Hi i am in the middle of replacing my rear air springs, and dropped the back down too quickly, the air spring top has come off. Does anyone know an easy way to install the top back on.

What make of airspring? If it's an Arnott it's fubarred, if it's a Dunlop then it can be re seated I believe, assuming we are talking about a P38 that is.

You should always put a little air in spring before dropping car back down. If you had no air in spring and pipe connected when you lowered you caused a vacuum in bag pulling it off mount. Can be replaced with a little effort and washing up liquid.

Thanks for that, washing up liquid and some force. All done now
