Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Rear Air Helper Springs Installation - 2022 Toyota Tundra- Video
Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at and installing the Air Lift LoadLifter 5,000, air helper springs on our 2022 Toyota Tundra. Air helper springs are going to help to support the rear end of your vehicle when you're hauling something in the bed of your truck or from the hitch. With newer trucks, they tend to have softer coil springs for a nice ride quality. But what that leads to is that anytime you put any amount of weight on the back of the truck, it's going to cause a significant amount of squat compared to the older leaf style springs that we're on older vehicles. So when hauling those heavy loads, the air helper springs are gonna help to level out your load so that your truck is not squatting in the rear and you can get your headlights pointed back down on the road and a more sound contact with the front tires on the ground. more

This one, as we mentioned, is a Severe Service kit, and these are recommended when you're using like a snowplow or heavy aftermarket accessories like a steel bumper on the front of your vehicle.

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at this Air Lift Ride Control Air Helper Spring Set. Now this is gonna help to support your vehicle's suspension when you're hauling heavy loads. So as you know, the more weight you put in your pickup truck's bed, it is going to cause the rear of your truck to sag in the back end which can bring your front end up causing all sorts of issues. It can put a lot of strain on your rear suspension. It can make your steering kinda light, your tires wear unevenly and cause your headlights to come up shining into the eyes of oncoming traffic. more

Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs Installation - 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 3500- Video
Hey, everybody, how's it going Today, we're gonna be going over and showing you how to install the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs here on a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. Adding air helper springs here to your Silverado is gonna be an excellent option, because what it's gonna do is it's gonna provide some rear-end support when we're towing and hauling those heavy loads. So if we don't add any suspension enhancements to our truck here and we couple that really heavy trailer or we're throwing a ton of weight in our truck bed, what that's gonna do is it's going to sag the rear of the truck and it's gonna bring the front end of the truck up. Now that not only looks kind of goofy, that's actually gonna have drastic effects on our overall towing experience and the handling and performance of our truck. So one of the major things that people don't realize is a lot of our braking force comes from the front axle, and that braking force relies on the weight over the axle to help the truck come to a stop. So when we take the weight off the front axle and transfer it to the rear we're gonna be drastically reducing our braking power. more

And because there is less weight on your front axle, your front tires make less contact with the road, which causes problems with traction, steering and braking. more

Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement Installation - 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500- Video
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Timbren suspension enhancement system for the rear axle on a 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500. Adding rear suspension helper springs is really a great option because your factory jounce bumper is pretty short and a lot of that comes down to people are daily driving their trucks more and more, so manufacturers are kind of making them a little bit more comfortable and that way, when you're daily driving, you're not getting that harsh suspension. But with that, sometimes the suspension squats quite a bit. And partially I think is because the jounce bumpers take so long to engage and by the time they do engage that suspensions really lost a lot of this travel. Whereas adding these are going to kind of give it a fighting chance. It's not gonna be able to squish down all the way and that's gonna allow those shocks to have more compression as you hit bumps. more

Hello, neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look and installing the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs for the rear axle on a 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500. Trucks have become kind of daily drivers for a lot of people, and with that, they're really aiming for comfort. But when you need a truck to do truck things, as far as carry weight or tow a trailer, it can still do it. The thing is, is that comfort that they've designed has allowed the vehicle to really sag and you're not gonna get as much suspension travel, and a lot of that comes down to your jounce bumpers. It takes a long time for those to engage. Well, if you can engage them a little bit quicker, it's gonna soften that blow, not only on normal driving, but also when that heavy load comes, the rear suspension is going to fight back with these SumoSprings in place, giving the suspension a fighting chance and just making a better overall towing experience. more

So we're gonna take this out on our test course, and this is set up for an electrician to use, so it's got all the equipment in the back, so already the jounce bumpers are pretty well resting on the axle, and that's gonna make for that suspension to not be able to move very well. And we just installed a hitch and brake controller, so they're planning on putting a trailer on suspension that's already kind of maxed out. So I'll be interested to see the difference that the airbags make. So let's hit some of these bumps and see how it rides. Not a whole lot of soaking up. more

This stress not only affects your brakes in a bad way but your tires and head lighting, and your handling suffers as well. more

Air Lift 1000 Rear Coil Springs Air Helper Springs Review- Video
Hey guys, Kevin here at etrailer and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Airlift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs. These airbags are gonna give you a five to 35 PSI range of adjustability so that you can kind of fine tune exactly how much support you're gonna be getting from them. They have a thousand pound capacity, and that does not mean that you can add an additional a thousand pounds to your vehicle's tongue weight capacity or towing capacity, it's only going to help you support that weight. So this is going to just be an enhancement, it's not an addition to what you actually have for your capacities. So the reason why you'd want to get these airbags is just because on a lot of cars, like our Nissan Pathfinder, there's not a lot of options. This is gonna be one of the only things you can really do to kind of help to support that weight, especially if you don't have the option for a weight distribution hitch. more

Hello, neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look and installing the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Plus Rear Airbags on a 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Adding airbags to the back of your truck is really nice, because when you have a load that's really heavy or if you have a fifth-wheel or gooseneck that you pull, that truck is gonna wanna sag, and there are some downsides with the sagging. First off, you have a lot of stress that's put on the rear suspension and, honestly, the suspension really can't do a whole lot when it's already maxed out against the jounce bumpers. It also tilts the front of the vehicle up, so you're gonna have less braking, less steering feel. If you've ever had a truck loaded up, you kind of noticed that it gets real light in the steering wheel, and that's not exactly comforting when you're pulling a big load or have a heavy load in the bed. Now, these ones are rated at a 5,000 pound capacity and that's not to say that you're adding 5,000 pounds to what you can tow, but it can support up to that weight. more
