Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 was designed with an exact purpose: to provide full-time, first-class support to your 3/4- or 1-ton pickup, motor home, or commercial truck. 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 pounds of load-leveling capacity and distributes the weight of your payload to all four 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, two-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.

  • Air Bag Kit for Truck with Lift and Rails 2002 Ford F-250
    All of the air bag kits we offer for your truck are designed to mount to the OEM leaf spring setup on some level so if the lift kit you have relocated the leaf springs I don't believe anything we offer could be confirmed as a fit.

  • Recommended Air Bag System for a 1996 Ford F-250 w/ a B&W Hitch
    No you can't, but I have an air bag system that will. For your 1996 Ford F-250 with an in bed hitch, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL57298. This system is compatible with your B&W hitch and has a 5,000 lbs load leveling capacity. This kit does require drilling but it and item # AL88298 are the only options available for your truck that are compatible with in bed hitches and they both involve drilling.

  • Highest Rated Firestone Air Springs For A 1995 Ford F-350
    Per Firestone's fitguide, the heaviest rated Firestone Red Label airbags compatible with your 1995 Ford F-350 are the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2071. These airbags are rated for 4,800lbs and require a distance from the outside of the truck frame to the inside of the tire of at least 7-1/2". You can get an extra 200lbs of capacity with the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57298.

  • Axle Conversion Kit for a 2020 Salem Hemisphere Elite 34 RL
    Based on the information you have provided me I recommend a conversion kit that moves your axles from above your leaf springs to below. This will raise the height of your trailer by the diameter of the axle and the thickness of the leaf spring pack. You should be able to get right around 3"-3 1/2" of lift depending on the diameter of your 2020 Salem Hemisphere Elite Fifth Wheel's axles. If your trailer has 3" diameter axles you will need the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion...

    This particular Air Lift LoadLifter kit you'd looked at, part # AL57298 can indeed be installed to the factory overload spring using the shorter U-bolts provided with the installation hardware. The lower air spring bracket would install as shown in the provided diagram. In addition to the air spring kit, you might consider an on-board compressor system like # F2158. A compressor system will let you add or remove air pressure from the system while you're on the fly without needing to exit...

  • Do Air Lift Air Bags Fit 1996 Ford F-350 With B&W Gooseneck
    Yes they do; your 1996 Ford F-150 with a B&W gooseneck is indeed compatible with the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57298. The linked instructions of the Air Lift # AL57298 include applications for an in-bed hitch. While the instructions say "5th wheel" they will be exactly the same for a gooseneck.

    There are Air Lift Air Helper Springs which will work for your 2004 Ford F-250, although part # AL57298 is designed only to be used if your truck had a Reese fifth wheel hitch installed. What you need is either the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57393 is your '04 F-250 is 2WD or # AL57390 if your F-250 is 4WD.

  • Are Replacement Bracket Parts Available For Air Springs On A 2001 Ford F-350
    To be completely honest it's unbelievably more expensive to part together everything you need versus just purchasing new air spring kit, which would have everything needed for installation. The 5318 part number you provided didn't come back to an Air Lift part number but did come back as a Firestone bellow part number 1T17BB2. Both Air Lift and Firestone have also made it much harder to get replacement brackets because they want you to purchase all new kits and have their warranty. I...

  • Air Lift or Helper Spring Recommendation for a 2000 Ford F-250 Super Duty Towing a Camper Trailer
    The product that will work best for you will depend on how you will be using your truck and why you are looking for a suspension enhancement system. If you are looking to level your truck because you do a lot of hauling with varying load weights and tow the trailer occasionally then the air bags would work well. I would recommend using the Air Lift LoadLifter air springs, # AL57298, for 2 wheel drive or, # AL57390 for 4 wheel drive models of the 2000 F250. I recommend these air bags systems...

  • Air bag Helper Springs for a 1995 Minnie Winnie Winnebago on a Ford Van Chassis
    The first thing needed is to determine if the chassis is really on a Ford F-350 truck chassis, E-350 van chassis, or Ford F-53 motorhome chassis. The F-53 chassis is for Class A motorhomes so it would not be correct. And there are so few RVs built on the F-350 truck chassis that it likely isn't that either. From what I could find they were built on the E-series van chassis based on the parts catalogs and other information from Winnebago. For that chassis you can use Firestone air bags...

  • Fit and Compatibility of Fifth Wheel with Air Lift 5000 Load Lifters on a 2001 Ford F-250 Super Duty
    Depending on which part number your Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 is will determine if the RV store is correct or not. AirLift made special kits to work in combination with the 5th wheels. # AL57393 will fit with fifth wheel and gooseneck hitch. # AL57298 will fit with a Reese fifth wheel # RP30869 you were looking at and the # RP30035 installation kit. # AL57291 will fit on trucks with a B&W fifth wheel hitch 1105 or 1199R.

  • 2018 Ford Raptor Suspension Enhancement Recommendation
    We actually don't have air bag suspension enhancement that fits your 2018 Ford F-150 Raptor (couldn't find any other places that do either), but we do have adjustable suspension enhancement that will work really well for what you are wanting. For that you'd want the part # RAS3611 which gives you up to 2,000 of additional support, isn't harsh like some options are, improves handling, and is adjustable by changing the spring tension. This would definitely be your best option!

  • Air Lift Air Helper Spring Fit for 1995 Ford F250 4x4
    If you don't have a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch, and the distance from the inside of your tire and the frame is 8 inches or more, the # AL88215 Air Lift helper spring kit will fit your 1995 Ford F250 4x4 perfectly. If you currently have a 5th wheel hitch or will install one in the future, the AirLift # AL57298 is compatible with Reese 5th wheel frame brackets only. You might also be interested in an on-board compressor kit like # AL25856, which would allow you to add or remove pressure...

    I have another option for you, but the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL57298 you were looking at will not fit your 1990 Ford F-250 with the Curt Gooseneck hitch installed. One option is the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers - Rear Axle # AL88298 which are confirmed to fit your truck, but you will likely need to drill a few holes in the mounting bracket of your Curt Gooseneck hitch which would void the warranty...

  • Will Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Bolt on to 2006 GMC Sierra 3500 with No Drilling
    The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Springs, part # AL57298, you referenced are for Ford trucks from the early 1970's to the mid-2000's. So they won't fit your 2006 GMC Sierra 3500 at all. Instead you want part # AL57275 which is the version of the LoadLifter 5000 springs that do fit your truck. And they do bolt on without much drilling. I've linked a video of the kit being installed on a 2005 Silverado which will be a similar process as your truck.

The # RP30035 includes the frame brackets, bed rails and all necessary mounting hardware. . Whether or not it would be compatible with your air springs will depend on the manufacturer and part number of the system you're using. If your system is a Firestone # F2550 or an Air Lift # AL57298 or # AL57393, the fifth wheel install kit won't interfere. Generally speaking,...

This kit will fit the 2WD models only. If you can tell me what type of hitch you have in your truck, I can check the compatibility with this kit.

It works with your existing leaf spring suspension system. The brackets attach to the hangers and supply new, lower mounting point for springs, which results in a taller ride height. This will give you up to a 2 1/4" lift and is the only option available without removing your old hangers and attaching new ones...

  • Should 1996 Ford F-250 Overload Springs Be Removed for Air Lift Air Bag Installation
    Installing the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs, like part # AL57298, on your 1996 Ford F-250 doesn't require the removal of your overload springs unless the air bag kit produces a harsher ride quality. Since this step is labeled as an "if-then" step it wouldn't be a bad thing to just remove the spring entirely right from the start - just note in the instructions how it mentions naturally running the air bags at higher psi ratings as a result of this.
