Shocks on air suspension

(1/3) > >>

Jonny Boaterboy:
I have just read that you can not change the shocks on a air suspension without depressionising the system....... is that true? I thought you could just unbolt them and drop a new one in? It says that it will damage the air bag? It also says if you jack the chasie and then put a axel stand under the axel you can remove it....... can anyone tell me what will happen if i just unbolt it anyway?

Xtremeteam:
shouldnt be a problem to change the shocks as they dont hold the suspension up,

murph:
I did mine on my P38, just had it up on a set of ramps, had access to them so used them, unbolted the shocks and put new ones in did not affect the air suspension.

Range Rover Blues:
IIRC ther air supension checks the ride height every 6 hours when parked, this might have something to do with it.

bobtail4x4:
as long as you either leave the door open or lock the suspension, no problems.

mine had bilstiens fitted before I went to coils. :lol:
