LoadLifter 5000
Fully adjustable, LoadLifter 5000 kits have real air muscle, and
keep your vehicle riding level and comfortable with no load,
loaded, or towing on any road condition. Air Lift's toughest air
helper springs, they have up to 5,000 pounds of leveling
capacity, right up to the manufacturer's recommended Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating, and are air adjustable from 5 to 100 PSI.
Rugged and durable, the superior 2-ply fabric reinforced air
springs are built like a tire. Ultra high-strength Zytel nylon
end caps â strong as steel, but less heavy, and corrosion proof
â complete the air springs. Your kit will also include Air
Lift's exclusive upper and lower roll plates that increase load
capacity by 10 percent and protect the air spring from sharp
edges such as brackets, etc. All kits are engineered to be easy
to install and come with a fully illustrated instruction manual.
Why Air?
Factory suspensions must compromise between ride comfort and
load hauling capacity. Soft factory suspensions can't carry heavy
loads, and heavy steel springs ride rough, especially when the
vehicle is unloaded. Only air springs can support your heavy
loads and provide a great ride. Air Lift adjustable air springs
solve these common problems by allowing you to tune your
suspension under all load and road conditions. Just add air when
towing or hauling and then remove air for a softer ride when
unloaded.
Eliminate these common load and towing problems for good when
you use Air Lift air springs:
Sag â Proper weight distribution to all tires improves
steering, braking and tire wear. This is especially important
while towing: adjust the air springs to accept the tongue weight
of the trailer or other heavy loads.
Headlight â Only level and stable vehicles provide safe
and proper headlight ing â critical for night driving
safety.
Rough ride â Air Lift's progressive spring rate soaks up
bumps, keeping tires on the road for better handling.
Bottoming out â Air Lift springs restore normal ride height
when heavily loaded or towing, reducing suspension wear and
eliminating cing on bumps.
Sway and body roll â Air springs increase spring rate and
vastly improve vehicle stability. When towing trailers, the air
springs permit precise vehicle height adjustment for exact
alignment, reducing trailer sway. Less roll and sway means a
safer and more comfortable ride.
Porpoising â Even heavy pickups which don't squat when loaded
can begin to "porpoise" vertically when towing heavy trailers.
Progressive rate air springs dramatically reduce this problem for
a safer, more comfortable ride.
Suggested Accessories

advanced in the industry and work with all brands of air springs.
