When the load gets heavy, your truck shouldn't feel like it's fighting you. These air bags help you stay level, drive steady, and stay in control so you can tow with confidence and handle heavy loads without second-guessing your suspension.
When the load gets heavy, your truck needs more than just rear springs hanging on for dear life. Alpha HD air springs add up to 5,000 lbs of rear axle support, keeping your Ford Super Duty level, steady, and confident even when the trailer is loaded, the bed is packed, and the miles are long. No more rear-end sag throwing off your braking and steering, or headlights pointing into the sky. With air bag support underneath, you keep control of your ride, your cargo, and your peace of mind even when you're towing a travel trailer or moving a serious payload.
Every load is different. That's why Alpha HD air bags provide adjustable air pressure control between 5 and 100 psi. Need full strength for a heavy trailer? Pump it up. Dropping off the trailer and heading home light? Drop the pressure for a smoother ride. Simple manual inflation lets you adjust your suspension without the guesswork, so your truck feels balanced and comfortable whether you're packed to the gills or just running light errands.
Heavy hauling demands extreme durability. Alpha HD springs are built with one-inch thick, corrosion-resistant end caps and reinforced with 20 internal support wires for maximum strength under load. Heavy-duty roll plates protect the bags from chafing and extend lifespan. Powder-coated steel brackets fight back against rust, road salt, and rough seasons. If it's bitter cold, scorching heat, or mud-slicked job sites, this system is made to outlast whatever the road dishes out, mile after mile, load after load.
Adding serious load support shouldn't cost you a whole weekend. Precision laser-cut brackets bolt directly to your Super Duty's existing mounting points—no welding or frame drilling required. It's just smart engineering that fits the way it should, perfect for the DIY-er. Manual valves can be installed through license plate fastener holes or another location of your choice (which may require drilling). With high-quality fittings, pre-bent brackets, and all mounting hardware included, you'll be back on the road with a stronger, steadier truck in just a few hours—no trip to the fab shop needed.
This kit is designed to work with your setup today and wherever your upgrades take you tomorrow. You can inflate manually with standard air valves right out of the box, no extra parts needed. Already have an onboard compressor? The Alpha HD system connects easily to most existing setups. Planning for an in-cab wireless controller down the road? No problem. The foundation is already built in, making it easy to expand your control options when you're ready.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we take a look at the Pacbrake Alpha HD Airbag Suspension Kit for your rear axle, has a 5,000 pound load leveling capacity. Now this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2011 to 2016 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-452 2-wheel drive super duty trucks. Now this is for all trucks, including those with fifth wheel hitches. It is not for commercial cabin chassis trucks and being a custom fit part, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, putting your year and model vehicle.
It'll show if this will work through your application. Now these airbags here are gonna help you stay level, drive steady, and stay in control when you're hauling heavy loads. This kit will include everything laid out here on the table, includes the air springs for the rear axle, the upper and lower roll plates, the precision laser cut, powder coated steel mounting brackets. As you can see laid out here is the grade five plated hardware, does come with the air lines with the inflation valves. On the very top, we've installed the push to connect fittings that your air lines will connect to, and it does come with some installation instructions that'll describe how this all goes together.
Basically, when the trailers loaded and the bed's full, your truck's gonna need more than just stock rear springs to stay level and in control. That's where the Alpha HD air springs will come into play. They're gonna add up to 5,000 pounds of rear axle support, helping your truck stay steady and secure through every haul. So whether you're pulling a fifth wheel, hauling materials, or towing equipment, this upgrade's gonna keep you from sagging, squatting, and struggling for control. And also, one load isn't like the next.
That's why this Pacbrakes gonna give you freedom to adjust the air pressure from five to 100 PSI. Basically, if you need full support for a loaded trailer, just pump it up. Or if you unload it, heading home, drop the pressure for a smoother ride. So basically, with the simple manual inflation right out of the box, you're gonna get better ride quality and confidence no matter how much you're hauling. And you can start with the simple manual inflation and then expand your system later with onboard air or wireless controls.
This Alpha HD system is designed to scale with your setup, making future upgrades easy without redoing the foundation. Now, I did wanna zoom in and show you this isn't just any light duty gear. These Alpha HD springs are built with one inch thick end caps. They use 20 internal wires in the spring to handle extreme loads without giving in. They do use corrosion-resistant parts. The roll plates we mentioned, the upper and lower roll plates, they are added for protection of the spring. And the powder coated brackets ensure that the system's gonna hold up through road salt, rain, mud, and even over time. Now, we mentioned the precision laser cut mounting brackets. They're designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's factory mounting points without any welding or drilling of your frame. Now these air springs will not increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity, so you do wanna make sure not to exceed the manufacturer's recommended weight limit. But that's gonna do it for a look at the Pacbrake Alpha HD Airbag Suspension Kit for your rear axle.
They need instructions to be more clear but fit very nicely i would recommend pacebrake
Going camping!!!
The product is a great product. After installation was completed and the air added to the air suspension, it raised the rear end of the van about 2-3 inches.A very nice improvement.
Installation instructions definitely need better quality diagrams.
