Just the hard part to fixing all the air leaks from the first time after you put on everything. Heres some more tips: If you screw on fittings not tight enough or too tight, air will leak. So it'll take you sometime to get adjusted with the tightniess. Dont be surpried if he gets leaks galore on the first time of airring up. Just keep spraying soapy water and re-do the fitting (unscrew it , rethread it with teflon tape, screw back on) and check if its fixed. Fix each leak one at a time.

almost sounds to me ya don`t know what your talkin about dude, look if ya take your time and have experience with installs of air suspension you will not have a problem, there is no need to re-install fitting twice!! one time and that`s it
ya the soapy water is a good idea, but the experience is needed with the install

lol.... noob.
richie knows his poop.
air fittings are tempermental, like he said, too tight, or not tight enough, it can be hard to tell and will leak either way.
sure someone who has done 100+ air installs might get a little more lucky, from expirience alone. but we're talking about installing your airride yourself.

I dont have a problem with my suspension.. its leak free for 3 months now (had the air ride since may). I'd just redid some relocating of a compressor and cleaned up the wiring in the back. Before It was hell cuz I couldn't access the wiring cuz it was behind my air tank. I was telling him since its his first time doing it. Just giving him some pointers.
