Automatic Pressure Sensor
Low air pressure is the leading cause of air spring failure. To avoid this, you must either regularly monitor your air springs or find a device that will do that for you. Air Lift's Load Controller does just that. If the air pressure in your air springs falls below the minimum safe level of 5 psi, the system's low-pressure sensor detects the decrease in air pressure. Then the compressor activates automatically to adjust pressure as needed. If your particular application requires you to maintain a minimum of 10 psi in your air springs, you can also set the system to activate when the air pressure is below 10 psi.
Stylish, Compact Gauge
Load Controller comes equipped with a sleek-looking, compact gauge that provides detailed monitoring of your air pressure. The space-saving gauge can be mounted in whichever way works best for you. Just attach it to your dash using the included mounting pod. Or for a from-the-factory look, install the gauge using any custom pillar or dash pod (not included) with a 2-1/8 inch pre-cut hole.
Built into the face of this gauge is a one-touch, push-button control that allows you to inflate or deflate your air springs while monitoring their psi.
Dual-Path System
Load Controller is made to help support your air springs as they take on weighty loads, and it's great for heavy-duty and commercial applications. The dual-path controller lets you adjust two air springs independently of each other for better control. So aside from leveling your vehicle front to back, you can also level it side to side by putting a different amount of air into each spring. This allows you to even out an off-center load.
Alternatively, you can use the Load Controller to adjust and monitor two pairs of air springs independently. Using this configuration, you can inflate your front pair of springs to a different pressure than your rear springs. This will allow you to level your vehicle front to back.
Determining Ride Height
Load Controller will help to keep your vehicle at normal ride height. You can find the normal ride height of your vehicle by unloading it and measuring the distance between the bottom edge of your wheel well and the center of the hub. After you find and record this distance, you can regulate the amount of air that you send to your air springs to maintain normal ride height - even when you are hauling a heavy load.

etrailer customer service is the best! And they have quality products. I have purchased towing systems from etrailer in the past and always found them to be of high quality. They deliver their products very quickly.
This latest purchase of air helper springs was damaged in shipment. When it arrived, the box was torn, covered in tape, and 3 of the 4 large steel brackets were missing. Roger of etrailer was extremely helpful, and quickly sent me replacement brackets. These just arrived today (and the package was intact!).
It will take me a while to get the system installed on my truck, and I will write another review when I have the system working.
by: Rusty12/01/2022
Overall the system works very well. Installation was a breeze and everything needed was included. I like being able to adjust each spring individually and how easy the dual gauge is easy to read.
Unfortunately, my original dual gauge leaked air internally and I had to order a replacement because it would bleed off overnight. I went with a replacement that is the same as the original because I like how it functions better than the other options on the market. I hope that the new one does not begin leaking as well.

UPDATE! The replacement gauge has been working flawlessly. I’m super pleased with this setup! It keeps me level and stable while pulling my 5th wheel.

The air compressor is still working great over a year later.
by: Bryan08/19/2024
Had some custom fitting for my particular 5th wheel hitch but preferred the air bags to mount directly above the springs instead of inside the springs on the axle.

We purchased an AirLift to add to our 2015 Ford F-250 4X4 when we purchased a new (to us) Montana 3160 Legacy 5th wheel trailer. The air bag system helped with the rear droop that we were experiencing and helped level out our ride. While towing now, we are experiencing a much smoother ride. This package was well worth the investment.

Great, no issues, product works well.
by: matt06/11/2016
It's a nice kit and works as advertised. For heavy hauling an airbag kit is really nice. I've installed several now for friends. My f350 srw longbed had drive line vibration off the line when towing heavy loads. With the air bag kit I can maintain the normal drive line angle and that got rid of the nasty vibration.

I prefer speaking with someone when I order parts for my truck so when I say that ordering was effortless, smooth and easy then it was. Also delivery was on point.
by: Michael Glaser11/05/2014
E trailer was great fast shipping. The Kit was fairly easy, I installed it on f250 2012 4x4. My Ford has outfitter switches on it and it took long to reseach where outfitter leads and colors to the switches than it did to install. The Air lift controller lifts and lowers fairly quickly . I give this product and the company 5 stars.
by: Bruce 08/06/2020
Added the compressor system to Firestone Ride-Rite airbags on a small RV with a 2018 Ford Transit 350HD chassis. System was easy to mount and works great. Hardest part was deciding where to mount the gauge.

