Air Lift 57288 LoadLifter 5000 Air Spring Suspension Kit

Great product install was easy if you follow the directions, fit perfectly and looks as if they belong from factory. They function perfectly and the truck stayed level with a pallet (one ton) of pellets in the bed and I only pumped 42 lbs in them. The ride was not harsh and still had travel in the suspension without and rattle.

Awesome product and easy to install. Months later no leaks

Needed a rear lift for a travel trailer towed by a new Silverado Duramax, all within the tow capacity for the truck. The rear was sitting a little low (with 700lb tongue weight, 7200lb loaded) than reasonable and had oncoming drivers flash their lights because my headlights were beaming high when trailer was attached. Installation seemed to be fairly simple after viewing YouTube videos and I almost began installation myself but for time constraints regarding the trailer, so had a mechanic do it at the shop. It turns out this is preferable for those that have limited time because getting bolts tightened for the upper anchor is not trivial, and having the truck elevated on a lift makes it much easier than working upwards on your back. I was involved in the installation and what should have been a simple 2hr project extended to 4hr on the hydraulic lift. Nevertheless, after installation air bags worked perfectly, truck likes it and so does the trailer. Air bag therapy successful! I notice a very small pressure leak on one side that may be caused by hose attachment but is manageable. Overall very happy with these air bags, everyone is happy, and better leveling should also help stability of the truck and trailer.

I had read a lot of the reviews before purchasing. Which made me somewhat skeptical about buying this kit. But I knew I needed some kind of ride control assist after my last 1900+ trip pulling my 24' 9700lb loaded enclosed car hauler with my Silverado 1500 4WD. Even with the equalizer hitch & bars I couldn't get the truck near level. And crossing some of those box culverts in Montana, it felt like my truck was going to break in half. So, I bit the bullet and purchased this kit, mostly because of its' price. I was more than just pleasantly surprised. This kit comes with everything you need to install them. The installation was almost as easy as just placing the box beside the truck & opening it. Some of the reviews I had read claimed you needed a hoist, had to modify some of the brackets or your truck in order for it to fit. What a bunch of "B/S". I'm a retired 75 yr old. The installation took me 4 Hrs. in my driveway. It's as simple as jacking the truck up & placing J stands on the frame in front of the rear axle & removing the back wheels. With the wheels off, you can do 90% of the installation sitting on a stool from the side and hardly have to get under the truck. Leave the floor jack under the dif. as you'll need it latter to raise the axle when tightening the upper bag bracket U-bolts. The bags almost installed themselves. The only thing I had to move/swing out of the way was the brake line & wire loom brackets on the front of the axle. Which went back into their original place after the bottom bag brackets were tightened down. I did however decide to "T" the airline to facilitate the placement of a single air valve inside my gas door. So, I purchased a push fit stainless steel T. That was the only additional piece I had to buy. Which was my own choice. Since installing the Air Lift Kit, I have made another 1900+ trip pulling my 24' 9700lb loaded enclosed car hauler with my Silverado 1500 4WD. This time the trip was a dream. I ran the bags inflated to 70PSI. The truck sat level, was effortless to control. This Air Lift Kit was well worth the money. I've now had them on for over 5 months & 6K miles. I run them at 8PSI when I'm not towing which gives the truck a comfortable ride. Which my wife hasn't complained about yet. I'll never own another truck without putting an Air Lift Kit on it. Great product.

Great addition to the truck. Makes towing a trailer in my 1500 feel light. Installation took time, but they had good directions

The Air Lift was excellent. I installed it myself. Took it on trip this past weekend and it worked as expected. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because the instructions were not the best. I found a video on the Tube which was a life saver. They need to update their instructions. But over all, I would highly recommend this product. I called their customer service and they were very helpful.

Works as they should

Got to put these air bags to the test this past weekend. Hauled my 7,000# camper with Silverado 1500. Air bags made a big difference. No more bouncing at the hitch, less sway, and much more stable tow. Highly recommend if you’re towing at the high limit of your vehicle.

Research for a while trying to decide what brand I wanted and seemed like airlift was the way to go. Decided to order these and showed up reasonably quick. Did the instal myself and went pretty well! Took me around 2 hours to do and instructions were pretty straight foward. Plan to buy airlift compressor soon also

No he podido montarlos !! Sé que cumplirán su función al 100, recomiendo en mi zona comprar e instalarlos me salía 10 veces lo que me costó! Y uno mismo los puede instalar

Great product

Super Easy install, good instructions, work well 👍

Easy install and fitted really well. One note to add: At even 5 psi(min. allowed), these small air bags pressure up to 20-25 psi momentarily when hitting sharp bumps and feels very rigid as the air bags compress to absorb the big bumps. To reduce the effect of this, I added a 1 gallon air tank, mounted it in the truck box and tied both air bag lines into it. This reduces the harsh/rigid feel by essentially tripling the air volume of both bags and allows for a softer feel in all conditions. PS: I also added a TPMS monitor(sold for motorcycles) on the Schrader fill valve to monitor minimum air pressure and pressure spikes on my phone via Bluetooth.
