Rough highways can make towing feel like a rodeo. The Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade takes the hard hits out of your ride with two air bags that absorb road shock and reduce the fore-to-aft movement known as chucking. It replaces your standard equalizers in a tandem axle setup, giving the trailer a much smoother and more stable feel. Adjustable psi lets you fine-tune the air pressure for loaded or unloaded towing, so you can dial in the comfort you want.
Heavy loads demand suspension that can keep up. The Center Point system works with axles rated up to 8,000 lbs and uses your existing double-eye springs to spread the weight evenly between axles. This design not only cuts down on bounce but also improves braking performance during emergency stops. It’s a strong, purpose-built upgrade made to handle serious hauling.
Low-sitting trailers scrape and drag on driveways or uneven ground. Installing the Center Point adds 2" of height, giving you better ground clearance for plumbing, stabilizers, and frame components. That extra lift also helps level the trailer when towing behind taller trucks, keeping your setup balanced and your hitch geometry right where it should be.
Even if the air system loses pressure, you’re not stranded. The Center Point includes mechanical bag stops that let you keep traveling safely without air until repairs can be made. It’s a simple but smart safeguard that keeps you on schedule no matter what the road throws your way.
Swapping out those old equalizers doesn’t have to be complicated. The kit comes complete with the mounting hardware you need for installation on standard 1-3/4" double-eye spring setups. Once installed, you’ll notice the difference right away—quieter operation, smoother towing, and less stress on your trailer and cargo.

These really smoothed out the ride and added a couple inches of lift which I needed.
Excellent customer service
All is perfect
Worth the effort. Enjoying new brake sy stem.
Adding disc breaks to my was the best upgrade I have ever made. The breaking power is fantastic, they are always in adjustment and I can stop my 36 ft 5th wheeler faster and safer with less strain on my truck.
The box was ripped open and some parts are missing
The product looks great. Very well built. Arrived on time. The air gauge was package with the heavy spring linkage and glass is cracked. Will add a picture. Will add a review after I get it installed. Ken
These air springs were night and day difference on our Vanleigh Beacon. We cannot recommend them enough. We bought a couple spare bags in case one blew out we would not be stranded as it might prove difficult to find them locally.
Product delivered in perfect shape. Had local RV repair shop install. Thought this was doing a great job till we took a trip to AZ and I17 from Flagstaff to Camp Verde proved me wrong. We had several things broke in kitchen. Wish I would have gone with moryde IS. If you have a short trailer that doesn’t weigh over 12k empty these would probably work great. Will be going to moryde in Sept to get IS and selling mine.
Center Point Air Suspension Upgrade performed as advertised. We have a noticeable decrease in movement of items inside our Fifth Wheel after traveling. I would recommend and would do it again.
It did not fit my unit. It would not slide up in between the bracket on the chassis. Would have required cutting the bracket off, obtaining a different bracket and welding it in place. It's a nicely designed product and would have given it a higher review but etrailer made me pay return shipping at $129.00. This is the reason I no longer purchase from etrailer.
Outer box came badly damaged but all parts their minus parts list and instructions.they where email to me immediately while I was on the phone.I install the air assist by myself on gravel with 2 bottle jacks and hand tools and torque wrench.excellent kit had everything needed.
I purchased this because I needed to lift my trailer 2 inches. I know that is not the purpose of this suspension. The suspension seems okay although not a noticeable difference with my Morryde CRE3000's. It did not raise my trailer at all. Zero. Huge waist of time and money!
Before purchasing and installing these we were breaking leaf springs about once a year. Since adding this package, we are doing well (and the roads have not gotten any smoother!).

hey are holding up. Adding the air cushion package we also bought from your company seems to have addressed our breakage issue. Thanks for asking. Pleasant surprise!
I absolutely love this setup, it takes almost every bump out of play when towing my 5th wheel. Speed bumps are almost non existent. I would highly recommend this product, it's well worth the investment.

