Spring, Front Coil: Description
All pressurized air suspension components contain high pressure air (up to 220 psig). Use extreme caution when inspecting for leaks. Wear safety goggles and adequate protective clothing when inspecting or servicing the air suspension system. A sudden release of air under this amount of pressure can cause possible serious or fatal injury.
Before performing any service on the air suspension system, the system must be disabled to prevent the system from changing ride height. Before any given component is to be serviced it must be deflated. Servicing the air suspension system without the system disabled, or with pressure in any specific component, can cause possible serious or fatal injury.
For vehicles without air suspension, a coil over shock is used.
Before disconnecting a shock on an air suspension (SER) equipped vehicle, the spring and shock assembly must be deflated.
For air suspension (SER) equipped vehicles, an air suspension spring and shock assembly (2) replaces the coil over shock on the front of the vehicle. The air suspension spring and shock assembly incorporates the air spring, shock, mounting brackets, and an air fitting (1) for the air line. Service for the air suspension spring and shock assembly is as a complete assembly.
