Problems with TPMS when installing

For some reason TPMS doesn't work when airbags are installed. I can take the bags off the truck and it works again, but as soon as I put them back on it stops working. I've been going in circles for months trying to figure this out. I tried to contact Airlift to see if they have a solution but nothing came up. They just send me to their website and say they are not for tech support. If it weren't for the constant flashing lights and pop-up warnings while driving, I'd probably use them. Choosing

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Nothing here

Great for the price and easy to assemble.

They've been installed for about 2 weeks but haven't been towed yet and will update as soon as I do. Installation is quite simple and a lot easier if you have someone to help you. A T-piece was used to connect the hoses together rather than filling the bags individually. The only complaint is that the instructions say to install a 90 degree compression hose fitting "hand tighten plus 1/2 turn, do not overtighten". I twisted my hand plus two turns and they leaked horribly. Went back andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Great Product: Parts

Installed on a 2016 Duramax 2500hd. Installation only took about 2 hours in my entryway using basic hand tools. I flashed them separately. A pickup that discharges at 9 psi will drive better than stock. The air lines were leaking where the bags were installed. I took the hoses off, lubricated them with soapy water, reinstalled them and they haven't leaked since. I would recommend using soapy water for the initial installation. It really is a no-drill system. I routed the air ducts inside theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Great product but may not be compatible with all hitches

I started the installation and quickly realized that I would have to modify the BW Flip Ball clutch. The items shown in the picture are stabilizers that prevent the rest of the hitch from twisting. This part of the hitch sits about 1 inch above the top of the frame. We had to cut a notch about 1" deep and 3/4" wide to get the airbag u-bolt in place. Overall it wasn't too bad because we always had a plasma cutter on hand. It was quite frustrating having to remove and then reinstall this partโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Slightly cracked

air jack better than two airbags

not the first time I've installed this on my truck the first time was my 03 Chevy 2500 HD. 5 years no problem, just bought a new 2019 Chevy 2500 hd. The instructions could be a bit better when it comes to fitting airbag brackets on top, one of these isn't difficult, the bottom one can be a bit confusing but once the blocks slide in properly. I raised the body with the hitch, which gives enough space for the retractable airbags. Take your time managing plumbing and using cable ties. I used someโ€ฆ

Pros
  • new
Cons
  • don't remember

Don't waste your money on stainless steel.

This is the third set of AirLift pillows that I have installed. The functionality was flawless. I tow a 10,000 lb RV and trailer full of rocks and they work great. Couldn't imagine using a truck for transport without installing them. The instructions are a bit flimsy, but if you have at least a little understanding of the mechanics, you can figure it out. Took about 2.5 hours to install but this is my third set I have installed. My biggest disappointment was the extra money spent on theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Beautifully packaged
Cons
  • Faulty

They must be factory installed for all 4WD trucks

They must be factory installed for all 4WD trucks. Fits my 2015 Silverado 2500hd easily. Took about 2 hours for the bags and another hour for the wireless compressor. Big difference when towing heavy loads. Being able to rear-align a 15,000-pound truck helps with just about anything. Steering is better, no float. After their installation, the feeling that the white joints were separated disappeared. At 35 psi, the truck feels loaded like it should from the factory. Why call a truck a heavy duty

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
