Hi,
Does anyone have experience installing these?
I have a 96 Sport with the standard UpCountry suspension which was fine until it sagged (1") and the shocks faded. I have fitted Rancho RSX's all round, a great ride improvement especially on twisty tarmac.
I do not want to lift the suspension any higher than standard as it works OK on the camping trips. The problem is when loaded and/or towing I would like to level the ride.
I purchased an Airlift kit after reading about them on GoJeeps web site as it seems the best solution to restore and maintain the ride height.
My question is, when I go to install the kit should I install it at the "sagged" spring to body gap (height) and expect the airbags to lift the suspension back to normal or should I re-set the height (gap) back to standard before commencing installation?
I assume the kit was designed with the standard specifications in mind. Gojeeps guide is great but is installed on a modified spring pack with an add-a-leaf so he already has a starting point.
Am I making sense or have I just asked a dumb question?
Put it this way, is the aim to have the bags at their neutral extention at standard ride height?
