Yes, the Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 60819 (Part #BBCG60819) is designed to fit the 2007-2015 Ford Edge.
The Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 60819 (Part #BBCG60819) fits the following vehicles: 2007-2015 Ford Edge; 2007-2015 Lincoln MKX. Always verify your specific year, make, and model before ordering.
The Air Lift AIR LIFT 1000 60819 (Part #BBCG60819) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, kit 60819 is designed for Ford/Lincoln Edge MKX in both 2WD and AWD configurations. However, AWD models require additional steps during installation, including removal of the half shaft nut from the constant velocity joint and separation of the outer half shaft from the hub and bearing, which may require a special tool.
No. The Air Lift 1000 installation does not alter the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or payload of the vehicle. You must continue to check your vehicle's owner's manual and not exceed the maximum load listed for your vehicle. Exceeding the GVWR is dangerous and voids the Air Lift warranty.
You will need: 2 hoist or floor jacks, safety stands, safety glasses, metric and standard sockets/ratchet and wrenches, a drill with drill bits, pliers, an air compressor or compressed air source, and a spray bottle with a dish soap and water solution (1 part dish soap to 4 parts water). For AWD models, a special tool may be necessary to install the half shaft into the knuckle.
The manual does not specify whether battery disconnection is required. Contact Air Lift customer service at (800) 248-0892 for clarification on this step.
Yes. You must drill a 5/16" hole in the location where you mount the inflation valve. The manual recommends selecting a location in the gas cap well, trunk, rear bumper, fender flange, or behind the license plate, ensuring the valve is protected and accessible with an air hose.
1. Slide an air line clamp onto the air line. 2. Push the air line over the stem of the cylinder until the barbs are completely covered. 3. With pliers, slide the air line clamp over the barbs until it fully covers the barbed section. The air line must be inserted through a protector before being pushed onto the cylinder stem.
Torque specifications are: Lower arm outboard bolt & nut: 135 Nm (100 ft-lbs); Toe link outboard bolt & nut: 80 Nm (59 ft-lbs); Lower shock bolt & nut: 55 Nm (41 ft-lbs); Upper arm outboard bolt & nut: 35 Nm (26 ft-lbs); Brake hose bracket bolt: 7 Nm (62 in-lbs); Wheel speed sensor bolt: 7 Nm (62 in-lbs); Stabilizer bar link: 7 Nm (62 in-lbs); Brake caliper anchor plate bolts: 150 Nm (111 ft-lbs); Wheel lug nuts: 150 Nm (111 ft-lbs). Do not torque suspension bushing fasteners until the vehicle weight is resting on the wheels and tires.
Minimum air pressure is 5 PSI; maximum air pressure is 35 PSI. You must maintain at least the minimum pressure at all times to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Never inflate beyond the maximum pressure. Failure to maintain correct minimum pressure, bottoming out, over-extension, or rubbing against another component will void the warranty.
Inflate the air springs to 35 PSI after the installation is complete. Test for air leaks by applying a liquid solution of 1 part dish soap to 4 parts water to all valve cores, fittings, and connections. After 24 hours, recheck the air pressure. A 2–4 PSI loss after initial installation is normal. If pressure has dropped more than 5 PSI, retest for leaks.
Maintain at least 8 inches of clearance between the air line and the exhaust system to prevent the air line from melting. Leave sufficient air line slack to prevent any strain on the fitting during axle motions. When completing installation, raise the suspension all the way up and ensure the hose does not kink during this process. Leave slack at the top for the hose to move in and out freely during normal driving and in case the vehicle is serviced on a frame contact hoist.
Check the air pressure 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 maximum air pressure of 35 PSI.
If the air springs are properly installed and maintained, they can last indefinitely. Proper maintenance includes checking air pressure weekly, maintaining minimum pressure of 5 PSI, never exceeding maximum pressure of 35 PSI, and using a soapy water solution to check for leaks if an air leak is suspected.
