B) GAUGE PANEL TO AIR SPRINGS
Cut two lengths of air line tubing that will reach from the gauge panel to each of the air helper springs. It may be necessary to drill a hole in the fire wall to allow the air line tubing to reach the rear of the vehicle. Ensure that the air line tubing is protected from sharp edges. Before installing
the tubing to the gauge panel, soak one end of the tubing in hot water for a few minutes to soften the tubing. Slide the tubing onto the barbed fitting on the back of the gauge panel as far as possible. Do not use pliers to work the air line onto the barbed fitting, as the tubing may be damaged.
Install the other end of the air line tubing into the
