I spent about 4 hours yesterday busting the S#@T out of my knuckles (and my face too!!!) yesterday replacing the rear air shocks in my 94 RMW. I bought an AC Delco Air Ride shocks (came with a shreader valve kit) and one of the Stainless "U bolt" kits and have the air pump hooked up to a manual switch (since the level on the rear axle busted).
With the new shocks installed and hooked up to the pump, the air shocks wouldn't expand. I pulled the pump and it was pushing air. Thinking I didn't have enou pressure, or a line had a hole in it somewhere or ??? I hooked compressed air up to the line by the pump and the shocked still wouldn't rise. Getting frustrated, I hooked the plastic lines up to the shreader valve and while laying under the car hooked compressed air up to the shreader valve and STILL NO RISE?!
So I have new shocks, new lines and compressed air, but rise in thr shocks?!
Since it was getting dark, I clipped the damn lines and called it quits...
Anyone had such a problem getting the air ride shocks to lift?
(Was really hoping to take the camper out soon...)
