Yes, the Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 air spring kit. 60754 (Part #BBCG60754) is designed to fit the 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 air spring kit. 60754 (Part #BBCG60754) fits 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee models. The 2004 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
The Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 air spring kit. 60754 (Part #BBCG60754) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Kit 60754 includes 2 air springs, 2 lower protectors, 1 heat shield kit, 1 air line assembly with 6 tie straps, 2 valve caps, 2 rubber washers, 2 star washers, 4 hex nuts (5/16"), 1 plastic tee, 6 line clips, and 1 inflation valve.
The manual states the kit is warranted for 'catalog-listed applications on cars, vans, light trucks and motorhomes under normal operating conditions.' Specific vehicle makes, models, and years are not listed in this manual. Contact Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 or consult the product catalog to confirm fitment for your vehicle.
Required tools are: open-end or box wrenches, pliers, ratchet with deep well sockets, drill with 5/16" bit, hoist or floor jacks, safety stands, safety glasses, air compressor or compressed air source, and a spray bottle with a 1/3 dish soap and 2/3 water solution for leak testing.
The manual does not mention disconnecting the battery. No electrical system work is required for this air spring installation.
The first step is to disconnect the sway bar links. Then raise the vehicle and disconnect both lower shock mountings. If using an axle contact hoist, place axle stands under the frame and lower the axle. If using a frame contact hoist, place axle stands under the axle and lower the frame. If using a jack on the axle, place axle stands under the frame and lower the axle, but do not proceed without restraining the axle from falling.
Pry or pull the jounce bumper out of the pocket in the lower spring seat. Drop the axle so the coil springs can be removed. Mark the spring and retainer for orientation. Pull the coil spring up out of the lower spring retainer and remove it. Discard the jounce bumper.
Deflate the air cylinder and replace the valve cap to keep it deflated. Insert the air cylinder into the coil spring with the stem towards the bottom of the coil. Then insert the pedestal into the bottom of the coil spring. Reinstall the coil into the vehicle, aligning the marks made during removal.
Slide a hose clip onto the air line. Thread the air line through the window in the protector and attach it to the air cylinder. Use pliers to open the hose clip and slide it over the end of the air line and the air cylinder barbed fitting. Push the cylinder down flat against the protector.
Slide the thermal sleeve onto the air line on the right side, placing it along the air line where it is nearest the exhaust. This protects the air line from heat damage.
Insert the small end of the protector into the lower spring seat pocket. Make sure the side window on the protector faces the rear of the vehicle.
The kit requires installation of an exhaust heat shield attached to the exhaust pipe. The flanges must be bent for component clearance. Bend the tabs to provide 1/2" dead air space between the exhaust pipes and heat shield and maximum clearance with the spring.
Route air lines along the axle, securing them with tie wraps. Find a suitable location for the plastic tee, such as along the back side of the axle near the center. Determine and cut adequate lengths of air line to route to both air springs from the tee. Connect the two air lines from the cylinders to opposite legs of the tee. Attach the remaining length of air line to the last leg of the tee. Leave sufficient air line slack to prevent any strain on fittings during axle movements.
Yes. You must drill a 5/16" hole for the inflation valve. Suitable locations include under the bumper or on the bumper next to the hitch receiver. The rubber washer is for outside weather seal.
Drill a 5/16" hole at your chosen location (such as under the bumper or on the bumper next to the hitch receiver). Mount the inflation valve as illustrated in Figure 13, with the rubber washer on the outside for weather seal. Slide a hose clip onto the free end of the remaining air line, push the line onto the inflation valve, and secure it with a hose clip.
Route the free end of the remaining air line to the inflation valve location, securing it with tie wraps. Raise the axle back to stock position. Reattach the shocks to the lower shock mountings. Reconnect the sway bar links.
Inflate the air springs to 10 psi. Spray all connections and the inflation valves with a solution of 1/3 dish soap and 2/3 water. Look for bubbles in the soapy water to spot leaks easily. If you find leaks, repair or replace the affected components before adjusting pressure.
Minimum air pressure is 5 psi and maximum is 35 psi. Start with the vehicle level or slightly above. Adjust pressure for optimal comfort and performance. A 2 to 4 psi loss after initial installation is normal. If pressure loss exceeds 5 psi after 24 hours, retest for leaks.
