Features to know about

Stay Level When the Load Gets Heavy: Up to 1,000 lbs of Rear Support

When the back end starts to sag under a heavy load, these Air Lift 1000 air springs step in with up to 1,000 lbs of load-leveling support. They fit inside the existing rear coil springs to keep your ride height steady, steering responsive, and braking consistent. With the suspension leveled out, tire wear evens out and headlight aim stays right where it should be—even with a full load or trailer behind you.

Dial In the Ride You Want: Adjustable from 5 psi to 35 psi

Every haul rides different, and that’s where the adjustable air pressure comes through. You can fine-tune each spring between 5 psi and 35 psi for the perfect balance of comfort and support. Inflate both evenly for straight-line towing or adjust them separately when you’re carrying an off-center load. Manual Schrader valves let you set it up just how you like, or you can add an optional compressor system later for in-cab control.

Smooth Out the Road: Polyurethane Air Springs That Absorb the Shock

Rough roads and uneven loads don’t have to mean a harsh ride. The molded polyurethane construction cushions bumps and reduces sway so your vehicle feels stable and controlled. The system works with your factory suspension, helping it handle heavy loads without bottoming out or bouncing all over the place. It’s a simple way to make long hauls and daily drives feel more composed.

Install It Yourself and Get Back on the Road

This kit includes two air springs, heat shields, tubing, Schrader valves, and hardware—everything needed for a straightforward install inside your rear coil springs. It fits up neatly with standard tools, no complicated brackets or drilling into bump stops required. Once it’s in, adjusting your suspension for different loads becomes as easy as adding or releasing air through the valves mounted where you choose.

Installation went well. Had to unbolt track bar(TJ has 2" above spring lift kit installed) I'm not as fast as I use to be!
They are doing good at leveling the TJ up with the extra weight.
Hope they last a long time, only time will tell.

So far so good. My 03 Jeep Wrangler TJ was sagging in the rear. Now it is level. Needed this for the extra load carrying capacity when using a motorcycle carrier to carry my Suzuki VanVan on the back of the Jeep. This nicely raised the hitch by 6 inches so I don't have to worry about dragging the carrier when encountering a dip. Shipping was prompt and fast. Could not be more pleased with the customer service from etrailer.

Great solution to keep rear end of 98 Jeep Wrangler from sagging due to tongue weight of boat trailer. Installed them myself following directions provided. Recommend them to anyone needing additional support for vehicle with coil springs.

Yes indeed, the AL60811 kit will fit on the rear of your 1998 Wrangler Sahara. If you will need to adjust the bags frequently a compressor kit may be advantageous. If you off-road with your Jeep, a system with a reserve tank may come in handy for other applications. Check out AL25592 or AL25572.

On the Chrysler vehicles, the stop just pulls out of the cup and is not reinstalled. There is not need for a bump stop once the airbags are in place. They will fulfill that role as well as suplememnt the coil springs.

It drives much less ‘mushy’ and handling is a dream. These are simple to install, perfect product for pulling with a light duty SUV, I am extremely impressed.

Word of advice: It was WAY easier to just remove the coil springs and install the bags that way. (2016-2020 Kia Sorento)

Lift the rear end, remove wheel, disconnect the lower control arm, shock, and sway bar link. Take out the coil spring and insert the bag from the top. Reassemble in reverse order and torque bolts to spec. Much easier.

From that point it was just a matter of routing the air lines through the control arms, up through the subframe, over the spare tire, to the trailer hitch mount. Bags seem to hold air well and are holding up so far. Definitely made an improvement in handling around corners.

Note: There is a noticeable squeaking/noise from the rear end going over bumps at low speeds. Once you're on the pavement or up to speed it improves.

Loses one star for the noise and install. Otherwise not a bad product for the price, especially if you're the DIY type. I personally work on cars, so maybe it was a little easier for me.

I have towed my RV several times over the last year and these helper springs work perfectly! I had a very small air leak but I added some silicone at the airline connections and it is 100 percent! I carry a battery powered air compressor with me and it’s basically a “set it and forget it” systems.

Works great on my 2000 Lexus LX470. I installed these to supplement my AHC deleted suspension. These were installed with Land Cruiser rear springs. Instructions were easy to follow. Routed separate air lines (did not use the y connector) above the frame and fitted the valves into existing holes on the bumper. Run them at 8-10 psi when I have gear in cargo area. Holds air perfectly.

