Whats the correct way to uninstall an air suspension?

Im going to remove the air suspension and put on eibach prokit with dampers

question is what is the safe way to remove it? Should the bags be raised up high? Deflated?

Any tips or help are appreciated

thanks

Jack up the car, unplug the compressors, and just play w/ it until the tank is empty.

Super T pretty much summed it up. The rest is just like removing springs/shocks.

put it up on jack stands let air out... to do this if you have a three switch hit the pankcake button to go all up and the other switches to go all down it pretty much opens both solenoids and the air flows out...

If the car is raised on all 4 corners your going to have to deflate the bags especially the rear ones to have them removed. Once you have all the air out of the bags youll have to disconnect the air lines and then empty out the tank. Its alot easier to remove it, than to have them put on.

the other day i installed new compressors and damn that was a pain in the ass to install. i think taking off the whole kit would be problematic for me.
