Hey guys.
I broke the retaining clip that goes on the top of Arnott shock.
I’m dead in the water without it.
Thought I read something about getting a replacement.

Found another way.

Hey guys,
If you happen to break your clip on the top of air shock, I found
A easy cheap and effective fix.
I used a small tie wrap. I put it on the hose end.
Since the hose end has a slot, I tightened the wrap to be snug.
After I got it seated properly I cinched up the tie wrap. That locked
the fitting to the air bag inlet. I guess in 15years I will need to snip the tie wrap
and install new air bags.
Easy Breezy.
