Air Lift 1000 Air Bag Suspension Kit

Why Air? If towing or hauling is a bouncing, swaying, thrill ride or if you're concerned about safety when your vehicle is loaded or if you and your passengers could use a little more comfort in that nice ride of yours, maybe it's time to add air. Air Lift has been designing and building air spring suspensions since 1950 and Air Lift's years of experience have made them experts in improving your vehicle ride, safety, handling and load hauling. Air Lift's 1000 series is engineered as an add-on helper spring for coil suspensions. AirLift 1000 is ideal for the rear coil springs of many passenger cars and some SUV's that tow or carry light to medium loads. Air Lift 1000 is made from a very durable polyurethane material and is inserted into the vehicle's stock coil springs. When filled with air, it increases the spring rate, or ability to support a load. Because of its design, Air Lift 1000 products are best stated as load support products, rather than lifting products. The Air Lift 1000 products function much different from Super Duty and Ride Control kits. When charged with air the bag will grow in all directions much like blowing up a balloon. Controlling the growth requires a coil spring to hold it into shape and funnel its spring energy into its length. The bag's spring rate comes from compressing its length and also from the bag being wedged in between the coils of the spring. Over inflating the bag can cause the wedging to become too severe and therefore causing the material to thin, which in turn, causes a decrease in spring rate and a premature failure. Kits are also available for front coil spring vehicles such as trucks, SUV's and motorhomes. AirLift 1000 features an easy do-it-yourself installation with simple hand tools.
