Video Transcript for Review of Pacbrake Vehicle Suspension - Alpha HD Rear Axle Double Convoluted Air Bag Kit - PB32ZV

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Pacbrake Alpha HD rear axle double convoluted airbag suspension kit. Now this kit has been designed for your 2019 and newer Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 with the two and four-wheel drives. And this kit is going to work with all truck bed lengths. However, this is not going to fit models equipped with the adaptive ride control. If you have the AT4 or Trail Boss four-wheel drive models, you should use the kit that you see there on your screen instead, identified by the model number that you see there, which comes with the required two-inch spacer.

On custom fit parts such as this kit, I do recommend taking advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com. Simply input the year, make, and model of your vehicle and our fit guide will confirm if this will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. So when the load gets heavy, your truck is going to need more than just those factory rear springs hanging on for dear life. These airbags are gonna give you up to 5,000 pounds of rear axle support, keeping your truck level and steady, even when the trailer is loaded and the bed is packed and the miles are long. So you're not gonna have to worry about any more rear end sagging, throwing off your braking and steering or your headlights pointing up to the sky.

Every haul is different, of course. That's why these air springs give you full control over your ride height and firmness, with adjustable air pressure from five to 100 PSI. Hauling a fifth wheel or a full bed of gravel, then you can just crank up the pressure in the bags. And then when you're unloaded and you're heading home, you can just drop that pressure back down, giving you a softer ride. With the manual inflation valves included, tuning your suspension for the day's work is gonna be very easy, very straightforward.

Now if extreme hauling does demand extreme durability, these springs are built with one inch thick corrosion-resistant end caps, which you can't see because I do have them kind of loosely assembled, and I've got the roll plates here on the top and the bottom. But these also are reinforced with 20 internal support wires for maximum strength under that heavy load. And then these roll plates are heavy duty. They are designed to protect the bags from chafing and help extend their lifespan. And then these custom fit powder coated steel brackets are going to resist rust and corrosion, road salt, all those rough seasons, such as if it's a bitter cold or if it's scorching heat, or mud-slicked job sites.

This system is designed to outlast whatever the road is going to give you, mile after mile and load after load. Now I do wanna point out that with Pacbreak, the word that comes to mind is premium. I have dealt with in the past, with other manufacturers, airbag suspension kits. They all have their strengths, but I'm just immediately impressed by the quality of the materials that, especially the materials used to construct the bag, the powder coat finish on these brackets, everything with this kit just speaks of a premium quality to me. So if you're looking for a top-of-the-line air suspension kit, in my opinion, Pacbreak is going to be the way to go. These precision laser cut custom fit brackets are designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's existing mounting points without welding or drilling to your frame. You're just, of course, gonna use the included hardware. And so this kit is designed to work with your setup today. And wherever your upgrades are going to take you tomorrow, you're gonna be able to inflate them manually with the standard air valves right out of the box, no extra parts needed. And then if you already have an onboard compressor, these are gonna be able to connect easily to most existing setups. And then if you're planning for an in-cab wireless controller sometime down the road, that's not gonna be a problem, because with this kit, you're building that foundation so that you can expand in how you're going to control these down the road. So again, the load leveling support's gonna be up to 5,000 pounds, but just be aware of the fact that airbags do not actually increase the weight carrying capacity of your truck. So you do wanna make sure that you're not exceeding your manufacturer's recommended weight limit.