Compressed air can cause injury and damage to the vehicle and components if not handled properly. Do not try to inflate the air springs until they have been properly secured to the vehicle.
Exceeding the maximum recommended air pressure of 35 psi will result in the air spring 'bulging out' between the coils of the spring, which may cause the air spring to be pinched or may rub a hole into the cylinder.
The minimum air pressure is 5 psi and must be maintained at all times. The minimum air pressure keeps the air spring in shape, ensuring that it will move throughout its travel without rubbing or wearing on itself. Never allow pressure to drop below 5 psi.
Check the air pressure in the air springs weekly. Always maintain at least the recommended minimum air pressure of 5 psi to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Never inflate beyond the recommended maximum air pressure of 35 psi.
Use a soapy water solution to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core before deflating and removing the air spring. The manual provides a troubleshooting guide: leak test all air line connections, inspect the air line for holes and cracks, leak test the inflation valve, and inspect air lines to ensure they are not pinched or kinked. If these checks do not identify the problem, the issue is likely a failed air spring, and you should call Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 for assistance or a replacement.
No. Adding air springs will not change the weight ratings (GAWR, GCWR and/or GVWR) of a vehicle. Exceeding the GVWR is dangerous and voids the Air Lift warranty.
No. Air pressure can be adjusted with any type of compressor as long as it can produce sufficient pressure to service the springs. Even a bicycle tire pump can be used, but it requires significant effort.
If the air springs are properly installed and maintained, they can last indefinitely.
No. The vehicle can be lifted on a hoist for short-term service work such as tire rotation or oil changes. However, if the vehicle will be on the hoist for a prolonged period of time, support the axle with jack stands to take the tension off of the air springs.
Tuning comes down to three things: level vehicle, ride comfort, and stability. Start with the vehicle level or slightly above. If headlights are shining into trees or the vehicle is leaning to one side, raise the air pressure to level it. If the ride is rough and harsh, try different pressures to find the best comfort. For stability issues such as roll control, bounce, dive during braking, or sponginess, usually increase pressure. Always add air in small quantities, checking pressure frequently. It may be necessary to maintain different pressures on each side of the vehicle depending on load distribution.
The kit is designed for catalog-listed applications on cars, vans, light trucks, and motorhomes. Contact Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle make, model, and year.
You need wrenches, pliers, ratchet with deep well sockets, a drill with 5/16" bit, hoist or floor jacks, safety stands, safety glasses, an air compressor or compressed air source, and a spray bottle with soapy water for leak testing.
Yes, you must drill a 5/16" hole for the inflation valve, typically under the bumper or on the bumper next to the hitch receiver.
Yes. You must disconnect the sway bar links and both lower shock mountings before removing the factory coil springs. These are reconnected after installation.
Minimum 5 psi, maximum 35 psi. Start at vehicle level and adjust for comfort and stability. A 2 to 4 psi loss after 24 hours is normal.
The air spring will bulge out between the coils, which may cause it to be pinched or rubbed, damaging the cylinder.
Check weekly. Always maintain at least 5 psi minimum to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Never go below 5 psi.
First, inflate to 10 psi and spray all connections and inflation valves with a 1/3 dish soap and 2/3 water solution to check for leaks. A 2 to 4 psi loss after initial installation is normal. If loss exceeds 5 psi after 24 hours, systematically check: (1) leak test all air line connections and repair or replace as needed; (2) inspect the air line for holes and cracks and replace if found; (3) leak test the inflation valve for leaks at the air line connection or dirt/debris in the valve core; (4) inspect air lines to ensure they are not pinched (tie straps may be too tight); (5) check for kinks or folds in the air line and reroute as needed. If these steps do not resolve the issue, the problem is likely a failed air spring, and you should call Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 for assistance or a replacement.
Reroute the air line to remove the kink or fold. Ensure sufficient slack is left in the air line to prevent strain on fittings during axle movements.
The tie straps may be too tight, pinching the air line. Loosen or replace the tie straps. Alternatively, the air line may be routed incorrectly. Inspect the routing and reroute as needed to prevent pinching.
