Review on Enhance Your Vehicle's Performance with AIR LIFT 81560 1000 Series Rear Air Spring Kit by Scott Rao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

1994 Bounder Motorhome

I bought these to replace the lazy air springs on my motorhome. I was concerned about the installation as I had read all the horror stories about how difficult the installation was. It turned out that I had no problems and did all the work on my own in 2.5 hours. Simply squeeze all of the air out of the bags, replace the lid, then press each end and fold the airbag in half like a hot dog bun. Use zip ties or something similar to keep them in that shape. Make sure you clean up the hole you slide the airbag through as I had sharp burrs that could tear or detach the airbag. Wash the bags and simply slide and screw while cutting the strings or ropes. I am very happy with my purchase and my ride has improved a lot. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because one of the air lines going to the air springs was leaking and the spring deflated after about an hour. I simply removed the long hoses, removed the schrader valves from the hoses and installed them directly into the airbag. Filing the springs under the camper and airing them out isn't a big deal, plus they don't leak anymore and I haven't had to fiddle with them since.
