2,100-lb Capacity. Upgrade your vehicle's rear coil spring suspension with this kit. Molded polyurethane air springs fit inside your existing coil springs for added support when hauling heavy loads. Improves handling, braking, and overall ride.

Specs:
Heavy loads can cause the back of your vehicle to sag and add unnecessary stress to your suspension. This stress not only affects your brakes in a bad way, but your tires, headlight aim and handling suffer as well. To improve your vehicle's ability to endure heavy loads, you need to add support to your existing coil springs.
Air Lift's AirLift 1000HD adjustable air springs have 2,100 pounds of load-leveling capacity and are made specifically to fit inside your rear coil spring suspension for additional load assistance. You can inflate and deflate these tough, molded polyurethane helper springs as needed, ensuring the perfect amount of support for every load, every time. Easily level your vehicle front to rear, and if you run dual air lines to the air springs at installation, then you can inflate the springs independently of one another for side-to-side leveling. AirLift 1000HD is a breeze to install with standard tools and comes with an easy-to-follow instruction manual.
AirLift 1000HD 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.
Air Lift is positive that you will benefit from their air spring suspension system - so much so that they offer a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. Install and use AirLift 1000HD 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.

This product has leveled my 2014 Ram 1500 under any load from my camper to my pipe top trailer with farm equipment and even put 1500 pounds over the axel and it just sat level. I just keep a consistent 40 pounds in there and they work great!!
Christopher - 04/24/2022The bags seems great so far, Ive only done trailer set up with a short tow so far but almost no rear end sag with my 18' toyhauler. My reduction to 4 stars is the install instructions. You need to soak the bags in hot water to make a correct hotdog bun shape. Also, for me, finger tight on the bag air line connection wasn't sufficient, the connections kept backing off from vibration during driving. I needed teflon tape and little extra "snug" with some channelocks.
A little bit of buyers remorse, Not overly impressed, in hindsight I should have got one of the better airbag systems. This particular set up with the bag inside the spring doesn’t “lift” the rear end to correct squat after a trailers Tongue weight is added, but it will stiffin the springs to only reduce squat - it must be set prior to imposing a load- on my 2017 Ram 1500. My trailer tongue weight it’s about 700 pounds
Install tip: The zip tie trick some guys are using online videos is legit and works
Galen - 03/13/2021Product was well made, great instructions, but not very easy to install. I’ve worked on trucks my entire life (over 45 yrs) and this took way longer than it should have. Getting the bellows inside the coils was tough. Then the tubing was very difficult to get onto fittings. I give it 4 stars because of the quality parts, installation aspect gets 1 Star.
Andrew - 04/30/2021They did a good job of keeping my Ram 1500 level when towing, but they were VERY tough to install. Took my wife and I a lot of effort to squeeze the thick rubber into the coil. Doesn't affect performance or my rating, just know that if you buy these.
80 year old installed in 6 hours including leak check, follow instructions take inner fender wells a must.
I have truck with slide in camper. These are necessary and work great
Very good product. I installed then on my 2019 Ram 1500 for assistance when pulling a 7k pound trailer. The handling was improved - Our first trip was about 5k miles roundtrip. I highly recommend.
Raymond S - 03/25/2021Easy to install works very well just need a little extra support when towing heavy loads. 12/2019 1200 mile trip 2019 ram. 1500 1000 pounds in the bed and towed 7000 pound trailer no problems.
Your products are always top notch. The one time I needed customer service the company, Malone, were amazingly helpful. Always shop etrailer for my suff. Thank You
After a year and still working great!
Arrived in good shape fast shipping, soon the weather is good I will install, but was very happy with the same ones I put on my other Ram
Great air lift system for my 2015 Ram 1500. Improved towing load leveling and ride. Had these on a previous vehicle years ago and they worked great then too. I would recommend to anyone wanting to improve ride and handling when heavily loaded.
Lloyd W - 10/16/2020Air bags work well. Kept they trailer with load level. Also helped with sway. Instalation was a bit of a pain. Instructions would be better off tell installer to remove springs to put in. Other than that good product.
These things really help level my truck and trailer out. The installation was a little difficult but definitely doable. I would definitely by these again for another truck if required.
Well worth the investment . Easy to install as long as you remove the fender well. Changed my confidence level towing my 26' travel trailer 2019 Ram 1500.
So far very pleased with removing the sag. Hardest part of installation was rolling the bags into hot dog buns and zip tying them then wrestling them through the gap in the coil spring. I used all PTC fittings and not the barbed hose fittings supplied. I ordered PTC T fitting from E-trailer and others separately from other sources although I think they are buried somewhere in the depths of the e-trailer website. Firestone sells them under their brand name. Other tips like spraying the bags and springs down with soapy water BEFORE sliding in through the springs helped a bunch. Remove the plastic wheel wells and spare tire to make installation easier. Also, covered all my air lines with wire loom to protect it from abrasion.
Arrived 3 days early. Just as great as the last air lift system I ordered!
Etrailer was amazing...got exactly what I ordered and it was delivered by the said date...will definitely do business again. Thank you
They worked 100% as advanced
Doug G - 01/10/2022Got them on Tuesday, Installed them on Wednesday. I had trouble installing them per instructions. I removed the coiled springs to install them. More work but easier installation. Haven't pulled the boat or camper yet.
Product was not easy to put in. But with a little patience and knowledge it went smoothly.
If your truck will take the Firestone Airbag I recommend those but if you have a half ton Ram with coil springs these are the ticket. They made it so I could comfortably hook up a trailer with 720# tongue weight. I had 5 inches of drop in the back before and after adding the in spring air back I only had about one inch drop. Power was not a problem just handling. In my opinion these are your best option since the regular air bags will not work.
The only hard part was figuring what model would fit my truck and installing the bags. I did not remove the spring to install them. I squashed them between the coils. It was kind of hard to do but I did not have the tools to remove the springs to install them.
I found it easier to go ahead and pull the spring out and put the bag in from the top.To pull the spring out can be done by removing bottom shock bolts, no spring compressor needed. I tested the bags with a ton, they worked very well.
