Note: When servicing your truck with Air Lift air springs installed, if the truck is lifted by the frame, the air must be let out of the springs. And if the rear of the truck is lifted during service, then it must be supported by jack stands to avoid damage to the air springs.
Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 was designed with an exact purpose: to provide full-time, first-class support to your 1/2-ton, 3/4-ton, or 1-ton pickup. With this kit, you get a safer ride and simultaneously protect your vehicle from the strain that comes with hauling massive loads.
Carrying heavy cargo in your truck bed or trailer puts tremendous stress on your vehicle. Your brakes erode faster, your tires wear unevenly, and handling suffers severely. When towing, you might also experience excessive sway, bottoming out, and even improper and unsafe headlight aim. Fortunately, there is a solution to these problems. By pairing your existing suspension with the LoadLifter 5000, you can seriously beef up your suspension, ensure equal load distribution, and give your vehicle the support it desperately needs. Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 provides up to 5,000 lbs of load-leveling capacity and distributes the weight of your payload to all 4 wheels. As a result, the stress on your OEM suspension is significantly reduced.
LoadLifter's air bags are adjustable from 5 to 100 psi for precise support, and they can be inflated independently of one another for front-to-rear and side-to-side leveling. They are made of high-quality, 2-ply, fabric-reinforced rubber. Most air bags lose air at the ends, where the bag is enclosed with a steel cap, because the steel can rust and corrode over time, creating small holes. The endcaps on Air Lift air bags are fashioned from corrosion-proof Zytel nylon, a material that is both stronger and lighter than steel, ensuring that the air bags won't lose air. Also, LoadLifter 5000 comes with Air Lift's exclusive roll plates, which both protect your air springs and beef up the load capacity of the springs.
This system installs with the included brackets and hardware. Just mount the springs, inflate them, and ride. To inflate the LoadLifter springs, you just have to pump air in through the inflation valves. A line kit is included with the springs so that you can install the valves (one for each spring) in an easily accessible area - typically they are installed on the bumper. If you want to make the springs even easier to use, you can get a compressor and gauge system (sold separately).
Air Lift kits are designed 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 put into your air springs to maintain normal ride height - even when you are hauling a heavy load. You will need to adjust the air pressure in your air bags according to the size of your load.
Along with a lifetime warranty that has no mileage restrictions, Air Lift offers a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. Just install and use LoadLifter 5000 springs for 60 days, and if you are not satisfied at the end of this time, you can remove them from your vehicle and return them for a full product refund. Now that's confidence.

Installed thes a year ago. I use them to pull my 35 foot fifth wheel camper. They are fantastic I recently added the wireless remote air compressor kit. I really love that!
Air Lift air springs are good and dependable, use them for the last 25 years on three pick-ups always worked great. My complaint would be against the lousy packaging which came with two or three holes and all messed up, luckily all that was missing was one washer.
I have a 2020 F250 and when I hook up to my 14000 pound 5th wheel the pickup would sag a little. It pulled okay as-is but it really needed to be level for better stability, braking, and headlights. I purchased the Air Lift Loadlifter 5000 from etrailer and after they had installed it, what a difference it made. With just the install, it elevated the bed one additional inch with only 5 pounds of air in the bags. Once I hooked up, I put 25 pounds of air in the bags which was plenty to raise the bed to just beyond level. I am very satisfied with this addition and if you are experiencing sag, I highly recommend this product. For the minimal cost of the product, it was well worth the investment in safety, ride comfort , and stability.
Works great. Piece of cake to install by yourself. Read the instructions a couple times and watch the [online] video a couple times. Only problem is the screw going into the unit worked its way loose and had to be retightened.
Bag had a hole in it and I didn’t find it until I had already installed them because in was in a bolt hole. Now I’m waiting to get another bag from airlift because y’all can’t warranty there product. My next purchase was going to be the compressor kit to go with the bags but not now. The whole warranty thing is very frustrating. My opinion don’t sale anything you can’t warranty yourself.
Jenny N - 05/03/2022Shipping of product time wise was awesome, The box with airbags was damaged and airbag was scuffed up, The box with fuel compressor leveler system was great. Photos and email sent to etrailer. Profit not installed yet. Will update with photos after installation is completed .
Sierra K - 12/06/2021Kit was very complete and instructions were clear and thorough. etrailer made sure I got the right kit for my particular truck and it arrived quickly.
Amazing product! Easy install! But don’t be like me, just drop the spare tire and make your life 1000x’s easier. Also, fit perfect on 2022 F250 6 3/4 ft bed. No leaks and plenty of hose to route the shearer valves where I wanted. If you’ve got the extra coin, I’d buy the air compressor and in-cab switch for this unit. I didn’t at the time and still don’t, but when I do I’ll buy it so I can add/remove air as needed in the cab to adjust the ride for various loads.
After encountering an issue with the wrong part being shipped, Paula S. did an OUTSTANDING job of seeing to it a replacement was expedited to me in a timely fashion.
Easy install. Only problem is the hose clamps for heat shield to small. This is my 3rd set of air lifts(different trucks) . Definitely buy again.
Used the product before an liked it but it came delivered extremely damaged from shipping an disappointing that I ordered it under my name an it was shipped to my house under another name. Sad when [online vendor] can ship the same product an it doesn’t get damaged because they actually pack it right.
Jenny N - 11/11/2022The Airbags work great. Installed airbags over a week ago. installation took a little over 3 hours. I installed the airbags on my Ford F 350. The only work around was on the drivers side. I had to angle u-bracket past left shock bolt. Besides the shock great product. I ride 10 psi on drivers side and 5 psi on passenger side while not under load. My 2022 F 350 rides a little lower on drivers when not under load. I think this is due to a 48 gallon diesel tank. I tow a 40 foot fifth wheel on a regular bases. When under load travel with 50 psi on drivers side and 40 psi on passenger side. The airbags put my vehicle back to preload level.
Fast delivery. Box was beat up and ultimately, 2 10” carriage bolts were missing. I was immediately sent out a whole new hardware pack. Now I have spare parts! I can’t blame etrailer for UPS’S poor handling.
Went together easily just follow video
Craig - 11/13/2022Only going to give a 3 star only because the box it came in was in bad shape all taped up one part was missing had to go to a fabrication shop and have one made , I didn’t contact etrailer because I new if they did replace it it would take probably a week to get it I wanted to install it now not worth the trouble. Products look good
Delivery was OK, product is great! Easy to install all the help you need from the installation booklet to videos online. Excited to try it out on my 5th wheel.
Parts shipped quick, and everything fit perfect.
Installation was pretty easy. Have not had the camper hooked up yet but am excited to see how these air springs help
Very good product. Instructions were good; the video is also a very good supplement to aid installation.
Great technical support. They answered all my questions I had. Response was clear and concise. Quick shipment! I will continue to use etrailer for future products
Returned for the 7500 series. Great pro duct.
Easy install, everything fits well.
Incredibly quick and I very much appreciate that. The only comment I have is the list of shops to install equipment should have XXX in X Mi. They do a great job and stand behind thier work.
Great company to do business with. I highly recommend them.
ETRAILER WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL IN HELPING ME DECIDE WHICH AIR LIFT KIT WAS RIGHT FOR MY TRUCK 2021 F250 4X4. I ORDERED ON A TUESDAY AND IT ARRIVED ON THURSDAY BY THE TIME I GOT HOME FROM MY TRIP. THE INSTRUCTIONS WERE SIMPLE AND I INSTALLED IT IN ONE DAY. EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT AND I AM SATISFIED.
