Removing air suspension, replacing with coils

[pdxrealtor]

Great info! Thanks!

Is it possible to keep the compressor operational? A few uses for air a side from the suspension. Even though it is a week compressor system....

You could keep it in although I think it is controlled off the level sensors and switch in the cab. It probably weighs 30 lbs so I tore it out. I'm going to use the mount the compressors were on to mount my air horns, tank, and compressor. I'm going to see if I can tee the bed inflator port into the air line off the tank. But that write-up is for next weekend.

Thats what I was wondering, I have the spring set up but got the compressor to have on board in case I needed air for my tires or any other inflatable goodies and just use it for that alone.

Egan,

If you arent going to use your old harness, is there anyway that I could get it from you so I could use it for this purpose?

It looks like the wiring on the truck joins up with a much larger wiring loom at the bumper and then runs to the front of the H2. Pulling out just the air controls may be difficult. As for the wiring at the compressor end, I have it all pulled apart and you're welcome to any of it.

In fact, if anyone needs spare parts (compressor x2, tank, airbags x2) let me know.

How much would you want for the air compressor assembly? Thanks, RJ

Pulled all mine out in 2007

I need the wiring at the compressor end that it plugs into. It looks like is a 24 pin connection and theres another smaller 2 pin connector near it as well. You show it in one of your pics that says you zip tied it to the rear bumper.

Do you still have the bolts to the compressor too, so that I can get mine mounted?

Let me how much shipping is and I can send you payment via Paypal.

Thx,

I'd be interested in your ride height sensors (both sides) if they are good and not broken (which looking at how clean your under carriage is I guess they are perfect ).

Just PM me if interested w.price

Thanks

I left these in place, so let me see if I can pull them out tomorrow. I'll check the service manual, but do you have a picture of what they look like / where they are.

If you need the wiring that goes from the harness I tied up under the bumper to the compressor & solenoid, I have that. I also have the nuts and bolts for the compressors (nuts&bolts for the front of each, nut only for the rear - there are studs built into the mounting plate).

Keep in mind that this is the 2 compressor setup.

Send me a PM with your zip and I'll get a freight quote.
