Hmmm. On the A/B video, they remove the fitting from the end of the air line after unscrewing it from the strut, then, upon reinstallation, just push the air line into the new fitting that's preinstalled on top of the strut. (start at 8:10)


They're using the OE Delphi struts, though. I'm using Arnotts, so not sure what they come with.

I recognize that you guys are the ones who've done this before, so I'm just an armchair web warrior at this point.

that works.
but be very careful how much you thread in the fitting before you insert the airline. id be concerned with threading it in too much, compressing the sleeve, then the airline wouldn't fit.

It is correct you can just press the airline into the compression fitting if it’s clean and smooth - I put a light coat of grease and I mean light and slide it into the compression fitting
