What did you do with your Grenadier today?

I had the same kit installed on Wednesday. CR5177HP for standard height suspension.
I swapped a goofy eye for an inflation valve on each side.

With the airbags fitted it was riding high without a corresponding load so I have put 60kg (132lb) of ballast in the back for a couple of weeks to take out some of the height and bounce while the bags settle into shape. Airbags should only be inflated to restore ride height after the rear springs are loaded up. Minimum pressure is 5psi to retain shape and prevent pinching.

What pressure you like running at normal ? 5-10 psi?
Thank you! LOVE that mounting spot for the air fill valve!!!

I need those.

Did your installer leave a sticker with a QR code in your vehicle? It has the instructions for correct inflation and safe use.

Minimum unloaded pressure is 5psi.
Maximum pressure is 60psi for this HP kit (with the protective sleeves).
There's no fixed operating pressure. They are inflated sufficient to restore ride height.

Apologies if you know this already:

1. Measure the ride height from the lowest point of a rear wheel rim to a fixed body point like the edge of a wheel flare.
2. Add the load, connect the trailer, etc.
3. Inflate both airbags equally until the original ride height is restored. Do not exceed 60psi.
4. When the load is removed deflate the airbags to 5psi.

Do not use the airbags as a poor man's lift kit. Inflating the bags without a corresponding load on the suspension will restrict operation of the springs and make the vehicle unstable. Bad things will come from that.

Don't use a compressor to inflate the bags. Use a foot pump, hand pump or a low volume cordless inflator.
