Video Transcript for Review of Pacbrake Vehicle Suspension - Alpha HD Pro Rear Axle Air Bag Kit Jounce Bumpers - PB25RV

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Pacbrake Alpha HD Pro rear axle double convoluted airbag suspension kit with internal jounce bumpers. Now, this kit has been designed to fit your 2020 and newer Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500s with either the two-wheel or four-wheel drive models. And I also listed some other bits of information that will prove helpful for you. For the AT4 and the Trail Boss models, you should use the model number that you see there on your screen. That comes with the required two-inch spacer.

And then, this is gonna be for all trucks, including those with the OEM fifth wheel prep package. Do note that this will not fit the cabin chassis models and this will not fit vehicles with aftermarket CURT fifth wheel packages. All that to say, on custom-fit parts such as this kit, it is vital that you use our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com. Simply input the year, make, and model of your vehicle, and our fit guide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now, heavy trailers and full beds and gear piled high, that all changes how your truck handles.

So without the ride support, you're gonna feel that immediately, whether it's sagging in the rear or poor handling and a ride that can get possibly unpredictable very fast. This airbag system is going to put you back in control with up to 5,000 pounds of load leveling support's gonna help reduce that squat, it's gonna improve steering response, and it's gonna keep your truck stable when that weight stacks up. Now, bottoming out just doesn't feel rough, it can actually wreck those airbags. So that's why this system includes internal jounce bumpers that you see there on your screen in that cutaway there. These bumpers are inside each bag, so even with no air pressure, your suspension has a built-in safety net.

You're gonna be able to safely run at zero PSI when unloaded, which means no harsh rebound, just a smooth factory-style ride. But as you know, every haul is different. That's why these springs give you full control over your ride height and firmness with adjustable air pressure from five to 100 PSI. So if you're hauling a fifth wheel or a full bit of gravel, you'll just crank up the pressure and then when you're unloaded and heading home, you can just drop that pressure back down for a softer ride. With these manual inflation valves included tuning your suspension for the day's work, it's gonna be very easy and straightforward.

Now, these bags are reinforced all the way with heavy duty end caps that you can't see because they do have them kind of loosely snuggled here. But we also have these heavy duty roll plates that are going to protect those airbags. There's also 20 internal support wires inside of the bag that are going to add to the durability of the bags themselves. You're gonna have powder-coated steel brackets, and then the hardware itself is also going to be corrosion-resistant. I don't have all the hardware laid out on my table here, but I do have a photo here, showing you everything that's going to be included. So everything here is designed to hold up to real-world hauling through all types of seasons, all types of road conditions, and these precision laser-cut brackets, they're custom-fit. They are designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's existing mounting points. And so, everything that is going to come with this kit is going to get you up and running and all you need to supply are the tools. And then I also wanted to point out that this kit is designed to work with your setup as it sits now or wherever your upgrades may take you down the road. So again, you're gonna be able to manually inflate these bags with the standard air valves right out of the box, no extra parts needed, but maybe you already have an onboard compressor. If so, that's great. This system is going to connect easily to most existing setups. And if you're planning for something in the future like an in-cab wireless controller, that's not gonna be an issue either, because basically, what you're doing with this system is, you're laying the foundation for upgrades down the road. So this is gonna grow with you. So again, this is gonna give you up to 5,000 pounds of load leveling support, but please be aware of the fact that this does not actually increase your truck's weight carrying capacity. So you wanna make sure that you're not exceeding your manufacturer's recommended weight limits. If you do pick this system up, we would love to hear back from you regarding how the installation went and how you're using these and how they're working out for you.
