5,000-lb Capacity. When the load gets heavy, your truck shouldn't feel like it's fighting you. These air bags help you stay level and 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 truck steady 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 even when you're towing a travel trailer or moving a serious payload.
Every load is different, and this system adjusts to match. Alpha HD air springs let you fine-tune ride height and firmness with air pressure from 5 to 100 psi. When carrying heavy weight, add air to level your suspension and maintain steady handling. Running without a load? Drop to the minimum pressure for a smoother, more compliant ride without stiffness or bounce. Manual inflation valves are included, so tuning your setup for each trip is straightforward and dependable.
Air bags are only as strong as their weakest link. That's why Alpha HD bags are reinforced from end to end with heavy-duty end caps, 20 internal support wires, and powder-coated steel brackets. Add corrosion-resistant hardware and thick roll plates, and you've got gear that holds up to real-world hauling through heat, cold, salt, and slop.
Adding serious load support shouldn't mean losing a whole weekend. The precision laser-cut brackets are designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's existing mounting points with minimal drilling. Just smart engineering that fits the way it should, which is perfect for the DIYer. Manual valves mount through license plate fastener holes or a location of your choosing (which may require drilling). With high-quality fittings, pre-bent brackets, and mounting hardware included, you'll be back on the road in just a few hours without a trip to the fab shop.
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 [email protected]. Today we're gonna take a look at the pack brake Alpha HD airbag suspension kit for your rear axle. It has a 5,000 pound load leveling capacity. Now this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2015 and newer Ford Transit T-150, T-250, and the T-350 cargo and passenger vans, either two wheel drive or four wheel drive. One note is it will not fit the E transit models.
And on a custom fit part like this, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle, that'll show if this will work for your application. Now the factory suspension can struggle under rear world loads. So if you're delivering cargo, towing a trailer, or building out a full van conversion, these Alpha HD air springs are gonna help add up to 5,000 pounds of rear support, helping keep your transit van level, and composed when the weight adds up. So there's no more dragging rear end, sloppy cornering, or headlight clear that'll blind oncoming traffic. Just gonna give you a stronger stance, more predictable handling, and peace of mind behind the wheel.
Now the kit will include everything I have laid out here on the table. It'll include the air springs for the rear axle, the upper and lower roll plates, the precision laser cut, powder coated steel mounting brackets, the grade five plated hardware. Over here, the airlines with the inflation valves. Up at the top, we've installed the push-to-connect fittings that your airlines connect to, and a nice set of installation instructions that'll describe how this all goes together. Now our cargo run doesn't ride the same as a weekend trip, and your suspension should reflect that.
So with air pressure adjustability from five to a hundred PSI, you can fine tune the support based on how much gear you're hauling. So you can drop the pressure when you're running light, for a lot smoother ride, or you can pump it up when the van's packed full. The manual inflation helps keep it very simple, effective, and easy to manage on your own terms. And also from long haul deliveries to off grid trails, your van is gonna see more perfect pavement, and this system is built for it. Now, one thing I do wanna mention, we're gonna zoom in here, and mention these air springs themselves.
These are sort of unique. They do offer a one inch thick corrosion resistant end cap on each spring, and the spring itself is reinforced with 20 internal support wires for maximum strength under load. The heavy duty roll plates, upper and lower roll plates, they'll protect the air springs from any chafing and extend the lifespan. The brackets are powder coated steel brackets. They'll fight back against rust, road salt and rough seasons. And if it's bitter, cold scorching heat, or mud slick trails, this system is made to outlast whatever the road dishes out mile after mile, load after load. Now this kit is designed with the do-it-yourselfer in mind. The precision brackets, the mounting brackets we mentioned are designed to bolt to existing mounting points with no drilling, and all components come pre-cut, ready to install. The manual inflation valves on the airlines right here we mentioned, these are designed to mount easily to the rear bumper or your license plate bracket, and there is no complicated wiring or air tools required for installation, just a straightforward upgrade that you can knock out in a few hours. Also, if whether you're keeping it simple, or planning a full onboard air system, this kit will work with your setup if you do that, using the manual inflation valves right outta the box, or you can tie into an existing compressor when you're ready. If you are planning to add a wireless in-cab control later, it is compatible with that too. So basically, as your van evolves, your suspension should be ready to grow with it. One thing I do wanna mention, these air springs will not increase your vehicle's weight carrying capacity, so you wanna make sure not to exceed the manufacturer's recommended weight limit. But that's gonna do it for a look at the PAC Brake Alpha HD Airbag Suspension kit for your rear axle.