Shipped and received quickly, pretty easy install and my 2500 no longer squats under my 24k gooseneck
by: Shaggy T09/13/2022
Excellent product! The instructions to DIY are self explanatory and easy to understand. You just have to have common sense and the want to. My passenger side air bag was leaking by and I messaged Air Lift's warranty department. Within two days they responded and sent out a new bag without any questions asked. As long as you have proof of purchase and explain your problem in depth and troubleshooting you should have no problems.
by: Patrick10/29/2021
The customer service was not good, the airbags that I ordered were showing in stock and when I ordered them my order shipped minus the bags. Called to find out the status of them and nobody could give me an answer, they had a bad attitude when I asked them the status and assured me they would call me back. 2 weeks went by without a response, I called back again with the same result, they told me that they couldn’t get ahold of the manufacturer. I hung up the phone and called the manufacturer myself and got a status update that the bags wouldn’t be in stock for months. I had to cancel my order and reorder the smaller bags, they assured me that they would ship immediately as they were in stock, took 2 additional weeks to get them. Absolutely horrible experience…

- What Brackets do I Need to Fit the Firestone # 6781 on My 2015 Ram 1500?Thanks so much for providing the picture. The air bag you have is the Firestone # F6781. However, with this particular spring, the brackets that are compatible with this spring are not compatible with your vehicle. This is because the brackets that are compatible with your 2015 Ram 1500 are designed to fit certain models of air springs that have different mounting hole locations. You can try to use brackets designed to fit the air bags like the # F5092 and the # F5376, but these brackets...

- Recommended Air Bag Kit and Compressor For 2022 Chevy Express Van 3500 Motorhome ChassisFor your 2022 Chevy Express Van 3500 motorhome chassis you'll want to go with the Air Lift # AL88205 which is a confirmed fit. This will give you 5,000lbs of support to your suspension, but keep in mind this will not increase the payload or towing capacity of your vehicle. Since air bag kits don't include compressors you'll also need to pick up one like the Air Lift # AL25856 which is a dual path compressor meaning you can adjust the driver and passenger side air bags individually which...

I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57341. These have a load-leveling capacity of 5,000 lbs and will help keep you level while towing and hauling. They will also improve your ride quality and stability while protecting your tires from uneven wear as well as your breaks. These come with a lifetime warranty and are made in the USA.

I double checked with the folks at Air Lift and they actually do offer one air bag kit for the 2005 Chevy C4500 Kodiak, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57292. They do list a few specific models of the 4500 that it will fit, and I have included a screenshot of their fitment chart below. Aside from this one kit, everything else we offer for the 4500 will be the Timbren bump stops like you mentioned. The Timbrens work great for support when you are towing,...

I recommend installing the Air Lift Load Controller Compressor System # AL25856 to control the air pressure inside the front and rear air springs. This kit allows you to set the air pressure to the front differently than the rear to help dial in you ride quality.

These will give you between 500 and 1000lbs of load leveling support, so they will help the sag you're getting towing your 21' bass boat. I can't say I've seen someone wire an onboard air compressor to these bags. You could install the # AL25856, but I'd personally just use a battery power...

Both parts are a fit for a 2021 Ford F-350, but the Air Lift # AL35FJ Load Lifter 5000 is a fit for single rear wheel trucks (SRW) and the # AL26KV is a fit for Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) trucks. You might also be interested in an on-board compressor system like part # AL25856.

For a LoadLifter 7500 XL kit that offers up to 7500 lbs of support, the # AL57531 Air Helper Spring Kit you'd looked at would be a great choice. For 5000 lbs of support, go with # AL57231.

The airbag suspension and controller system work great. I have a 2017 RAM 3500 dually and I built the control system into the dash. There are cubbies under the floor in the back seat and I mounted the compressor and valves into one. The system keeps the truck level and stable even with our heavy camper loaded. I would definitely recommend this system if your truck needs a little extra spring in its step.
