Front Damper: Removal

WARNING: Air suspension is pressurized up to 10 bar. Dirt or grease must not enter system. Wear hand, ear and eye safety standard protection when servicing system.

It is possible to remove damper assembly without depressurizing air springs, providing distance between axle and chassis is held as if damper assembly were still fitted. This is achieved by supporting vehicle on stands with a jack under axle.