It works flawlessly, couldnt have made a better choice youll feel more of the bumps in your truck than you will the trailer. If youre a hunter and want to go down a bumpy dirt road, no problem. I would highly recommend this system.
I had been looking at different equalizers with rubber components to give my 5th wheel a softer ride, then I seen the the Lippert center point setup, so I started watching videos of both, and after sometime thinking it over I decided to go with the Lippert center point because I used to drive a semi truck and trailer and both of them had air ride suspension, so for the money this was about as close to that setup as I could go without spending a lot more money, so for me I went with air ride 5th wheel pin box and Lippert center point suspension, I don’t have the suspension installed yet but I know it will make a lot of difference
This was a 100% upgrade. The pull is better, no shifting in the fridge or pantry. Much smoother ride even if the road is rough. Took my time a day and a half installing as I did on my own without help.
Installed slippers Center Point system on out Alpine 3101RL 5ver. The install is straight foreward if your mechanically inclined. Now about the lack of instructions, nothing shipped from Lippert. etrailer provided a link to help with that. I do prefer printed instructions opposed having to scroll through my phone with dirty hands.
The torque specs provided by Lippert don't align with normal torque charts for said fasteners. The banana shackles are very thin and unplated,they are just raw steel. For the cost of the suspension Lippert cound do better on the shackles in this kit. Lippert recommends in stalling the air gauge for the air bags outside,however to gauge is a cheap plastic model. I feel it would have a short life span exposed to the elements. The good now, it seems robust and likly to help absorb road shock. I have not had our 5ver on the road yet. But I will leave more feed back when I have. I purchased this suspension system after finding a broken main leaf on our front tandem. I replaced all of our leaf springs bushings and bolts with the wet bolts
Supplied in the kit. FYI Lippert neverfail bushings fail in less than 7k miles. We are not over weight.

A year has passed an our center point system is still going strong. This system.has reduced the road shock that our 5ver has to endure. We are full timers. We put 7k miles on this season.We have decided that there is less movement of stored item,such as our pantry items.
It was the best thing that I ever did to my trailer. The trailer road so smooth hitting bumps hitting bridge joints usually made the trailer bounce up and down, scattering stuff inside the trailer after putting on suspension everything was stacked just like I put it in after the road trip Excellence suspension would recommend to anyone
I love it. I had a MorRide system installed on a previous trailer, but the Center Point system rides just as wee, if not better for a third of the price.
Shipped and received as ordered and describe. Only missing 1 lock nut for bolt that went on left side to frame. Installed myself and took about 3 hrs to complete installation and run air lines and gauge. Only thing there was no installation instructions for torquing nuts. Will see how it handles Wednesday 5/30/24 on getaway trip to see Micky and Minnie. My fifth wheel is 44 ft long Forrest Glen Wildwood Heritage Glen Elite 16,000 lbs. Note: Had to modify the piece that slides up into frame mine had a reinforced piece welded inside on frame had to notch each side to slide another 1/4 “ up for blot to go though hole.
Unfortunately it didn’t fit my application. But looked to be of great construction. If you have slip spring. Don’t buy it. Save everyone’s time and money because it won’t fit. If you do anyway the good people at etrailer will help you out quickly. Thanks Etrailer
Just installed the lippert center point and I have to say very impressed on how well it’s built. Super easy to install and I can’t wait to take it down these California roads and see how much better it rides. Installed on a 2022 jayco eagle Ht 29.5 BHDS

It’s been about a year since I installed the lippert center point air ride, I have to say I’m very impressed. I’ve probably put about 2000 miles on since then and 90 of the time I can’t even feel the trailer behind me, it rides so much better, stuff hardly moves around in the trailer. Don’t get me wrong stuff still moves but not like before. If you are looking to not spend a lot of money to upgrade your trailer suspension I recommend the lippert center point air ride. Oh and let me tell you speed bumps are nothing it fells like it just floats over them. And also a thank you to etrailer when I installed this product I was missing a few parts and the replaced them and also helped me with information on installation.
Very complete kit. This kit even has replacements bushing and greasable bolts for the far ends of you leaf springs. Only downfall was the shackles were bare steel. I would have like to seen these powder coated. Overall an easy install and a great kit. Now it’s time to see if it was worth the money. SUPER FAST SHIPPING AND GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM E-TRAILER AS ALWAYS.
Thie installed on a 2020 Momentum G Class 23G. The only modification was to turn the fresh water dump valve 45°. I will eventually replace the valve with a cable pull dump valve but this works for now.

The install looks great, Walter! Sounds like you really know your way around the trailer. Do you do this type of work for a living?
The system works well and is easy to install for any DIYer. It bolts in place simply and seems to take a lot of the shock out of the road bumps to protect my springs. The only suggestion I have is that they need to be sure to use high quality air fittings because this style is very finicky about perfect right angle cuts and I had to hunt down some very minor but annoying leaks. Also, the system comes in one box that is EXTREMELY heavy and doesn't ship well. They'd be better shipping it in 3 separate boxes.

I am glad you were able to get it installed yourself and hope it is working well. I appreciate the feedback on those air fittings and I will definitely pass that along. What kind of trailer did you end up installing this on?
