Video Transcript for Review of Pacbrake Vehicle Suspension - Alpha HD Pro Rear Axle Air Bag Kit Jounce Stainless - PB85SV

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Pacbrake Alpha HD Pro Rear Axle Air Bag Suspension Kit with internal jounce bumpers and stainless steel hardware. Now, it is important before you order this to use our vehicle fitguide here at etrailer. Just enter the year, make, and model of your vehicle, and our fitguide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. So as you no doubt know, when the load gets heavy, your truck is going to need more than just the factory rear springs hanging on for dear life.

These airbags are gonna give you up to 5,000 pounds of rear axle support. That's gonna help keep your truck level and steady when your trailer is loaded or your bed is packed and the miles are long. So, no more rear end sagging is going to be throwing off your braking and steering or your headlights pointing to the sky. This is going to help prevent all of that. Now, as you know, bottoming out doesn't just feel rough.

It can actually wreck your airbags. That's why this system includes jounce bumpers inside of each bag, as you can see on that example cutaway there on your screen. So even with no air pressure, your suspension has a built-in safety net. You're going to be able to safely run at zero PSI when unloaded, which means no harsh rebound, just that smooth factory style ride. So, this kit includes stainless steel braided airlines, which are going to be more durable and resistant to wear compared to those standard rubber lines.

You're also going to get stainless steel roll plates that you see here. It's going to help protect the airbags along with the Schrader valves, so you're going to be able to easily inflate or adjust the air pressure using a standard air source. On your screen, I'm showing you everything that you're gonna get. This is just going to automatically come with the standard hardware as you can see there on the top, but this also does include that stainless steel upgrade kit and you see that, parts laid out there on the bottom, so this is what you're going to be getting. So, the stainless steel components are going to be a big upgrade because they're built to last in harsh conditions.

Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion much better than the standard material, so it's also going to be stronger and less prone to damage, so you're going to be less likely to deal with leaks or wear over time. But every haul is different. That's why these air springs are gonna give you full control over ride height and firmness with adjustable air pressure from 5 to 100 PSI. So, for instance, if you're hauling a fifth wheel or a full bed of gravel, you'll just crank up the pressure. When you're unloaded and heading home, you'll just drop that pressure back down for a softer ride. So with the manual inflation valves included, tuning your suspension for the day's work's going to be very easy. These springs are built with one-inch thick corrosion-resistant end caps. They are reinforced with 20 internal support wires for maximum strength under load. The mounting brackets are precision laser cut and they are powder coated, so they're designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's existing mounting points without welding or drilling to your frame. Now again, this is going to give you 5,000 pounds of load leveling support, but be aware that air springs do not actually increase your truck's weight carrying capacity, so you do want to make sure that you're not exceeding your manufacturer's recommended weight limits.
