I am considering this product for installation only. I will fix it as needed once I've used it for its intended purpose to ensure proper ride height when towing my 32ft TT. First let me say that I was a bit skeptical about the 2 hour set up time. I was right, it was 7 o'clock. Also, there was a previous reviewer who said there was no need to brace the axles and the clearance could be achieved by jacking up the hitch. It seems correct, but I don't know if you want all that weight on your hitch, but it's up to you. I unpacked and inventoried everything because I didn't want any surprises. Everything was there. Installed on the left (driver) without any problems. Right (passenger) is a whole different story. The U-clip that fits closest to the wheel was too wide to fit between the brake line bracket and the leaf spring U-bolt bracket. I watched a few youtube videos and even uninstalled and reinstalled everything to make sure I didn't miss anything. Eventually I gave up and called Airlift. I was told that "it should fit" and that the thinner U clamp was out of stock and I had to grind the leads to fit! I went back under my truck and set it up as best I could. Now there is half an inch of clearance between the axle and the clamp and everything is still good and tight. On May 17th I will be swapping my tires and retesting the torque for my personal SA.
