Is Spacer Needed for 1 inch Body Lift with Air Lift Suspension Kit on 2013 Ford F-150
Published 11/03/2016 >
Question:
ok so i have a 1inch lift block in the rear added on top my factory 4x4 block. Will i have to have a different bracket or can this air bag compensate for the added 1inch gap.

Expert Reply:
Sounds like you have a 1 inch body lift on your truck. If this is the case our Air Lift kit part # AL57200 would fit without needing a lift spacer. If you happened to have a suspension lift you most likely would not need a spacer block either. Air Lift actually does not make a spacer block in a 1 inch increment anyway.
In general with suspension lifts you have to use a spacer block since the distance between the frame and axle is increased. Since body lifts don't add anything there spacer blocks aren't needed.
