    • LoadLifter 5000 springs will not increase your vehicle's weight-carrying capacity. Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended weight limit.

Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 springs provide full-time, first-class support for your truck. With this kit, you get a safer ride and simultaneously protect your vehicle from the strain that comes with constantly hauling heavy 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.

  • Rear Air Bags for 2018 GMC Sierra Denali with MagneRide and 6-1/2 Foot Bed
    I checked with both Air Lift and Firestone and the only rear air spring suspension upgrade available that is compatible with the MagneRide suspension on your 2018 GMC Sierra Denali with the 6-1/2 foot bed is the Air Lift Ride Control # AL59565. My contact at Air Lift verified that this will work perfectly on your truck and its 2,000 pound load-leveling support will do a really nice job of maintaining a comfortable and level ride when towing a trailer, hauling a heavy load in the bed, or...

  • Difference Between Timbren And SuperSprings Suspension Stabilizer For 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD
    So the difference between the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TGMRCK15S and SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA28 are the benefits they offer and what you are looking to get out of an enhancement system. The Timbrens # TGMRCK15S are jounce springs and how they work is simple but effective. When you have additional weight at the rear of your truck, like when towing, it will sag, causing the front of the truck to rise. This causes your front...

  • Air Suspension for 5th Wheel Towing with a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 4X4
    The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2430 are not compatible with an in-bed hitch like what you have for 5th wheel towing with your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 4X4, but I do have some other air suspension solutions from Air Lift for you. If you occasionally tow your 5th wheel with your GMC Sierra then you need the kit # AL57204 for a bed shorter than 8' (won't fit with a B&W 5th wheel hitch ) or kit # AL57211 for an 8' bed. If you tow your 5th wheel pretty often then you need kit # AL88204...

  • Will Airbags Work with a Gooseneck Hitch on a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
    I do have an airbag kit and gooseneck hitch that will work with one another on your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 but the Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs part # AL59565 is not compatible with an in-bed hitch. Instead you will want to use a different set of airbags that will allow for the use of a gooseneck hitch like the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57204 for 5-1/2' and 6-1/2' beds or part # AL57211 for 8' beds. The above LoadLifter 5000 system will then...

  • Air Bag System Compatible With a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali With Magnetic Ride
    The Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Springs # AL59565 will fit your 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with the magnetic ride system. It is compatible with both 2wd and 4wd trucks and with the 5-1/2' or 6-1/2' bed lengths. If you have an 8' bed there is currently no air bags that will fit your Denali. These air springs provide up to 2,000lbs of support to your factory suspension system. Do remember that these will not increase your payload or towing capacity. The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor...

  • Recommended Air Lift Suspension Enhancement for 2015 Silverado 1500 with 4-1/2 Inch Lift
    For your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57204 if you do not have an 8 foot bed. For an 8 foot bed, you will instead use # AL57211. These will provide your Silverado with up to 5,000 pounds of load-leveling support and help to reduce strain on its rear suspension. You can manually adjust the air pressure in order to get an even load distribution. Each spring can be inflated independently for side-to-side leveling of off-center...

  • SumoSprings or Air Bags for a 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD
    Between SumoSprings and Air Bags, I recommend going with a set of Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 air bags. They offer better all around support and are adjustable. There are two options for your truck depending on what length bed you have. Both options are compatible with in bed hitches and work with 4WD trucks. With 8' Bed - Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL57211 Without 8' Bed - Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL57204 These springs have a 5,000 lbs...

  • Does Air Lift Compressor System Include Helper Springs For 2013 Chevy Silverado
    The Air Lift Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL25850 you were looking at does not include the helper springs. Since you have a 2013 Chevrolet Silverado you will need one of the following options: Air Lift # AL57204 if you have a 1500 that does NOT have the 8' bed, the # AL57211 if you have a 1500 with a 8' bed, or the # AL88338 if you have a 2500/3500.

  • Firestone or Air Lift Air Bag Kit for 2014 GMC Sierra 1500
    Both the Firestone # F2460 and the Air Lift # AL57211 are made in the USA and have limited lifetime warranties. What we have found is that the Firestone air bags are made to a higher quality due to a higher ply rating and a better attachment between the bag and the plate with the inflation valve.

