Air helper spring maintenance
An air helper spring adds support to an open coil suspension, so it carries load that the coil would otherwise handle alone. Because it holds air, its fittings, valve and bladder need periodic attention. A slow loss of pressure often shows up as a sag in the rear height after the vehicle sits overnight, and it is worth checking the fittings for leaks when that happens.
Polyurethane components handle heat and weather well, but they still benefit from a look during routine service. Check the mounting hardware and the spring’s contact points with the body and frame after the first few drives. Adjust air pressure to suit the load you carry, and recheck the height whenever the load changes.
- Check air fittings for leaks after installation
- Inspect mounting hardware at routine service
- Adjust air pressure to match the load carried
- Recheck rear height after load changes