Glad they are working well for you, Scott! I gotta ask, did you do the AHC delete as it was worn our or did you just not particularly like it? I've heard people do this for either reason.

@LazerS The AHC system was great when working optimally but mine was wearing out. The globes were starting to fail, both rear hydraulic shocks were weeping, and the ride was getting firm over small road imperfections. I decided to do the AHC delete for cost effectiveness, reliability, and possible future suspension upgrades.

These air springs are one of the best investments you can make if you have a 4XE Wrangler. The battery pack is so heavy, I am finding after a couple of years the factory springs are getting too spongy and the body lean is more noticeable on the road especially cornering. Plus when you go over larger bumps the body sway is much more noticeable. I looked into an air spring set up but did not really want to spend several thousand dollars and I was surprised when I came across this set for under $[XX]. I was sceptical but thought, why not. They arrived in a small box and I was even more doubtful but when I opened it and took out the kit, I was impressed with the quality of the materials. I followed the instructions (with a few exceptions) and found them to be very easy to install. If you take your time with routing the air lines over the factory heat shields and carefully bring them to the rear drivers side, you can install them using the t connector. You can drill a hole through the thin part of the bumper right beside the license plate. There is just enough air line included to do this. The Schrader valve seats perfectly and makes it very convenient to add or bleed air from the system with only one adjustment. I set the springs at 12 psi and coupled with my after market adjustable shocks, I can make my Wrangler so smooth it feels more like a European SUV than a Jeep. Excellent product.

The air springs are still operating as well as the day I installed them. They do not leak any air pressure nor have they degraded in any way. What a great and simple solution that lasts.

I knew going into this, this was going to be a pain to install. After 5 hours, I had to call a friend who was a mechanic to come over and help get the bags into the springs. We finally read enough reviews where people said to heat up the bags a little, fold them and zip tie them. This worked! But.....Here we are, they've been installed, traveled over 2000 miles with them in and let me tell you, the noise! OMG THE NOISE! Every bump, dip, hell - I think just for the fun of it - my car squeaks like a 1970's Cadi! I've used multiple Teflon lubricants, Bearings Grease and other various lubricants. NO, I didn't use WD40. You can hear me coming down the road the noise is that loud. I called Airlift as instructed and they advised me that they're not even showing that these are a match for my car although Etrailer does. The tech that I spoke to told me that if I've driven that much, with and without loads, adjusted the PSI (which I have. I've gone from 5-35psi as instructed. No matter where I am sitting, it is loud! For someone who is tone sensitive with high PTSD and ADHD/OCD - this is not working. Airlift said that there's a 60 day ride approval. I don't approve as I've gotten to the point that I don't even want to drive my 2025 car! Instead, I've been driving a 2005 van if I need to go to the store or anything. I've truly tried to let these be the savior of my needs, but I think I'm going to just bite the bullet and get a Gladiator or Ram.

Well, after going back and forth - basically it comes down to - 60 day drive warranty doesnt compute. So after spending $300 on install, now Im expected to spend another $300-$400 to have them removed to return them, oh and pay for return. So roughly $800 to get back $130. Ill chalk this up to understanding that if a product doesnt work out in any manner. To remove these, you have to take the rearend of the car off - shocks and springs - then try to get the bags out of a much smaller ending without damaging otherwise youll not refund. Basically no support, other than a were sorry.

@DonnieM Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're very sorry to hear how frustrating this has been for you, especially after the time, effort, and additional expense you invested into the installation. I do want to clarify that these Air Lift air bags are confirmed to fit your vehicle application, this has been confirmed through Air Lift. However, we completely understand that while a product may be compatible with a vehicle, that doesn't necessarily mean it will meet expectations in terms of ride quality, noise levels, or overall satisfaction. While I realize that doesn't change your experience, I do want to sincerely apologize that these air bags have not delivered the results you were expecting. We appreciate your feedback and the detailed information you've provided. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and I'm sorry this solution did not work out the way you had hoped.

2015 Honda Odyssey
After installing I was very happy with the performance of the Air Lift kit.
A few notes I will highlight to help with install:
-When using the template, the hole is closer to the inside of the center of the van.
-Use a Step Drill bit to cut the hole in the lower control arm. I got mine from HF.
-Route the air hoses thru the lower control arms and zip tie them up along the rear subframe
-I sprayed with air bags with Lithium grease to keep any noises from occurring
-3d printed a bracket to hold the fittings on my rear hitch
