Specs:
So you've lowered your truck, and it looks fantastic. However, you realize that your load capacity and suspension travel have deteriorated in the process. You're bottoming out more, and your ride simply isn't as comfortable as it could be. With SlamAir you can have the great look of a lowered truck while maintaining beefed-up suspension. You get a smooth, safe ride and prevent bottoming out. Now your vehicle will be as strong as it was when you drove it off the dealer's lot.
Enhancing your lowered truck's suspension with SlamAir provides your vehicle with up to 2,000 pounds of load-leveling capacity. SlamAir can accommodate most trucks with a 5- to 6-inch drop, as well as those with flipped axles and notched frames. The air springs themselves are adjustable from 5 to 100 psi, ensuring that you achieve the exact pressure levels that you need for any activity. And the springs can be inflated independently of one another for front-to-rear and side-to-side leveling.
SlamAir comes with manual inflation valves that are typically mounted on the bumper but can be installed anywhere on your vehicle for easy access. For even more convenience and control, you can add a compressor and gauge system (sold separately), which will let you monitor and automatically inflate your air springs.
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.
The SlamAir kit includes easy-to-use air line fittings, springs, brackets, air line tubing, inflation valves and all necessary hardware. SlamAir also comes with a limited lifetime warranty with no mileage restrictions.

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at these Air Lift SlamAir air helper springs for your lowered trucks. Lowered trucks do have a weakened the load capacity and a reduced suspension travel. So these are going to help beef up your suspension, helps you improve your ride comfort, prevent your truck from bottoming out, and increase your overall safety. These are designed specifically for the 1988 through 2000 Chevrolet and GMC C/K series 2,500 and 3,500 pickups with the Bell Tech C-Notched Frame and a 5" to 6" drop. So if you've got a C/K series, 2,500 or 3,500 with that 5-6" inch drop and that Bell Tech C-Notched Frame, these are going to help provide your truck with up to 2,000 pounds of suspension support.
That's the load leveling capacity. Now when you hear that, it's tempting to think that that means it's going to increase your truck's carrying capacity, that's really not what that's saying. It's not so much like a second set of hands that's helping you lift more weight. Think of it more like a back brace. So it's there to help support your truck's suspension.
It's gonna help reduce the strain on your OEM suspension. So that's going to help your suspension last longer and give you a lot more stability. So this is going to install between your vehicle's frame and the leaf springs. And this will allow you to manually adjust the air pressure to get the load evenly distributed and to help give you extra support. So typically, you'll install these with the air lines valve, mounted on the bumper of your truck so that you can easily access them.
These will adjust between five PSI up to 100 PSI so you can level your vehicle front to rear. They are also independent, so you can inflate them differently from one side to the other for your side to side leveling of off-centered loads. So if you've got something really heavy on one side of your truck, you can put more air in that bag to give it the support that it needs. Basically, these are going to help keep your vehicle level. When you're hauling heavy load, it's gonna help improve your steering and braking performance by bringing in that front end back down.
You're not gonna have to worry about your headlights aiming up off the road into oncoming traffic. That's also gonna help keep your tires from wearing on evenly. And it's also going to help diminish sway and help prevent that bottom out. Like I said, just being in between your frame and your leaf springs, it's going to provide a little bit of resistance there to make sure that it's going to not bottom out. So everything that you're gonna need to get these installed is included, including instructions to walk you through that process. So very, very simple system to add on to the truck to make sure that you're getting the benefits that improved ride comfort and overall safety. This is made here in the USA. So you can trust it is gonna be a good quality and it does come with a limited lifetime warranty. So if you we're to have any problems with it, you're more than welcome to reach out to us here at etrailer.com. We're always happy to work with our customers. So if you we're to have any problems, you're more than welcome to reach out. So that's gonna complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Review from a similar SlamAir in Vehicle Suspension
It was very easy to install especially since I already had a C-Notch done in the back with an axle flip. With this added on I no longer band the axle against the bottom of the bed floor.
