Automatic Pressure Sensor

Low air pressure is the leading cause of air spring failure. To avoid this, you must either regularly monitor your air springs or find a device that will do that for you. Air Lift's Load Controller does just that. If the air pressure in your air springs falls below the minimum safe level of 5 psi, the system's low-pressure sensor detects the decrease in air pressure. Then the compressor activates automatically to adjust pressure as needed. If your particular application requires you to maintain a minimum of 10 psi in your air springs, you can also set the system to activate when the air pressure is below 10 psi.


Stylish, Compact Gauge

Air Lift gauge for controlling air spring pressure

Load Controller comes equipped with a sleek-looking, compact gauge that provides detailed monitoring of your air pressure. The space-saving gauge can be mounted in whichever way works best for you. Just attach it to your dash using the included mounting pod. Or for a from-the-factory look, install the gauge using any custom pillar or dash pod (not included) with a 2-1/8 inch pre-cut hole.


Face of gauge with push-button controls

Built into the face of this gauge is a one-touch, push-button control that allows you to inflate or deflate your air springs while monitoring their psi.


Dual-Path System

Load Controller is made to help support your air springs as they take on weighty loads, and it's great for heavy-duty and commercial applications. The dual-path controller lets you adjust two air springs independently of each other for better control. So aside from leveling your vehicle front to back, you can also level it side to side by putting a different amount of air into each spring. This allows you to even out an off-center load.


Alternatively, you can use the Load Controller to adjust and monitor two pairs of air springs independently. Using this configuration, you can inflate your front pair of springs to a different pressure than your rear springs. This will allow you to level your vehicle front to back.


Determining Ride Height

Load Controller will help 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 send to your air springs to maintain normal ride height - even when you are hauling a heavy load.

etrailer customer service is the best! And they have quality products. I have purchased towing systems from etrailer in the past and always found them to be of high quality. They deliver their products very quickly.

This latest purchase of air helper springs was damaged in shipment. When it arrived, the box was torn, covered in tape, and 3 of the 4 large steel brackets were missing. Roger of etrailer was extremely helpful, and quickly sent me replacement brackets. These just arrived today (and the package was intact!).

It will take me a while to get the system installed on my truck, and I will write another review when I have the system working.

The airbag suspension and controller system work great. I have a 2017 RAM 3500 dually and I built the control system into the dash. There are cubbies under the floor in the back seat and I mounted the compressor and valves into one. The system keeps the truck level and stable even with our heavy camper loaded. I would definitely recommend this system if your truck needs a little extra spring in its step.



by:

Overall the system works very well. Installation was a breeze and everything needed was included. I like being able to adjust each spring individually and how easy the dual gauge is easy to read.

Unfortunately, my original dual gauge leaked air internally and I had to order a replacement because it would bleed off overnight. I went with a replacement that is the same as the original because I like how it functions better than the other options on the market. I hope that the new one does not begin leaking as well.

UPDATE! The replacement gauge has been working flawlessly. I’m super pleased with this setup! It keeps me level and stable while pulling my 5th wheel.

@Rusty We're glad it's working well for you!

The Air Lift controller works as promised. The folks at etrailer were great at getting the unit to me when they were in short supply.

The air compressor is still working great over a year later.

I prefer speaking with someone when I order parts for my truck so when I say that ordering was effortless, smooth and easy then it was. Also delivery was on point.



by:

We purchased an AirLift to add to our 2015 Ford F-250 4X4 when we purchased a new (to us) Montana 3160 Legacy 5th wheel trailer. The air bag system helped with the rear droop that we were experiencing and helped level out our ride. While towing now, we are experiencing a much smoother ride. This package was well worth the investment.

Great, no issues, product works well.



by:

Shipped and received quickly, pretty easy install and my 2500 no longer squats under my 24k gooseneck



by:

Excellent product! The instructions to DIY are self explanatory and easy to understand. You just have to have common sense and the want to. My passenger side air bag was leaking by and I messaged Air Lift's warranty department. Within two days they responded and sent out a new bag without any questions asked. As long as you have proof of purchase and explain your problem in depth and troubleshooting you should have no problems.



by:

Works great



by:

It's a nice kit and works as advertised. For heavy hauling an airbag kit is really nice. I've installed several now for friends. My f350 srw longbed had drive line vibration off the line when towing heavy loads. With the air bag kit I can maintain the normal drive line angle and that got rid of the nasty vibration.



by:

E trailer was great fast shipping. The Kit was fairly easy, I installed it on f250 2012 4x4. My Ford has outfitter switches on it and it took long to reseach where outfitter leads and colors to the switches than it did to install. The Air lift controller lifts and lowers fairly quickly . I give this product and the company 5 stars.



by:

Added the compressor system to Firestone Ride-Rite airbags on a small RV with a 2018 Ford Transit 350HD chassis. System was easy to mount and works great. Hardest part was deciding where to mount the gauge.



by:

The customer service was not good, the airbags that I ordered were showing in stock and when I ordered them my order shipped minus the bags. Called to find out the status of them and nobody could give me an answer, they had a bad attitude when I asked them the status and assured me they would call me back. 2 weeks went by without a response, I called back again with the same result, they told me that they couldn’t get ahold of the manufacturer. I hung up the phone and called the manufacturer myself and got a status update that the bags wouldn’t be in stock for months. I had to cancel my order and reorder the smaller bags, they assured me that they would ship immediately as they were in stock, took 2 additional weeks to get them. Absolutely horrible experience…



by:

My purchasing process was perfect. Emily was so helpful and very knowledgeable about everything. It was my pleasure dealing with her. And I'll spread the good word. Kudos Emily

Either of these options are custom fit for your vehicle and are compatible with in-bed hitches in case you will be using them with a gooseneck or 5th wheel. I also recommend using a...

    I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs part # AL88231 for the 2019 Ram 3500 4x4. Using air helper springs will give you a better more comfortable ride while towing compared to jounce style dense rubber springs that do not cushion road shock at all. The Air Lift springs are also designed to eliminate the likelihood of puncturing the bag because they are a roll plate on top and bottom of the spring.

The Air Lift LoadLifter air spring design includes two roll plates one at each end of the air bag to avoid moving parts or flying debris damaging the bags while traveling.

  • Can Air Lift LoadLifter 500 AL88288 Be Installed On 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 W/ A 6" Lift?
    Yes the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers - Rear Axle # AL88288 you were looking at for your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ with a 6" Lift. You will just need to add a lift spacer. Since a 6" lift does not always mean 6" of suspension lift you will need to measure from the bottom of the air helper spring once it is installed in the upper bracket to the bottom of the lower bracket. You will need either 6" Spacer # AL52460 or 4" Spacer...
