Yes, the Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 Load Leveling air spring kit. 60740 (Part #BBCG60740) is designed to fit the 1999-2004 Honda Odyssey.
The Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 Load Leveling air spring kit. 60740 (Part #BBCG60740) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Kit 60740 includes two air springs (part 46160), one heat shield kit (part 34365), a 15-foot air line assembly (part 20315), six tie straps (part 10466), two valve caps (part 21230), two 5/16" flat washers (part 18405), two rubber washers (part 21234), two star washers (part 18411), four 5/16" hex nuts (part 21233), one plastic tee (part 21236), six line clips (part 10638), and two inflation valves (part 21455).
The manual does not specify which vehicle makes, models, years, or configurations this kit fits. Contact Air Lift Customer Service at 1-800-248-0892 or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your vehicle before purchasing.
Required tools include: open-end or box wrenches, pliers, drill with 5/16", 1/2", and 3/4" bits, sharp knife, aluminum shears, file or air grinder or Dremel tool, hoist or floor jacks, safety stands, safety glasses, air compressor or compressed air source, and a spray bottle with dish soap and water solution.
The manual states that removing the bottom shock bolt may aid in lowering the suspension when jacking up the rear of the vehicle, but does not explicitly require full shock removal. Follow the manual's instruction to jack up the rear, place safety stands under the frame so wheels hang, and remove the bottom shock bolt if needed to lower the suspension sufficiently to access the jounce bumper.
The jounce bumper must be removed to provide space for the air spring cylinder to be installed inside the coil spring. The air spring stem must protrude through a hole drilled in the lower control arm, and the jounce bumper blocks this installation.
Yes, drilling is required. You must drill a 3/4" hole in the lower control arm to provide valve stem clearance. The manual provides a template (on page 9) to be stuck to the underside of the lower control arm to mark the hole location. Additionally, a 5/16" hole must be drilled in the body sheet metal to mount the inflation valve.
Cut the jounce bumper off 1/8" under the steel cup where the rubber jounce bumper is attached. Be extremely careful when cutting. A screwdriver may aid in opening the jounce bumper while cutting it off. Once cut, remove the jounce bumper using a spring spreader or by cutting it in two with shears or bandcutters.
The manual specifies a 3/4" hole for valve stem clearance. However, it notes that as an option, you can drill a 1/2" hole and then grind it out to 3/4" using an air grinder or Dremel tool.
First, remove the cap from the valve stem and step on the cylinder to remove air. With the cylinder flat, replace the cap and fold it like a hot dog bun. Insert the cylinder into the spring with the stem pointing downward. A flat, blunt instrument may aid in positioning the cylinder inside the coil spring. Remove the cap and let the cylinder resume its molded shape. Push the cylinder down so the barbed stem protrudes through the hole drilled in the lower control arm.
Slide one line clip (part 10638) over one end of the hose. Insert the hose onto the barbed end of the cylinder. Using pliers, slide the line clip over the barbs to secure the connection.
Route the hose from the cylinder up to the cross member and tie it off with a tie strap (part 10466) to an existing hole forward of the lower control arm. Route the line across to the driver side above the cross member. Use the heat shield (part 34365) where the line goes over the exhaust. Route hoses from both passenger and driver sides to a location on the driver side where a plastic tee (part 21236) is installed. The remaining hose from the tee connects to the inflation valve location, typically under the bumper.
Yes, the manual states you can opt to use a single line per bag. If you choose this option, skip step 4 of Section III (installing the tee) and proceed to step 5 (determining the inflation valve location). This means you would have two separate inflation valves instead of one shared tee.
Bend the heat shield tabs out at a 90° angle, then bend again half the distance up at a 90° angle to form an "L" shape. Position the heat shield between the spring and exhaust pipe. Clamp it to the pipe using radiator clamps. There should be a dead airspace between the exhaust pipe and heat shield to prevent heat damage.
Drill a 5/16" hole in the body sheet metal at the desired inflation valve location, typically under the bumper. Mount the inflation valve using the hardware provided: insert the valve through the hole, place a flat washer (part 18405) on the inside, then a rubber washer (part 21234) for weather seal, a star washer (part 18411), and secure with a 5/16" hex nut (part 21233). Slide a hose clip (part 10638) onto the free end of the remaining air line, push the line onto the inflation valve, and secure with another hose clip.
