Air Bag Helper Springs for a 2015 Ram 1500 with 4 Inch Rear Lift

Question:

I have a 6 inch lift in the front and 4 inch in the rear on my 2014 ram 1500. I am not sure if you make a spacer to close the distance that a lifted vehicle would have. Can you tell me the length of the air lift 1000 air bags? Also is there a spacer available? If no spacer is available would it work ok to install the air lift bag inside the coil spring at the top and allow the truck to squat down onto the bags?

There are no spacers for the AirLift 1000 air springs # AL60818 for your 2014 Ram 1500. You could still use the springs (assuming that the rear coil springs in your truck are stock) but the truck will squat A LOT before they engage. Depending on how much the stock suspension travels the truck could bottom out before the springs can even engage.

What you could do instead is use air bag kit # AL57365 and then add spacer set # AL52440 for vehicles with a 4 inch lift. In this case the 4 inch lift would mean an increase between the top of the axle and bottom of the frame of 4 inches.
