Important: Clean the components and the surrounding area to prevent dirt from entering the air system before disconnecting the air hose from the air compressor.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 15 N·m (11 lb ft).
Important: Before driving the vehicle, turn the ignition on and wait approximately 45 seconds. This will ensure that the air adjustable shock absorbers are filled with residual pressure.
