.
Follow steps 1-6 for the other air spring.
STEP 7— INFLATE AND TEST
Inflate the air springs to recommended operating pres-
sure (see page 1 for operating pressures). With a soap
and water solution, check for air leaks around the fittings
and valve core. We recommend inflating and deflating in
5 p.s.i. increments to find the ideal riding condition for
your vehicle.
STEP 8— COMPLETION
This now completes the installation. Install the wheels
and torque the lug nuts to the manufacturers specifica-
tions. Raise the vehicle and remove the jack stands and
lower the vehicle back onto the ground.
NOTE: Check air pressure on a monthly basis.
