Help Fitting Air Lift Air Helper Springs On a 2019 Ram 1500 Classic With 6" Rough Country Lift Kit
Question:
I have a 2019 ram classic with a rough country 6 inch full suspension lift. I got a set of airlift 5000s to put in but the bottom bracket cant bolt on because of the lift. Is there a spacer to go between the bottom bracket and the axle?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Currently Air Lift only offers the spacers which fit between the mounting brackets and the air spring like the 4" Spacer # AL52440 you will need for the 6" Rough Country Lift on your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic. Your lift only raises the rear suspension 4" as it lifts the front 6" to level your truck. I do see the brackets Rough country uses for the control arms will interfere with the mounting bracket for the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88365. To resolve this issue you will want to have included brackets from the lift kit modified so they will not interfere with the brackets for the air lift. This will likely mean you will either have to have a brackets welded on the axle with gussets or lower the upper control arm mounts to work with the original mounting holes on the axle.
