Features to know about

Stay Level Under Load: Up to 2,100 lbs of Rear Suspension Support

When you’re hauling heavy gear or towing a trailer, rear-end sag can make steering and braking feel sketchy. The Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs provide up to 2,100 lbs of load-leveling support inside your rear coil springs. They keep your ride level so braking, handling, and headlight aim stay consistent even when the bed is loaded down. By taking strain off your stock suspension, you also cut down on tire wear and overall suspension fatigue.

Dial In the Ride You Need: Adjustable from 5 psi to 50 psi

Every load is different, and these springs let you fine-tune the support. Inflate both springs evenly to stay level front to back, or set them separately with dual air lines to balance off-center loads. With a pressure range from 5 psi up to 50 psi, you can run them soft for daily driving or add air when it’s time to tow. The kit includes Schrader valves and tubing so you can set your pressure with a standard air compressor or upgrade later with an onboard system if you want fingertip control.

Smooth Out the Rough Stuff: Better Stability and Less Bounce

Heavy loads can make your truck bounce or sway through turns and bumps. These molded polyurethane air springs fit inside your existing coil springs to absorb road shock and reduce body movement so the truck feels more planted on uneven surfaces. With the suspension leveled out, steering stays responsive and the ride feels stable whether you’re crossing mountain roads or cruising the highway with a trailer in tow.

Straightforward DIY Setup: Installs Inside Existing Coil Springs

The Air Lift 1000HD kit installs right into your rear coil spring suspension using basic hand tools. Everything is included—two air springs, heat shields, tubing, Schrader valves, and hardware—so there’s no need for special brackets or complicated fabrication. Once installed, the system blends right into your factory suspension but delivers adjustable load support anytime you need it.

I had airbags previously on my 2012 Ram 1500 and they worked great. Installed the Airlift 1000 on my 2022 Ram 1500. For 1/2 ton pick up trucks these are the best bet and provide plenty of sag support. I used 2 floor jacks to suspense the rear end and used a bottle jack to help push the axel down to make removing the spring much easier (just place under bump stop with a piece of wood). Didn’t remove my spare tire and easily routed the airlines. For periodic heavy towing/hauling these are ideal especially for a 1/2-ton truck. No change in ride with 5psi and you maintain same ride height, unlike changing out the springs. I personally don’t like putting air valve in the license plate hole - having it in it’s own location forces you to look at more often and it doesn’t interfere with changes to your license plate holder.

Thanks so much for sharing all your install advise and tricks, Frank. I think you will help a lot of other readers looking to do this installation :)

My 28' 6600# camper made my truck sag too much. The Air Lift Springs worked perfectly! Easy to install and well worth the money! This picture is with the bags inflated to 40PSI, I think I can actually lower them to 30PSI. I will try that this coming weekend. Awesome product!

Just installed these air bags on my 2024 Ram 1500 Rebel. Followed the instructions and the installation went well. Here’s a tip: try softening the ends of the air hose in hot water before inserting them onto the fittings. Makes it a little easier. Haven’t hooked up the trailer to tow yet but leveling the truck should be a piece of cake.

Still doing a very good job.

So thankful I tried this! These bags were super easy to install. Simply folding/rolling and securing with zip ties allowed me to slide bags through the springs rather than disassemble everything…(there’s plenty of videos on YouTube) Definitely made a difference on pulling my camper, would choose this and this company again every time!

easy to install while I was converting to traditional coil springs.. Held air, haven't tried loading it down yet.

Made a huge difference in driveability. It is a Ram Classic 1500 with commercial shell, slide bed, and lots of tools. It looked like a squatted truck before the springs. Looks like it did new now. Drives like it did new.
by:
I had them installed by my mechanic. I use my Ram 1500 to tow a 12-foot cargo trailer with about 1400 pounds of contents. The bags just evened everything out with the tow. It made me feel much safer. The ride is a little more firm but I felt like it was a good trade-off.

Great - would highly recommend this for anyone whose trailering something that weighs down your back end. 2nd purchase of this item for two different trucks and am extremely happy with it. 1st we had this professionally installed and 2nd we were able to install ourselves with YouTube help. No need to remove springs!

nice air bags used in 2024 ram 1500 ,seemed good for beefing up suspension on extra load but i towed a 26' travel trailer and upgraded to Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle is much more stable

Installation was a breeze - of course after putting the truck on a frame lift and taking off the tires and wheel wells. Long enough line to run it to the bumper and really easy to fill. Impressive!

Within the first 2 weeks, one of the bags popped. etrailer.com gave us a replacement at no cost and we were able to get it installed right away. Since then, no issues at all after towing a motorcycle trailer and a camper. Havent needed to fill more than the initial and they are just a clean fit. Great product-highly recommend!

