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 protect your vehicle from the strain that comes with hauling massive loads.


Levels Your Load

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 inaccurate 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.


The LoadLifter 5000 kit will help 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 send to your air springs to maintain normal ride height - even when you are hauling a heavy load. Simply adjust the air pressure in your air bags according to the size of your load.


Adjustable and Durable Air Springs

LoadLifter's air bags are adjustable from 5 to 100 psi for precise support, and they can be inflated equally for front-to-back leveling or independently of one another for 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.


Easy Installation

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 manual inflation valves (1 for each spring). These are typically mounted on the bumper but can be installed anywhere on your vehicle in an easily accessible area. If you want to make the springs even easier to use, you can get a compressor and gauge system (sold separately).


Lifetime Warranty

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.

    You're already on the right track with everything you looked at. Your 2018 Thor ACE 30.3 has a GVWR of 18,000 lbs so I recommend the following: -Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer w/ Custom Brackets for Class A Motorhomes # RM33RR -Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-1/2" Diameter # RM-1139-146 -Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar - 1-3/4" Diameter # RM-1139-148 If you want to add air bags you can using the # AL88240 for the front and # AL57344 for the rear.

  • Should Front or Rear Air Bags Be Added to a 2015/2016 Thor Motorhome
    Hey James, thanks for reaching out! The Front # AL88240 and Rear # AL57344 air spring kits for a 2015 Ford F-53 chassis will install in a similar fashion but we don't have any videos for the rear air bag kit like you mentioned. If I was in your case I would definitely install the rear bags as well. We actually recommend adding suspension enhancements to the rear axles before adding stuff to the front axles as you'll see a bigger improvement in performance. You can add them to both, but...

  • Air Bag Suspension Enhancement Kit that Fits 2019 Winnebago Class A F-53 Chassis
    Hey David, so we have the Air Lift kit part # AL57344 that fits your 2019 Winnebago Class A motorhome that is built on a F-53 chassis. This fits as long as the GVWR is NOT 24 or 26k so you would need to verify that. This is only option we have though.

  • Will Air Lift Air Bag Kit Fit with Timbren Kit on a 2019 Fleetwood Southwind 35K
    Hey Patrick, thanks for reaching out! The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57344 will fit with the Timbrens on your 2019 Fleetwood Southwind 35K as long as they are located in the same location as what you saw in that video. Since these air bags install above the leaf springs, they won't interfere with your rear trac bar either. Let me know if you have any other questions!

  • Will LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs Fit on a 2018 Ford F-53 Chassis for Jayco 31V
    Yes, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57344 are confirmed to fit your 2018 Ford F-53 chassis with the 18K GVWR. I also recommend installing the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System # AL25980 because it allows you to monitor and adjust the air bags from the comfort of your Jayco 31V and with the hand-held remote you don't have to run air lines to your cabin like you would with an analog gauge.

    The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57344 are in fact a fit for your 2018 Ford F-53 chassis with a GVWR of 22,000 lbs. These will include everything you will need to make the installation happen with the exception of the tools of course and a few extra zip ties. These will really give you quite the improvement in the handling and ride of your motorhome.

  • What Do I Do With The Factory Jounce When Installing Air Lift AL57344 On A 2012 Ford F-53?
    The factory jounce bumpers will not be reinstalled when installing the Air Lift # AL57344 on a 2012 F-53 Newmar Baystar. So there really is no need to save the factory jounce. Sometimes if there is a bolt holding the factory jounce on you will want to keep the bolt. The only reason to keep the factory jounce would be if you ever needed to remove the air bags for some reason.

    For your 2021 Coachmen Encore on the Ford F-53 22,000lb Chassis we have the Air Lift Front # AL88240 and Rear # AL57344 air bag helper springs. I recommend installing the Air Lift Load Controller Compressor System # AL25856 to control the air pressure inside the front and rear air springs. This kit allows you to set the air pressure to the front differently than the rear to help dial in you ride quality.

I can also confirm that the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs item # AL88240 you referenced also fit the 31V model. Since you're planning on running two separate air bag systems you will need a dual path air compressor. I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System item # AL74000EZ....

  • What Does Air Lift Kit Capacity for Ford F-53 Motorhome Indicate
    The Air Lift kit part # AL57344 that fits your 2019 Ford F-53 has a capacity of 5,000 lbs and that might be a confusing figure. What it is supposed to indicate is that it can provide up to an additional 5,000 lbs of suspension support. So your RV won't overload them.

    There are air springs that fit your 2015 Ford F-53 2WD motorhome, but they are different than the kit you mentioned. The springs that do fit are the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57344. Keep in mind these will fit your motorhome so long as it does NOT have a GVWR of 24,000 lbs or 26,000 lbs. If your motorhome has a 24,000 lb or 26,000 lb GVWR then the suspension upgrade you need is the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-183-54-1. Please note, the SumoSprings...

  • Suspension Enhancement to Improve Ride Quality of 2017 Thor Windsport 29M
    You might begin by reviewing the acceptable range of inflation for the tires on your coach as well as examining the existing suspension to ensure it's in good shape. If that all checks out, I'd recommend going with an air ride suspension from Air Lift. An air ride system like # AL57344 for the rear axle and # AL88240 for the front axle would allow you to adjust the firmness of the ride until its perfect for your needs. An onboard dual-path compressor system like # AL25856 would allow you...

That said, they both mount outside of the frame in the same spot so you would not be able to use both. Normally, I tend to like air bags better because of their adjustability but for applications like this where you pretty much have the same load every time, I recommend the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper...

  • Do I Need Limiting Straps To Use Air Lift Air Bags AL57344 with Leveling System on Motorhome
    In regards to the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57344, you'll still be able to raise the rear of the motorhome for leveling but if you're doing so for service and the rear axle would be suspended, then you would want to unbolt either the upper or lower bracket.

To make inflating and maintaining air pressure in the bags I would also highly recommend a dual path compressor kit which will allow you to keep the front and rear bags inflated to separate pressures. For that you'd want the heavy duty kit part # AL25856 and you'd be set.

My technical sheet specifies the only exclusion being 4WD vehicles with a 24,000 or 26,000 GVWR. From my research, your Fleetwood Bounder has a GVWR of 22,000 lbs so if you can confirm that, this kit is fully compatible and a great choice to upgrade your OEM suspension.

  • Air Helper Springs vs SumoSprings for 2017 Jayco Alante Class A Motorhome
    Air helper springs have their advantages and disadvantages. You can adjust the pressure in the system according to the load, but the weight of a motorhome won't vary much so you wouldn't really benefit from that adjustability. In my opinion you'd be better off using a system like the SumoSprings part # SSF-170-40-2. The system will provide up to 2600 lbs which is plenty to cover the tongue weight of the trailer you're pulling. The benefit of this system is that they're maintenance free,...

This will give you the support you need and even can allow you to easily tailor the amount of support you get on either side of the motorhome to level it side to side.
