Question

Question:

I’ve got a 2019 Thor motor coach on a F550 chassis. I’m looking for 7500lbs air bags. Do they exist or is 5000lbs bags the only way to go?

I recommend The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57345.I like the Air Lift air bags over the other air bags that we sell because they're built strong and with a more durable material while still offering a good comfortable ride. We do not offer 7,500 pound air bags and they will not exist for your 2019 Thor Motorhome on a Ford F-550 Chassis. Using 7,500 pound air bags would be overkill and would provide you with a non comfortable ride. The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL88242 that you mentioned above are not confirmed to fit either.

To make your journey even easier I would also recommend The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System # AL74000EZ. I like this compressor system over the others that we offer because it has Bluetooth compatibility and will turn your smart phone into a fully-functional controller using the mobile app.

I attached a review video link below explaining the Air Lift airbags into greater detail. If you have any further questions please feel free to reach back out to me and I will be more than happy to further assist you in your towing endeavors.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
