Can AirLift Air Bags Be Used to Raise/Lower the Rear of a Vehicle for Easier Loading and Unloading?
Question:
Hello, Thinking about getting airbags for my truck for towing a car hauler trailer. I have a 2022 GMC Limited 1500 with the max trailering package. I completely understand the benefits when towing the trailer but my question is about loading/unloading the trailer. Can I increase the pressure not exceeding the max PSI to raise the rear of the truck a bit which would lower the tail of the trailer for loading/unloading? My car is lowered and has a longer nose which makes for a difficult loading / unloading process. Would like to get away from using Race Ramps as extensions. Thanks.

I spoke with AirLift about the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL25980EZ and they said that their airbags will work for that, however the amount of height gained would be marginal. They mentioned that typically you are likely to only gain an inch or so over stock height.
