12 best air suspension problems

Air suspension systems in vehicles offer a smoother ride and the ability to adjust the ride height, but they can also be susceptible to various problems and failures. Here are some common air suspension problems:

  1. Air Leaks: One of the most frequent issues with air suspension systems is air leaks. These can occur in the air springs (airbags) themselves, in the air lines, or at the fittings and connectors. Air leaks can lead to a loss of air pressure, causing the vehicle to sag or ride unevenly.

  2. Compressor Failure: The air compressor is responsible for inflating the airbags and maintaining the desired ride height. Compressor failures can result from wear and tear, electrical problems, or damage. When the compressor fails, the suspension may become stuck in one position or fail to adjust.

  3. Air Spring Damage: Over time, air springs can wear out or become damaged due to factors such as road debris, potholes, or excessive stress.When air springs fail, the vehicle may experience a rough ride, uneven suspension, or even a complete loss of ride height control.

  4. Faulty Sensors: Modern air suspension systems rely on sensors to monitor the vehicle's height and adjust the air pressure accordingly. Sensor malfunctions or sensor calibration issues can lead to incorrect ride height adjustments or error messages on the dashboard.

  5. Electronic Control Unit (ECU) Issues: The ECU controls the operation of the air suspension system. Electrical problems or ECU failures can result in erratic suspension behavior or a complete loss of functionality.

  6. Valve Block Problems: The valve block is responsible for directing air to the individual air springs. If it fails or becomes clogged, it can lead to uneven suspension behavior or a loss of control over ride height.

  7. Corrosion and Rust: Exposure to moisture and road salt can cause corrosion and rust in various components of the air suspension system, including air springs, fittings, and the air compressor. Corrosion can weaken these parts and lead to failures.

  8. Excessive Noise: Some air suspension systems can produce noise during operation, which may be a sign of underlying issues. Unusual noises can result from air leaks, worn components, or improper installation.

  9. Warning Lights: When the air suspension system encounters problems, it often triggers warning lights on the dashboard to alert the driver. These lights should not be ignored, as they indicate a need for inspection and potential repairs.

It's important to address air suspension problems promptly to maintain ride comfort, handling, and safety. Diagnosing and repairing air suspension issues can be complex, and it's typically best handled by experienced mechanics or technicians with expertise in automotive air suspension systems. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent some of these problems and extend the lifespan of the system.

  • Fits single rear wheel srw and dual rear wheel drw models. Will fit most side mount fifth wheel hitch applications. Does not fit cab and chassis applications. Adjustability

User questions & answers

Question: Will this fit with a fifth wheel hitch installed in my truck
Answer: It fit with my fifth wheel hitch no problems.
Question: Do you have to buy a compressor for this to work? Some type of controller
Answer: No, you do not have to buy an onboard compressor or controller. It comes with a Schrader valve that you can use to inflate or deflate the same way you would your tires. You could potentially use a gas station air pump to fill them. I put my Schrader valve near the back license plate for convenience.
Question: Does this system improve the ride when the pickup isn’t loaded? I have a 08 3500 diesel short box quad cab 4x
Answer: If the 3500 is not a dually, I think it may help with sway from truck tilt...keeping the rear the truck more level. My truck is an 07 Ram 2500. The item stabilized the truck when cornering. If you have a dually and you are trying to get ride of stiffness of suspension, I think the ride will still be stiff. I am not an expert and my only experience with them is on my Ram 2500. I installed the airlift to help with heavier loads like a fifth wheel for travel trailer. I did install them myself and I would have to say that is possible even if you are slightly mechanically inclined. So long as you can read and follow instructions and have the tools and place to work on the truck, it is very fairly simple to install.
Question: will it fit a 2019 Ram
Answer: If the rear is coil sprung no it won’t fit. They have a kit the goes inside the coil spring. If leafs then yes this will fit.

