DESCRIPTION

Air springs are widely utilized. Commonly as actuators in amusement park rides, packaging equipment, clutch systems, conveyor belts and scissor lifts, they also act as vibration insulators in centrifuges, commercial laundry machines, measuring and weighing machinery, and textile looms. While the air spring has impacted many industries like oil, logging, construction and manufacturing, it is most prominent in the automobile industry where the air spring is used in suspensions for vehicle brands like Lincoln, Cadillac, Hummer, and Jeep.

Most air springs are found on the rear axle of vehicles. The bottoms of the air springs sit on support plates that are welded to the axle. The tops of the air springs are attached to a body member. This allows the air springs to support the vehicle weight. If an air spring, you may experience excessive bouncing while driving or even bottoming out.

This relieves all of the air pressure from the suspension system which allows you to service the air spring more safely.

• Warning: Before performing maintenance on any air suspension components, disable the system by turning off the air suspension switch. This prevents the suspension control module from making changes to the vehicle ride height when the vehicle is in the air. This prevents vehicle damage or personal injury.

• Warning: Do not remove an air spring under any circumstances when the air spring is pressurized. Do not remove any components supporting an air spring without either venting the air pressure or supporting the air spring. Disconnecting a pressurized air line that is connected to the air compressor can cause personal injury or damage to components.
