INSTALLING THE AIR SPRING ASSEMBLIES
1. With the axle dropped low enough to put the assemblies into position, set the left-
and right-hand assemblies on the lower brackets (previously installed), making sure
that the fittings are on the outside of the frame as shown. Lift and attach the air
spring upper bracket to the frame bracket using two 3/8” carriage bolts (O), two flat
washers (L) and two nylon lock nuts (R) (figs. 25, 26). Torque hardware to 20 lb.-ft.
(27Nm). Repeat for the opposite side.
2. Set a roll plate in between the bellows and the lower bracket. Align the holes in the
lower bracket and roll plate to the threaded inserts in the air spring (fig. 27).
