Airlift 1000 install?

[JJP71584]

How long did it take you guys to install this? Trying to figure how much time to allow for this...also any tips/tricks?

These don't take much time at all. Two hours at the most. I bill them for 3-4 hours though at my shop. The air lift instructions are very nice and detailed. I love their product

An hour or so. They are super quick, and the biggest pain is routing the air lines lol.

Couple of pointers if the weather is cold out;
-Place the bags on a heat(floor) register to warm them up before you start. They need to be soft and pliable to fold them according to the istructions, to get them between the coils.
-When attaching the lines over the top of the coils onto the bag barbs you can get at the area from over the tire more easily than from underneath. I didn't even remove the tires.
Good luck!

And don't route the air lines too close to the exhaust, they can melt

I don't remember who posted this idea for mounting the air puter inner thingy but I copied them and it works pretty good.

That's how I routed mine a while back. When I did them

I got this put in this weekend and went better than expected, not a hard install at all...also I mounted mine in the same way on the hitch

It took me about 45 minutes start to finish, I removed the springs and put the bags in from the top. As far as the valve stems go, I removed the license plate bolts and ran them through those holes. Nice and easy to get to but still looks clean.

Sweet! I've been looking at these myself... let us know how you like them

Do they make a kit that includes a compressor also so u don't have to have a pancake?

I did mine last weekend. Took about 2 hours start to finish but I was taking my time. I first tried to install them with out taking the wheels off but that was a waste of time. It went very quickly after that.