Inflate the air springs to 10 p.s.i. initially to test for leaks. After confirming there are no leaks, adjust the air pressure for optimal comfort and performance. The minimum operating pressure is 5 p.s.i. and the maximum is 35 p.s.i.
Minimum air pressure is 5 p.s.i. and maximum air pressure is 35 p.s.i. Always maintain at least the minimum pressure to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Never inflate beyond the maximum pressure, as exceeding it will result in the air spring bulging out between the coils, which may cause the air spring to be pinched or rub a hole into the cylinder.
Jack up the rear of the vehicle and place safety stands under the frame so the wheels hang. Observe the brake line and do not over-extend the suspension. Wear safety glasses during installation. Removing the bottom shock bolt may aid in lowering the suspension if needed.
Exceeding the maximum recommended air pressure of 35 p.s.i. 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. Always maintain pressure between the minimum of 5 p.s.i. and maximum of 35 p.s.i.
After inflating the air springs to 10 p.s.i., spray all connections and the inflation valves with a solution of 1/5 dish soap and 4/5 water. Look for bubbles in the soapy water to spot leaks easily. Check all air line connections, the inflation valve core, and inspect the air line for holes and cracks. Ensure air lines are not pinched and have no kinks or folds.
A 2–4 p.s.i. loss after initial installation is normal. Check the air pressure again after 24 hours. If the loss is more than 5 p.s.i., retest for leaks using the soapy water solution.
Check the air pressure in the air springs weekly. Always maintain at least the recommended minimum air pressure of 5 p.s.i. to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Never inflate beyond the recommended maximum air pressure of 35 p.s.i.
Always add air to the springs in small quantities, checking the pressure frequently. Air springs require less air volume than a tire and inflate quickly, so gradual inflation prevents over-pressurization.
First, use a soapy water solution to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core before deflating and removing the air spring. Leak test all air line connections. Inspect the air line for holes and cracks and replace if needed. Check that air lines are not pinched (tie straps may be too tight) and that there are no kinks or folds in the line. If pressure loss exceeds 5 p.s.i. after 24 hours and you cannot find a leak, the problem is likely a failed air spring. Contact Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 for assistance or a replacement.

Yes. You must drill a 3/4" hole in the lower control arm for the valve stem and a 5/16" hole in the body sheet metal for the inflation valve. The manual provides a template for the lower control arm hole location.
Yes, the jounce bumper must be removed to install the air spring cylinder. Cut it off 1/8" under the steel cup, then remove it using a spring spreader or by cutting it in two with shears.
Minimum 5 p.s.i., maximum 35 p.s.i. Exceeding the maximum will cause the air spring to bulge and may damage it. Check pressure weekly and maintain at least the minimum to prevent pinching.
Inflate to 10 p.s.i., then spray all connections and valves with a 1/5 dish soap and 4/5 water solution. Look for bubbles. A 2–4 p.s.i. loss after 24 hours is normal; more than 5 p.s.i. indicates a leak that must be found and fixed.
Check air pressure weekly. Maintain minimum 5 p.s.i. and never exceed 35 p.s.i. Add air in small quantities, checking pressure frequently. If a leak develops, use soapy water to locate it before deflating.
Use a soapy water solution to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core. Leak test all connections by spraying with the soap solution and looking for bubbles. Inspect the air line for holes and cracks. Check that air lines are not pinched (tie straps may be too tight) and have no kinks or folds. If pressure loss exceeds 5 p.s.i. after 24 hours and you find no leak, contact Air Lift at 1-800-248-0892 as the air spring may be defective.
Check that tie straps are not too tight and replace them if necessary. Reroute the air line to eliminate any kinks or folds. Ensure sufficient slack is left in the air line to prevent strain during axle movements.
Replace the air line assembly. The kit includes a 15-foot air line assembly (part 20315). If the damage is localized, you may be able to cut out the damaged section and rejoin the line using a new line clip and tee fitting, but replacement is the recommended solution.
Leak test the inflation valve for leaks at the air line connection or check for dirt or debris in the valve core. Use a soapy water solution to identify the leak location. If the leak is at the connection, ensure the hose is fully seated on the valve and the line clip is properly secured. If the leak is in the valve core, the valve may need replacement.