Yes, 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 the air springs.
Use a soapy water solution of 1 part liquid dish soap and 4 parts water to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core before deflating and removing the air spring. Apply the solution to all valve cores, fittings, and connections to identify leaks. If pressure has dropped more than 5 PSI after initial installation, retest for leaks.
A tee air line installation is recommended for most applications. Use dual air lines only if the weight in the vehicle varies from one side to the other and unequal pressures are needed to level the load or compensate for axle torque transfer in racing applications.
Always add air to springs in small quantities, checking the pressure frequently. Sleeves require less air volume than a tire and inflate quickly. Start with the vehicle level or slightly above. When in doubt, always add air. For motorhomes, start with 50–100 PSI in the rear because it can be safely assumed that it is heavily loaded.
Inflate your air springs to 35 PSI before adding the payload. This allows the air cylinder to properly mesh with the coil spring. After the vehicle is loaded, adjust your air pressure down to level the vehicle and for ride comfort. When carrying a payload, increase the tire inflation pressure in proportion to any overload condition. Air Lift recommends a 2 PSI increase above normal for each 100 lbs additional load on the axle. Do not exceed the vehicle manufacturer's maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
The vehicle is not level. Raise the air pressure in the air springs to correct either of these problems and level the vehicle.
A rough or harsh ride may be due to either too much pressure or not enough pressure in the air springs. Try different pressures to determine the best ride comfort for your vehicle.
Stability issues include roll control, bounce, dive during braking, and sponginess. Tuning out these problems usually requires an increase in pressure in the air springs. Stability translates into safety and should be the priority, meaning the driver may need to sacrifice a perfectly level and comfortable ride.
If the front of the vehicle dives while braking, increase the pressure in the front air bags, if equipped.
If it is suspected that the air springs have bottomed out, increase the pressure in the air springs. Bottoming out occurs when the air spring compresses completely and contacts the upper spring seat or other components.
If the vehicle rocks and rolls, adjust the air pressure in the air springs to reduce movement. It may be necessary to maintain different pressures on each side of the vehicle. Loads such as water, fuel, and appliances will cause the vehicle to be heavier on one side, and as much as a 50 PSI difference is not uncommon.
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.
Yes. The minimum air pressure of 5 PSI should 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.
The manual recommends that once the installation has been completed, you check and if necessary align the vehicle. Alignment is recommended but the manual does not specify whether it is required.
Yes, kit 60819 is designed for Ford/Lincoln Edge MKX in both 2WD and AWD. AWD models require removal of the half shaft nut and separation of the outer half shaft from the hub and bearing, which may require a special tool.
You need 2 hoist or floor jacks, safety stands, safety glasses, metric and standard sockets/ratchet and wrenches, a drill with bits, pliers, an air compressor, and a spray bottle with dish soap and water solution. For AWD models, a special tool may be needed to install the half shaft.

135 Nm (100 ft-lbs). Do not torque suspension bushing fasteners until the vehicle weight is resting on the wheels and tires.
Minimum 5 PSI, maximum 35 PSI. Maintain minimum pressure at all times to prevent the air spring from being pinched. Failure to maintain correct minimum pressure will void the warranty.
Inflate to 35 PSI after installation is complete. Test for leaks using a 1:4 dish soap to water solution. A 2–4 PSI loss after 24 hours is normal; if more than 5 PSI is lost, retest for leaks.
At least 8 inches. Failure to maintain this clearance will cause the air line to melt.
Check weekly. Always maintain at least 5 PSI minimum and never exceed 35 PSI maximum.
Yes, for short-term service like tire rotation or oil changes. For prolonged hoist time, support the axle with jack stands to take tension off the air springs.
A 2–4 PSI loss after initial installation is normal and does not indicate a problem. However, if pressure has dropped more than 5 PSI after 24 hours, retest for leaks using a soapy water solution of 1 part liquid dish soap and 4 parts water applied to all valve cores, fittings, and connections.
