Arnott C-2285 Air Spring to Coil Spring Conversion Kit - Rear

Rear Air Spring Conversion for GM SUVs

Arnott C-2285 is a rear air spring to coil spring conversion kit for select GM SUVs. It replaces the rear air suspension with a passive coil spring setup, using powder-coated steel variable-rate springs for a standard replacement solution.

Compatible with 2002-2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT rear, 2002-2006 GMC Envoy XL rear, and 2004-2005 GMC Envoy XUV rear. Arnott NEW C-2285 is built for drivers looking to move away from rear air suspension components and return the vehicle to a conventional coil spring design.

Key Features

• Rear air spring to coil spring conversion kit
• Passive suspension design
• Powder-coated steel construction
• Variable-rate coil springs
• Standard replacement suspension grade
• Black spring finish

Product Details

Arnott’s NEW product line focuses on application-specific suspension replacement parts, and C-2285 follows that approach for GM SUV rear suspension conversions. This kit is designed around the rear suspension layout on Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, GMC Envoy XL, and GMC Envoy XUV models, providing a coil spring alternative where rear air suspension was originally used. The steel compression springs are rated for standard replacement use and are finished in black powder coating for added corrosion resistance.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address

• Rear air suspension failure
• Air spring leaks or loss of ride height
• Compressor cycling caused by leaking air components
• Uneven rear stance from worn air suspension parts
• Need for a conventional coil spring conversion on GM SUVs

Installation Notes and Tips

Install on the rear suspension only and verify vehicle fitment before beginning service. Because this is a conversion kit, the vehicle’s rear suspension system changes from air-based operation to a passive coil spring setup. Follow the service procedure for the specific Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, GMC Envoy XL, or GMC Envoy XUV application and confirm all suspension components are seated correctly after installation.

Quality Assurance

Arnott C-2285 is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty. The powder-coated steel spring construction and standard replacement design support long-term service in the listed GM SUV applications.
