Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 was designed with an exact purpose: to provide full-time, first-class support to your 3/4-ton or 1-ton pickup, motor home, or commercial truck. With this kit, you get a safer ride and simultaneously protect your vehicle from the strain that comes with hauling massive loads.


Carrying heavy cargo in your truck bed or trailer puts tremendous stress on your vehicle. Your brakes erode faster, your tires wear unevenly, and handling suffers severely. When towing, you might also experience excessive sway, bottoming out, and even improper and unsafe headlight aim. Fortunately, there is a solution to these problems. By pairing your existing suspension with the LoadLifter 5000, you can seriously beef up your suspension, ensure equal load distribution, and give your vehicle the support it desperately needs. Air Lift's LoadLifter 5000 provides up to 5,000 lbs of load-leveling capacity and distributes the weight of your payload to all 4 wheels. As a result, the stress on your OEM suspension is significantly reduced.


LoadLifter's air bags are adjustable from 5 to 100 psi for precise support, and they can be inflated independently of one another for front-to-rear and side-to-side leveling. They are made of high-quality, 2-ply, fabric-reinforced rubber. Most air bags lose air at the ends, where the bag is enclosed with a steel cap, because the steel can rust and corrode over time, creating small holes. The endcaps on Air Lift air bags are fashioned from corrosion-proof Zytel nylon, a material that is both stronger and lighter than steel, ensuring that the air bags won't lose air. Also, LoadLifter 5000 comes with Air Lift's exclusive roll plates, which both protect your air springs and beef up the load capacity of the springs.


This system installs with the included brackets and hardware. Just mount the springs, inflate them, and ride. To inflate the LoadLifter springs, you just have to pump air in through the inflation valves. A line kit is included with the springs so that you can install the valves (one for each spring) in an easily accessible area - typically they are installed on the bumper. If you want to make the springs even easier to use, you can get a compressor and gauge system (sold separately).


Air Lift kits are designed to keep your vehicle at normal ride height. You can find the normal ride height of your vehicle by unloading it and measuring the distance between the bottom edge of your wheel well and the center of the hub. After you find and record this distance, you can regulate the amount of air that you put into your air springs to maintain normal ride height - even when you are hauling a heavy load. You will need to adjust the air pressure in your air bags according to the size of your load.


Along with a lifetime warranty that has no mileage restrictions, Air Lift offers a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. Just install and use LoadLifter 5000 springs for 60 days, and if you are not satisfied at the end of this time, you can remove them from your vehicle and return them for a full product refund. Now that's confidence.

  • High Capacity Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Brake Controller for 2018 Ford Transit T350
    The highest capacity trailer hitch for your 2018 Ford Transit T350 is the Curt Class IV part # C14012 which has an 8,000 lb trailer towing capacity without WD and then 10,000 with WD. You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # HM11140244. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement For 2017 Ford Transit T350
    There is a fit for your 2017 Ford Transit T350, but the # AL88213 is not a fit. The kit that is confirmed to fit your T350 is the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL57213. This kit has the same functions as the other kit you referenced, but it does not have the internal jounce springs. This won't be an issue as long as you keep the 5 psi minimum pressure that both systems suggest and don't completely bottom out your factory suspension simultaneously. This is...

  • Air Lift Air Helper Springs and Compressor System For a 2021 Ford Transit T350
    There is no concern with the square notches in the Air Lift Kits # AL57213 & # AL88213 on the round axle of your 2021 Ford Transit T350. The thickness of the steel is thick enough they will not damage each other. Personally I prefer the Kit # AL88213 as it includes internal jounce bumpers. The factory jounce bumpers are removed to install the air springs. Having them installed in the air springs will help reduce bouncing also while loaded. I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor...

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement Option for a 2017 Ford Transit T350 Dually
    I do have a rear suspension enhancement option that will work with your 2017 Ford Transit T350 but as you mentioned, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57213 will not work on models equipped with dual rear wheels. For a similar type of suspension enhancement that will fit your T350 with dual rear wheels, I recommend using the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System part # TFRTR350HD. The Timbren Suspension Enhancement System will act as a buffer between your frame and...

  • Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Spring with Internal Jounce Bumpers Compared to Without
    The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs, # AL57213 and the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers, # AL88213 are the two confirmed options for the 2015 Ford Transit T250. The added advantage is simply to combine the adjustability of air springs with the reliability of jounce-style springs. I recommend that you always maintain at least 5 psi on the system.

  • Air Bag Helper Springs for a 2015 Ford Transit T350 Van
    I double checked with Air Lift and kit # AL57213 is a confirmed fit on your 2015 Ford Transit 350 van. We haven't had customers provide reviews yet for this particular vehicle and air bag combination but I can tell you that Air Lift air bags have high review scores because they do make a quality product and have excellent customer support. Not to mention the product has a lifetime warranty! If you want to be able to add/remove air from the air bags from the comfort of the vehicle I recommend...

  • Air Bag Kit Recommendation for 2016 Ford Transit T350
    For the 2016 Ford T350 we have the Air Lift kit part # AL57213 as a confirmed fit which would work well. For a compressor kit we then have the Kit part # AL25592 which would work well too.

  • Air Bag Helper Springs for a 2015 Ford Transit T350
    Air bags are the way to go to soften up the ride of your 2015 Ford Transit T350. As long as your model is NOT a 350HD then you can use # AL57213. If it is an HD model this kit will not fit. To be able to add or remove air as needed from the air bags from the comfort of the vehicle cab I recommend compressor system # AL25592. The other suspension enhancement products are going to make the ride stiffer which is not what you want. The only other option would be to replace the stock suspension...