Never had it installed because two estimates were around one thousand dollars. I thought the air bags went inside the springs and would be an easy installation.

I purchased these a year ago. I tow a heavier camper and wanted more support on the rear of my Ram 1500. It works great. Up to this point I haven’t had any troubles. It will boost the rear end of my truck pretty high and easily offset the weight of the camper. I’m no mechanic and I was able install it without issue. Follow the instructions to collapse the air bags and use large zip ties to keep it collapsed. This allows you to work in between the springs easily. Before you let them go and cut the zip ties and allow them to reinstate, go ahead and run your air line in the top and down to make it easier to hook to the airbags. If you do this it make it easy to get inside the springs. You can use soapy water solution to make it slide between the springs easier to if needed. Theme just run your lines to the bumper. Nothing hard to do at all. I run them all year with around 7psi in them. It saids run them with a minimum of 5 psi. Them when your going to tow air them up. I usually air them up to 40psi and I’m all set to go. I would recommend them and place them also on the next truck I get.

We tow a Travel Trailer that has a very heavy tongue weight with our Ram 1500. Ram trucks have coil spring on the rear which make for an excellent ride, unless towing something with a heave tongue weight. The truck did not handle well while towing until we added these air bags. Tows like a dream now! We did not install the onboard compressor which can be ordered separately, but we will be doing that soon.

  • What Size Are AL60828HD Air Bags?
    Hey Dane! I went down to our warehouse to measure the airbags from Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60828HD and they came out to 12" tall (12-1/2" including Schrader valve) and 5" wide while uninflated. The manufacturer's specifications on the airbag are 12"x5.75"x8.75", so those measurements are likely going to be when the bag is inflated. This bag and kit is made for Ram 1500s starting in 2019. If you're looking for a bag that will fit your 2021 Jeep...

  • Will Air Lift Air Springs Fit 2024 Ram 1500 With Lift
    Hi Mark, It's possible but it's going to depend on if the Black Widow lift changed the OEM coil springs; if they did then the springs won't fit. And while I assume so, in my search I could not find anything specific on if the springs were changed or not, so just in case they weren't I wanted to offer the option. Additionally, keep in mind there are different parts depending on if you have the 2024 Ram 1500 or 2024 Ram 1500 Classic, which mention because the part you mentioned is for the...

    Hey Karl, the Air Ride kit part # AL60828HD can work on your 2022 Ram 1500 if it does not have air suspension. It looks like the air suspension was optional for the Rebel so you'd need to verify that.

  • Do The Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs Come With Schrader Valves?
    Hello Joe, thanks for reaching out. The Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60828HD also have schrader valves, but they are not connected to the air bags themselves. There is an air line that attaches to the bag and allows the schrader valves to be attached near the bumper for easier access.

  • Availability of Air Bags and Air Compressor for 2022 Ram 1500 TRX
    Hi Darren; the last vehicle you asked about was a 2024 Silverado 1500. Unfortunately, there are no standard air bags that are compatible with the TRX model. It looks like the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX comes with the air suspension system which means none of the suspension enhancement options will fit. If I'm wrong and you have coil springs, the next best thing is the Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60828HD. These have a load-leveling capacity up to 2,100 lbs....

  • Are There Air Bags For 2020 Ram 1500 2WD For Support When Hauling Camper
    Hello Donny, So there is one set of air bags for your 2020 Ram 1500 2WD, but since your truck has coil springs, they are actually replacements for those springs. There isn't a set of air bags that air up and down apart from these, but if you wanted to convert from your coil springs you would do so with the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595. These will definitely give you better support than your Ram's current coil springs due to the fact you can adjust them to the air...

  • Are Air Lift Coil Springs of LoadLifter 5000 Better for a 2022 Ram 1500
    I try to steer people away from the Air Lift 1000 for Coil Springs, like part # AL60828HD for your 2022 Ram 1500, just because the springs can pinch the bags where the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 # AL57375 just require the 5 psi minimum to help keep the brackets from pinching the bag. Unless you were going over really rough terrain you shouldn't have been experiencing much difference in ride quality if the bags were only set to 5 psi. The only thing I can think of is if you were really bottoming...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement For A 2019 Ram 1500 Bighorn 4WD
    Ram's will naturally squat a bit more because of the rear coil springs, but if you're dealing with a lot of squat then air springs would be the best option to help get you back to factory ride height. Coil air springs, like the # AL60828HD, that you were looking at will offer a bit of help but really don't make as much of a difference compared to regular air springs. Instead I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers # AL88375. These...

  • How Come Air Lift # AL60828HD Requires Removal of Coil to Install
    The HD air bags from Air Lift part # AL60828HD are thicker material than the non-HD bags which is why you can't slip them between the coils of the rear suspension. Instead you have to push the bag through the top of the coil spring.
