Its very easy, just make sure they dont leak. My right front is leaking after being parked for an hour. I have to say, they stand behind their product.

Let me know if you have any issues, I will provide whatever information I can.

Arnott air bags

I installed 2 Arnott front air struts on mine with no problems at all. It's been around 6 mo, and front end never deflated on me. I have other issue now: my '04 4.8is is "uncomfortably" sitting on its rear end. And of coarse "self-leveling inactive" message is constantly "ON". I have a feeling I'm gonna have to replace two more bags. How difficult was rear struts/bags replacement?

I'll check for leaks tomorrow and see if i can solve it or not.
