Question:

Hey I have a 2016 ram 1500 with a 6” lift with coils in the rear and will be installing air lift 5000 Ultimate plus bags. Now I’m pretty sure I need the 4” spacers but do I get the angled or straight ones? And how yo figure that out

Expert Reply:

You will need to get under your 2016 Ram 1500 with a 6” lift and look at the upper mounting bracket where the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers item # AL88365 attaches. If this bracket is angled, like the attached picture, you will need the Air Lift Angled Universal Air Spring Spacers item # AL49GV. If this bracket is flat then you will need the Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers item # AL52440. You will need a 4" spacer since 6" lifts typically only add 4" to the height of the suspension.
