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 XD air springs add up to 7,500 lbs of rear axle support, keeping your Ram 2500 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 fifth wheel or moving a serious payload.
Every load is different. That's why Pacbrake gives you adjustable air pressure control between 5 and 100 psi. Need full strength for a heavy fifth wheel? 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.
Extreme hauling demands extreme durability. Alpha XD 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 mean losing a whole weekend. The precision laser-cut brackets are designed to bolt cleanly to your Ram's existing mounting points without welding or drilling your frame. Just smart engineering that fits the way it should which is perfect for the DIY-er. With high-quality fittings, pre-bent brackets, and mounting hardware included, you'll be back on the road with a stronger, steadier truck 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 XD 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.

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Pacbrake Alpha XD rear axle, double-convoluted airbag suspension kit. Now this kit has been designed for your 2014 and newer RAM 2500, both the two and four-wheel drive models. And I do wanna let you know that this will not fit factory air suspension models, and it may not fit some RAM 2500 Power Wagon applications. So on custom fit parts such as this kit, I do recommend taking advantage of 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 will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.
So when the load gets heavy, your truck is going to need more than just those factory rear springs hanging on for dear life. These airbags are gonna give you up to 7,500 pounds of rear axle support, keeping your truck level and steady even when the trailer is loaded, the bed is packed, and the miles are long. So no more rear-end sag throwing off your braking or steering, or your headlights pointing up into the sky. Now, every haul is different, that's why these air springs are gonna give you full control over the ride height and firmness with the adjustable air pressure from 5 to 100 PSI. So if you're hauling a fifth-wheel or a full bed of gravel, you're gonna be able to easily crank up the pressure, and then when you're unloaded and you're heading home, you can drop that pressure back down for a softer ride.
With the manual inflation valves included along with the air line, you're gonna be able to tune your suspension for the day's work. It's gonna be very easy and very straightforward. Now, extreme hauling demands extreme durability. These springs are built with one-inch thick, corrosion-resistant end caps. You're not gonna be able to see that presently just because I do have these kind of loosely assembled to give you an idea of what this is going to look like when you install these.
The end caps are gonna be underneath these roll plates- But along with the end caps, these bags are reinforced with 20 internal support wires, giving you maximum strength under a heavy load. Now, these heavy-duty roll plates are here to protect the bags from chafing, and extend the lifespan of the bags. And then these have powder-coated, custom fit steel brackets that are gonna fight against rust, road salt, and rough seasons. So if it's a bitter cold or scorching heat, or mud-slicked job sites, this kit is made to outlast whatever you experience going down the road. Now going back to these brackets, these are custom fit, they're laser-cut brackets, and these are designed to bolt cleanly to your truck's existing mounting points without welding or drilling to your frame, with the included hardware, as you can see here.
And I just wanna mention, I'm really impressed with the quality that Pacbrake provides with this system. The powder coat on these brackets are premium. The materials that the airbags and the rest of the hardware is composed of is very premium, in my opinion, compared to some other suspension kits that I've seen from other manufacturers. So if you're looking for a premium setup, this is really going to be the way to go. This kit is designed to work with your setup today and wherever your upgrades are gonna take you tomorrow. And again, I mentioned that this has a load leveling support up to 7,500 pounds. But I do wanna let make you aware of the fact that air springs do not actually increase your truck's weight carrying capacity. So you wanna make sure that you're not exceeding your manufacturer's recommended weight limit. Now, if you do decide to pick this kit up, we would love to hear back from you regarding your experience with installation and operation, and so you can let us know by dropping a comment or leaving a review on this product page.
