Expert Answers about Chevrolet Air Suspension Compressor Kit
- Air Bag Suspension Kit that Fits 2020 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis
- I have an air bag suspension kit that fits your 2020 Ram 3500 cab and chassis Tradesman with the part # F2478 but the Air Lift kit you mentioned does not fit the cab and chassis model trucks.
For a compressor kit then the heavy duty part # F2097 will work great to make inflating the bags and maintaining them easier. The compressor will inflate faster than standard compressors and the gauge inside the vehicle will allow you to monitor and inflate them from inside the vehicle.

- The Lippert Components Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade # LC1565401 that you referenced does not come with a compressor as it's not typically used with an in-cab or trailer unit. The air valves are usually just run to an external compressor when needed. The included gauge and panel is designed to be mounted to the trailer frame.
With that being said you can certainly add a compressor to allow for easier operation. For this I recommend the Air Lift # AL25980, a single...

- The Firestone # F2299 Ride-Rite Air Helper Spring kit is the correct fit for your 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4. As long as you keep at least the 5 psi minimum air pressure in the system, you'll get full articulation out of your suspension and the air bags will not be damaged.
You might also consider an on-board compressor system like # F2219. A compressor system would allow you to fine tune the suspension according to the load your carrying or the condition of the terrain while you're on the...

- The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F2603 you referenced will address any sagging issues you may be encountering that affects your ride height. It will not lift it in the sense that you are asking for. The most it will do is return your 3 year old suspension system to its factory ride height. Depending on how many miles and usage your current springs have this may give you the height increase you are looking for but a 2" lift is not the air helper springs designed purpose....
view full answer... - How to Determine Correct Inflation Pressure for Firestone Ride Rite Helper Springs
- Air Helper springs for a tow vehicle or RV's suspension always have a fairly wide range of operating pressure. For instance the Firestone kit you mentioned # F2071 requires nothing less than the minimum 5-psi pressure at all times but can be inflated to as much as 100-psi when the vehicle requires this much stiffening of its suspension. There are also kits such as Firestone # F2700 that are for extra-heavy-duty applications and these use air springs that can handle as much as 150-psi pressure.
There...

- Looking at the manual for the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F2525 it states that installation of this kit requires a minimum of 6" of clearance between the tire side wall and the vehicle frame and a 1/2" of clearance around the air spring when inflated. You can measure to confirm but if your new tires are only 3/4" wider than stock you should have plenty of room. The air bags will only raise the height of your F-150 if your suspension has been completely worn out and sags....
view full answer... - Is Compressor Needed to Maintain Lippert Center Point Suspension Upgrade
- Nope, a compressor is not needed in order to use and maintain the air bags of the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade # LC1565391.
You can simply maintain and fill the air bags with any simple air filling station at a gas station whenever you deem necessary.

- The instructions, which I have linked for you, do not offer a specific path through which to route the tubing because it is different on every vehicle but I can offer some tips.
When routing wire from the cab to the underside of the vehicle to the other components you will need to go through the firewall. There may be an existing grommet or opening you can use but you may need to drill a hole as well. When drilling be careful not to drill through anything on the opposite side of the firewall....

- The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers item # AL59562 have a maximum capacity of 100 PSI. This kit is verified to fit 2005 - 2015 Nissan Xterras.
To better use this air suspension kit I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount item # AL74000EZ. Air Lift's premium, wireless, onboard compressor system with Bluetooth allows you to fill your air springs at the touch of a button....
view full answer... - Do Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs Add Lift to 2016 Chrysler Town and Country
- You won't get any lift on your 2016 Chrysler Town and Country when using the Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60814.
The springs are designed to level out and support the rear suspension of your vehicle when it is sagging, but won't otherwise gain any additional lift. In addition to the helper springs, I do recommend adding a compressor to make it much easier to maintain their pressure, the Air Lift Load Controller II Compressor System # AL25592.
I have added...
view full answer... - Can the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System be Used with a Different Air Compressor
- We do not sell the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System part # AL25980 separately from the compressor. However, you should have no issue using the wireless inflation valves and remote with any brand of compressor or tank as the principal will be the same. You will however need to more than likely buy new fittings to combine the wireless remote and inflation valves to a different tank/compressor.
view full answer... - Will Air Lift Air Bags Limit Suspension Travel of 2019 Ram 1500 in Off-Road Conditions
- If you have the air bags set to the minimum of 5 psi, the suspension will still be able to travel most of the way on your 2019 Ram 1500 once you have installed the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88375.
So while technically it will limit travel, it won't be so much as to hamper your Ram's ability to go off-roading, and these air bags will offer your truck exceptional support for your Ram's suspension when you have a load in the bed or are towing a trailer.

view full answer... - Can Air Spring Suspension System Air Pressure Side to Side Impact Handling?
- Running different air pressure from side to side is not an issue for handling on your 2000 Ford F350. It allows level transport so it will actually help with the handling. Using a kit like the Firestone Air Springs # F2071 will allow you to use the manual inflation valves separately for that very purpose. There are also compressors that will allow this independent adjustment. For that, I recommend the Firestone Air Command II - Analog Gauge w/ Heavy Duty Compressor - Dual Function -...
view full answer... - Recommended Air Bag Suspension Kit for a 2023 GMC Sierra 1500
- For your 2023 GMC Sierra 1500, I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 item # AL57388 over the item # AL88388. Both of these systems are confirmed to fit the AT4 4WD models. They each have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will both support your rear end and level it out when you are towing a trailer or hauling a heavy load in the back. Air bags in general are the best option for suspension enhancement if you don't want to notice them on daily driving.
The main difference between the two is...

- The air spring suspension enhancement systems when using a compressor switch like the Dual Function Air Spring Control Panel # F2188 will vent the air into the cabin of the vehicle. The air travels to the gauge to monitor the psi, and exhausts the air into the cabin directly behind the switch itself.
You can see in the attached photo of the Replacement Switch for Firestone Electric Control Panel # F9039 there are two connection points. The upper is the input of air into the switch and...
view full answer... - Setting Up Weight Distribution with Auto-Leveling Air Bags on a GMC Yukon
- If your compressor kicked in after your auto load leveling air bag system and weight distribution were set up together then the only solution I can think of is that you have front air bags as well and they are sensing the extra weight that the weight distribution (WD) system is putting on the front suspension. It shouldn't be trying to fill the rear bags because a WD system should be taking some weight off.
With that being said, if you have the ability to turn off the auto-leveling function...
view full answer... - Can the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade Be Tied Into On Board Air
- The Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade part # LC1565401 won't really require frequent adjustments for most applications like a camping trailer. Once you find the sweet spot for the trailer you won't be adjusting that much aside from a few psi to maintain or if you adjust psi for empty/loaded towing. This is why there is no on-board air integration components with this kit. That's not to say this is not possible as they use standard 1/4" air lines and fittings but...

- Installation of the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs, # AL23FJ will have the ride height at about the same as stock suspension on your 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty when set at the lower pressure. The purpose is to keep the truck level when having a heavy load on the truck, not to increase the stance when unloaded.
There is no drilling or modifications required for installation. I do recommend that you add an on-board compressor so you can adjust the air bags from inside the...

- The suspension performance of your 2021 Toyota Tundra can be negatively affected if you are using cradles with any air bags, including the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2445.
The Daystar cradles are designed to increase suspension travel, so using them with any air bags is going to result in a bouncier ride. My recommendation would be not to use them to ensure you have the best ride as they really aren't needed with the outstanding Ride-Rite air bags.
