Hy-Tech Wheel-Lift Installation (Pickup)
1.) Rear Leaf Springs: We strongly recommend that you increase the number of leafs in the rear main springs before you begin the installation process. In most cases we have found that these additional leafs (Dodge – 4 leafs, Chev. – 3 leafs and Ford – 2 leafs), in addition to an in-cab controlled airbag system, will be adequate in most cases. The use of an airbag system has always proven to be far more effective than additional helper/overload springs.

There are ancillary differences between engines, the most obvious being different water and oil pumps on van engines. Sumps from cars have smaller capacity than vans. TDi engines have a different breather system with two hoses to the sump.

Revised seals were made available, and eventually new rack assemblies were recommended for those with worn or grooved housings, thus promoting internal leakage.
