They should just pull off. Take the horn cap off the steering wheel. Take a screw driver and touch the shaft to the horn ring. It should spark. If it doesn't you have a 12 volts missing are a ground issue. Take a test light and leave the horn relay hooked up. The red wire should have 12 volts all the time. Black wire is ground back to steering column. Green wire goes to horns. Take your probe on test light and put it on the green wire. Push the horn button if it lights up then the relay is good and the problem is out by the horn. If it doesn't check the red wire to see if it has 12 volts are power. It should have power without touching the horn button. If no voltage trace the red wire out and see why it doesn't have 12 volts.If this checks out OK then check for the spark on the steering shaft. If no spark when you touch it then the ground wire in the turn signal connection may be missing are not making contact in the plug. The contact in the column should spark when it has ground to the shaft.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
