Expert Answers about Chevrolet Lift Supports


  • What is the Difference Between Lift and Support Capacity on a Trailer Jack
  • The support capacity is how much a jack can hold whereas the lift capacity is how much a jack can lift. The Bulldog Square Jack w/ Footplate part # BD190754 has a 8,000 lb support and 5,000 lb lift capacity. If you will be using the jacks to lift and lower a trailer onto a hitch ball or kingpin then they will need to be chosen according to their lift capacity but if you are just using them to stabilizer or support a trailer then they can be chosen according to their support capacity.

  • Will Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs Fit 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 with Lift Kit
  • The Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Air Helper Springs # AL57595 will fit about a 1" block lift on their own. If you have a lift higher than that for your 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 then you need to add some spacers to accommodate your lift. Spacers are offered in a 2" # AL52420 and 4" # AL52440 option depending on how much of a lift you have. These can support up to 7,500 lbs so if you are towing a 14,000 lb trailer you will have support for the first 7,500 lbs. Please note that suspension enhancement...

  • Do The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs Need Disconnected Before Lifting On Vehicle Lift?
  • The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2245 for your 2003 Toyota Tundra are safe to use with a vehicle lift. You will not need to support the axle or disconnect the air springs to use on a lift. Firestone uses a wire girdle and roll crimps their air springs to the mounting plates which are capable of supporting the weight of the axle hanging when put on a vehicle lift.

  • Can Trailer Stabilizer Scissor Jacks be Used to Lift a Trailer
  • Scissor jacks for trailers such as # TJSCHD-24 are used for support but not lifting applications. For lifting I recommend using a bottle jack such as # ALL620471 and then using a stabilizer jack to support the trailer at the proper height. Bottle jacks are great since they don't take up a lot of space and still have plenty of capacity.

  • Can Air Lift Air Bags on 2020 Ram 2500 be Used When on Vehicle Hoise
  • Your 2020 Ram 2500 can have the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers # AL88289 installed and the vehicle can be on a hoist without the rear axle braced if it is a short term amount of work like a tire rotation, as you mentioned. Otherwise, what is meant by brace is the axle should be supported with jack stands. There are certainly jack stands tall enough that may garages have, and they need to be used if lengthy work is being done and you have...

  • Suspension Support For 2011 Jeep Wrangler With A 4” lift That Tows And Off Roads
  • The Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs - Rear Item # AL60817 are designed for factory suspension. With the vehicle raised, the bag is not going to support anything. I recommend the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs for Coil Spring Suspension - Rear Axle Item # CSS-1195R. These have no maintenance and can be used both for hauling and off road.

  • Scissor Jack Stabilizer Jack Compatible with 8,000 lbs
  • Scissor jacks are stabilizing jacks and not intended for lifting. Their rated capacity is only for stabilizing. We have kits with capacities above 8,000 lbs but the largest support capacity for a single jack is the Ultra-Fab Ultra Scissor Jack - 24" Lift - 6,500 lbs # UF48-979006 or the 30 inch lift # UF48-979032. So if you use one on each side of your trailer that gives you a 13,000 lb support capacity at that location since you wouldn't put it on one side and not the other.

  • TorkLift Hitch Extensions for TorkLift SuperHitch Compatibility
  • The TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch Receiver Dual 2" Receivers # TLF1002 does not come with the extensions like # TLE1536. You will need to purchase them separately. I've attached the link to all your options to assist as they are various lengths and rated capacities. I've also attached a review of this hitch receiver to assist. The TorkLift Superhitch will allow the strongest extensions due to the SuperTruss design and support from second extension support bar and chains....

  • Is Box Spring Needed with Denver Mattress Rest Easy Plush RV Foam Mattress
  • Depending on how your bed lift is set up you may need a box spring underneath the Denver Mattress Rest Easy Plush RV Foam Mattress - 75" Long x 60" Wide - Short Queen # DE29ZR that you referenced. If the lift has a support that supports all of the mattress then one would not be needed. I don't know what mattress you have currently but I can almost guarantee this mattress will be much more comfortable.

  • Jack Needed to Support Slide Out on 2018 Passport 2810BH with No Rails Under Slide Out
  • Since you don't have the rails under your slide out the typical slide out supports like part # UF19-960003 wont' work but we do have another possible solution for you. Brophy has some camper jacks that are meant to be used for supporting a truck bed camper but when I spoke with my contact at Brophy she said you could use them for your slide out too. These come in varying weight capacities and max heights so you would just need to choose one that fits your application. Please note that...

  • Does the Hood Lift Support for a 2006 Toyota 4Runner Work with Front Hood or Rear Hatch
  • The Hood Lift Support part # ATL94YR which is a fit for a 2006 Toyota 4Runner is designed to replace the strut under the hood over the engine bay. If you're looking for the strut that holds up the back hatch you will need to source this elsewhere as we do not carry them.

  • Can 2019 Ford F-150 4x4 Be Lifted By Frame with Air Bags
  • There are two airbag options for a 2019 Ford F-150 4x4, the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57385 and the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2582. The AirLift kit would not allow you to lift the vehicle by the frame without supporting the axle or unbolting the bag but the Firestone kit would. However, the Firestone kit also will not work with an in-bed hitch. I don't have any straps that are specifically for supporting the rear axle but any standard ratchet...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2016 Mercedes Benz CLA 250 For Carrying a Scooter
  • Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12163 is confirmed to fit your 2016 Mercedes Benz CLA 250. While the receiver is capable of supporting up to 350lbs of tongue weight you will want to verify your CLA is capable of supporting the weight of your scooter and the lift. If your lift has any Auxiliary Lights # C53201 you will also need to install a 4-Way # C59496 to power the lights.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a Lifted 2011 Toyota Tundra
  • This will depend on how your 2011 Toyota Tundra was lifted. If it was a body/frame lift, then the SumoSprings # SSR-610-54 will work. This style of lift does not affect the suspension and basically keeps it stock, for the lack of a better word. However, if it was a suspension lift that was done, then they will not fit. This style of lift creates too much of a gap for the # SSR-610-54 to supply any kind of support. That being said, you are not completely out of luck with a suspension lifted...

  • Will Air Bags Work On a Lifted 2017 Ford F-350
  • The correct Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs for a 2017 Ford F-350 is part # F42ZR. That said, these won't work well with most lift kits due to the design of the brackets nor will any air bags on this vehicle. If you have a lift kit installed you'll need to look into different options for support. I recommend the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS3611-SLHD for models with factory overload springs or part # RAS3611-SHD for models...
