  • In this video we unbox, and install the Air Lift 25804 Air Shock Controller Kit on my 1989 Silverado. This install should work for all 89-94 trucks with the same interior.
    *Notes* I found myself with a pretty bad air leak after this install. Tracked it down to where the brass elbow screws onto the shock system filler valve. Used a bit of thread tape and fixed it up.

    Thanks for the video. I'm about to buy this kit and I always like to watch someone install something before I do so I know if I need to order anything else to go with it. I hate starting a project and having to stop to go buy more stuff I need.

      Longer screws for the panel if you mount it there. That was it if you don't do the other mod with the filler. I would suggest using a real ad-a-fuse instead of the tabs they send. Seems to be hard on the socket.

      an update to this. Thread tape. i had a pretty bad leak, and tracked it down to where the brass end threads onto the filler for the shock system. 3 wraps of tape fixed it up.

      @@Blakes-Garagecould I just use another union tee instead of the screw on brass?

      @@moycorral7870 you could, but would have to find one for the right size hoses. The hose in the pump kit is bigger than the hose on my Monroe air shock set. The original picture of the parts kit I purchased showed the T fitting with 2 hose spots and the middle was the threaded part. When I received the kit it had a 3 hose T and the threaded part separated.

    So how much travel or lift do you have with 40 pounds?I have Monroe air shocks on my 1987 mazda b2000 just need a couple inches lift to haul.

      I normally run out about 20-25lbs, sometime that's what the manual suggests. I don't think it goes up much at all at that pressure.
