REMOVING THE JOUNCE BUMPER AND INSTALLING THE UPPER BRACKET

  • STEP 1
    Raise the vehicle and support it using safety stands so that the axle can be safely dropped away from the frame, and the air spring assemblies can be put into position between the leaf spring and frame. Remove the rear wheels.

  • STEP 2
    Unbolt and remove the jounce bumper. Keep the jounce bumper just removed.

  • STEP 3
    Set the U-bolts (6 of the Air spring bag kit list) on the frame. U-bolts are located on the inside of the frame, between all wiring harnesses and the frame.
