I would like to convert to springs, but have two concerns. What is your warranty, and how would I get rid of my "air suspension fault light" after installation?

Thank you for taking interest, The Kit is covered by a 1 year warranty, to remove the light we have discovered the safest way to disable it is through a Lincoln dealer where the Air ride system is disabled from the ECU this only takes minutes

Not sure on their warranty, but I'm pretty sure you have to learn to live with the light

Most conversion kits will come with an extensive warranty and the mechanic should know how to reset the warning light

You can continue to use your old springs until they become stretched. The way you tell this is by taking one off of the trampoline and holding it in the air against the sun. If you can see sunlight through the coils then they are stretched and will need to be replaced soon.

I'm not too sure, I sent it to my sister for Christmas last year and she lives 2000 miles from me. I do know you turn it upside down and add the springs somehow. If that doesn't work, write a email or call the maker of the product

Jim, I was unable to get the manufacturer to sell me individual parts and the distributor wouldn't honor a warranty claim. I ended up appealing to Amazon and getting a refund. I suggest you give them a chance - just don't waste much time if you don't get good service. It would be great if you do, so good luck and let us know how it goes.

That's not happened to me so I have no experience with obtaining parts. I agree with the previous 2 answers especially with taking the online approach. I would also check if there were any warranty centers in your area and contact them. Good luck!

Wish I could help but have no clue. It sounds "electrical", possibly a loose wire or a short. Do you know someone (like a teenager) who has some technical skills and a few test devices? You could call a B&D service center and see if they would do anything despite the warranty time limit or just to get an idea of the cost of repairs. As a last resort, take the motor housing apart (carefully and with your procedural memory engaged) and check for clues (wires, connections, burn marks, fuse). Hopefully you will find something (and be able to reverse the taking-apart procedure). If not, well, it could be a lost cause. At least, if it were me, it would be. Let us know how it turns out. Larry.

My advice is to send it back. My Bounce back lasted less than a year before the springs started ripping thru their supports. Champion said tough luck. Find a different brand.

they worked well for a time and then the spring mechanism failed, I think it was a while ago. check out RAM Mounting X grips

Do not know where to buy them other than looking for the manufacturer web site.... I have been using my Top O Matic since January 2014 and have no problems with the springs or anything else. I must say, this is the best little RYO machine!!

Daniel,Mine is a 99. I got a bad pair, one is longer than the other. I did not notice for a few days, after I discarded the original springs. I notified Marty at Dorman and basically told me tough *** . I cant send them back and be without my vehicle. The springs were just as week or weaker than the original pair with 230,000 miles on them. I am going to have to buy another pair(from other than Dorman) and eat the 250.00 I have in these. Amazon did not respond to me, Dorman said it is Amazon's problem.Had to drive it tracking to the left which ruined the new BFG all terain tires I had put on at the same time.

I don't know, I had someone install them for me. I don't know if he used the spring from the old lights or if the new ones came with it. I am very pleased with them.

anything you do to alter/change the suspension from gm factory will void your warranty if any failure is found to be directly related to the changes that you have made. having said that, i'm a parts manager at a gm store and have had our tech install the pro comp kit in my 2014 silverado along with alignment and have had no issues to date.

Don't know mine is broke down first time I tried to test it. Recoil starter fell apart. Waiting for pro trade to respond.

I have had this same thing happen to me after only ONE WEEK! Same answer.....tighten spring, re-install. This issue gives you an impression that these units are not made well!

Front shocks have to come off, disconnect sway bar, compress springs, lower axle, install on shock tower and reinstall everything.. If all goes well, about 2-3 hours

I installed mine on a 2002 Pontiac Bonneville. Since my original air pump was working fine, I chose not to replace the spring. I believe the spring replacement is a precautionary move just to ensure you are not looking at a failure some time down the road and have to get back under the car. Air shocks of any kind will not give you a soft ride as comparable to standard gas or fluid shocks. I do not feel my ride is harsh, but I do know the rear bushings need replacement, and they are instrumental in helping cushion the rear suspension and allowing the parts to move freely. I would look there before replacing the air shocks. I had thought about doing that to but decided I preferred having the automatic load leveling.

doubtful anyone else has done this conversion. Would think it would null the factory 1yr warranty, but best bet would be to contact LIFAN USA Directly to discuss