  • 2018 Silverado 1500 5.3L Trailer Towing Capacity
    The trailer towing capacity for your 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 depends on the specific combination of features the truck has and on the type of trailer. These features include the engine, of course, but the towing capacity also depends on the drivetrain (2WD or 4WD), the transmission, cab style, bed length and rear axle gear ratio. All of these things affect towing capacity. The owner's manual for the truck lists starting on page 302 all of the combinations of features and the resulting...

  • Do Air Helper Springs Increase Truck's Payload Capacity
    Air helper spring kits like # AL57204 for the short bed or # AL57211 for the long bed provide up to 5000 lbs of support, but WILL NOT increase the payload capacity of the truck. None of the suspension enhancement products we offer will increase the truck's weight carrying capacity, they'll only provide leveling.

  • Recommended B&W Gooseneck Hitch and Air Springs Compatible with 2014 GMC Sierra 1500
    The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit needed for your 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 will depend on the bed size. The B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1007 will fit 8 foot bed and the # BWGNRK1057 will fit a 6-1/2 foot bed. With either hitch option, there are bed size specific air spring options. For a 6-1/2 foot bed, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57204 and for an 8 foot bed I recommend # AL57211. With these options drilling...

  • Are Air Bag Capacities Total or Per Side for 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500
    That's a good question, and the air bag capacity is the total capacity and not per side. Having said that, the capacity is just designed to help support the tongue weight - the weight on the rear axle of your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 - so air bags rated at 7,500 lbs on your truck would definitely be overkill, which is why the ones that fit your Chevy are only rated for up to 5,000 lbs. I really like the Air Lift air bags for your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500, as they are a high-quality air...

  • Best Air Bags For 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 Towing Camper Trailer
    Hi David, The hitch weight for a 7,000 lb camper trailer is still going to be well within the range of 5,000 lb air bags, which is the only load capacity available for your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500. For air bags the best option for your Silverado are the Air Lift, as those have the most durable hardware and roll plates on the top and bottom of the bags which gives them added protection. Just keep in mind the correct option for your '15 Silverado 1500 will depend on your bed size. - Bed...

  • Will Firestone Ride-Rite Air Bags Fit a 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali
    Firestone Ride-Rite air bags # F2445 are not a fit for your 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali but there are other options. If you have a short bed Sierra then you could use # AL57204. For a long bed use # AL57211. These show no exclusions for Denali models.

  • Can An Air Lift Air Bag Kit Be Swapped From A Ford F-150 To A GMC Sierra 1500?
    Between the Air Lift # AL57228 you had on your F-150 and the two similar options for a 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 ( # AL57211 for an 8 foot bed and # AL57204 for a short bed), there are a lot more differences than just the top and bottom plates. The bags, roll plates, fittings, and air lines will all be the same, but that's basically it. With that said, unfortunately, we do not have just these plates currently available. I highly recommend replacing the entire unit with the one that is designed...

  • Are There Brackets For Firestone F2320 on 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500
    So the kit you have, the Sport-Rite # F2320 are not going to work on your 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500. Those Sport-Rite springs are for the previous generation and body style of Silverado (the truck underwent a style and generation change in 2007), and are a tapered shape, which is much different than the double-convoluted style of current air bag systems. Firestone does not have a bracket kit for Sport-Rite springs on a 2016 Silverado 1500 so unfortunately there just isn't going a way...

    We do have air bag kits for your 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 that don't use the U-Bolts like you see with the Firestone Air Bag Kit # F2430 that you referenced. Air Lift is actually another popular air bag kit manufacturer and they have part # AL57204 if you have a short bed or part # AL57211 if you have the 8' long bed. These install in the same location as the Firestone kit, have a weight rating of 5,000 lbs, and do not require drilling in the frame unless you have a 5th wheel or gooseneck...

    For your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4WD that has a B&W gooseneck hitch installed the compatible rear axle air bag kits I suggest are AirLift # AL57204 for the short bed or # AL57211 for the long bed. I confirmed compatibility with my technical contact at AirLift. With either kit I suggest you consider adding an on-board compressor. Being able to air up the bags while you're driving (instead of you having to pull over to fill them) makes it much easier to find the ideal pressure for...
