AIr bag/lift system for pick up

Lew Silverman · 05-08-2011, 07:52 AM

I bought the Airlift 5000 system to replace the overload springs on my dually R20 Suburban because I needed more adjustability. Once the leafs are cranked up the ride is terrible when the trailer isn't hooked up. There are a few brackets that need to be cut from the frame for clearance so I'll be installing them later this month. They also recommend that some pressure (5 psi) be kept in the bags at all times, even when unloaded, to prevent them from chafing.

Good luck with your installation!
