Review on ๐Ÿš— Enhance Your Vehicle's Performance with Air Lift 88138 LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Suspension Kit in Black by John Bourgeois

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Installation does not take 1-2 hours

Installation does not take 1-2 hours as stated in the product documentation. This was installed on my RV with two rear wheels. After the car was jacked up and the wheels removed (an hour alone), it took a good 4 hours to get it fitted properly. From all the product images, the buyer thinks it is a double height bellows, but it is not. This is a bellows about 5 inches high. I was expecting a bit more travel since there is an inward camber that prevents inward sagging. The airbags returned the sagging old springs to their original ride height and added the extra ability to tow a trailer. If you need extra buoyancy, look elsewhere. This kit restores the original ride height, but you don't get even a little extra lift! To make my setup worse, one of the factory presses was leaking in the brass air fittings so I had to send in a replacement airbag and spend another 4 hours replacing it. Overall, the product increases load capacity and restores the original ride height. Installation requires moderate mechanical skill and much more time than indicated. The picture on the packaging and literature is deceptive as this is not what you get.