User questions & answers

Question: I have a 2013 Ram 1500. It has rear coil springs, no leaf springs. Will this fit my truck
Answer: Yes it will. The kit is designed to go where your jounce bumber is and does not affect your factory suspension at all until you add air and then it helps carry the weight and also cuts down on load sway. I love this product on my 12 Ram 1500.
Question: Will they work with a 4 inch lift kit
Answer: no I do not think these will work with a lifted truck unless its just a body lift. these just replace the bump stops between the leaf springs and axle.
Question: Where can i find the 57370 kit!!!??? Air lift website doesnt advertize it. Cant find here either . Air lift wont respond to emails
Answer: I done a Google search and found it on SD Spring trucks also on ebay
Question: Do these bags come with hardware
Answer: Came with all hardware required to install it. Note: It comes with a single air service valve. I elected to install a separate valve for each bag rather than using the T fitting. This avoids exaggerated drooping of an axle (by air displacing from bag to bag) when there is uneven loading or by being parked on uneven ground too long. Enjoy.

User questions & answers

Question: What size push-to-connect fitting do I need with 1/4" high pressure tubing
Answer: Air Lift knows what they are doing and stand behind their product. If they say it fits it will fit. But it may not fit with the U-bolts holding your hitch on. Best to ask an installation shop near you that may have come across this problem before. I have a B&W Hitch and had to remake a couple of u-botls that came with the unit not to drill the frame.
Question: Is there any type of calibration needed after install? Also will the check suspension light go away
Answer: You can purchase lift spacers separately to make it work, but it is not recommended as it will void any warranty.
Question: How much does it cost
Answer: It was the entire kit. Really nice and simple install
Question: Does this item fit 2009 Lincoln Navigator
Answer: I've put these on three different Chevy's and the only drilling is where I put the air valves. If you had the on board air that may be different.

How important is Air Suspension Compressor Pump?

Air bag suspensions system uses a system of inflatable air bags filled with compressed air to suspend the vehicle off the ground. One of the most important components of an air bag system is the compressor. The compressor is what supplies the entire system with the compressed air required to inflate the airbags and support the weight of the vehicle.

Air Compressors provide air to the integral components of your vehicle’s air ride suspension, keeping air springs and air shocks inflated to a necessary height based on your carrying load, towing and passengers.A properly working air suspension will keep your vehicle’s ride a smoother, more enjoyable one, and help with vehicle stability, braking and fuel economy.

Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Air Suspension Air Compressor:

1. Vehicle riding lower than normal

One of the first and most common symptoms of a problem with the air suspension compressor is a noticeably lower vehicle ride height. If the compressor is worn or is having a problem, it may not be able to adequately inflate the air bags and the vehicle may sit and ride noticeably lower as a result.

2. Abnormal noises during operation

If you hear any sort of abnormal sounds, such as excessively loud clicking, whining, or grinding, then that may be a sign of a problem with the compressor’s motor or fan. If the compressor is allowed to continuously operate with abnormal sounds, it may eventually result in damage to the compressor that will cause it to fail.

3. The compressor won’t come on

Another symptom and a more serious issue is a compressor that does not come on. Most suspension systems are self-regulated and will automatically turn the compressor on and off according to the system’s requirements. The suspension system cannot function without it.

This Air Suspension Compressor Pump Fits For the Following Vehicles:

2006-2013 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

2005-2009 Land Rover LR3

2010-2013 Land Rover LR4

Air Lift 57275 LoadLifter 5000 Series Rear Air Spring Kit

Air Lift

Based on 778 reviews Check latest price

Product description

Offering up to 5,000 pounds of load-leveling capacity, the new Load Lifter Ultimate Plus kit from Air Lift Company will make towing and hauling with your vehicle a comfortable and stress-free experience

From the Manufacturer

Air Lift adjustable air helper springs level your load, and give your truck, van, or SUV a safer, more comfortable ride. Air springs are easy to install between your existing springs and the vehicle frame. Just add air when towing or hauling a heavy load, and reduce air pressure when unloaded; they are fully adjustable for a great ride. Air Lift air springs eliminate sag, sway, and bottoming out. They are made with rugged, durable components for long, reliable service.

LoadLifter 5000 kits are Air Lift's heaviest-rated kits for hauling or towing heavy loads. They're designed to fit such popular vehicles as ¾ ton and one-ton pickup trucks, many Class A, B & C motor homes, and commercial trucks and other severe uses.

LoadLifter 5000

Fully adjustable, LoadLifter 5000 kits have real air muscle, and keep your vehicle riding level and comfortable with no load, loaded, or towing on any road condition. Air Lift's toughest air helper springs, they have up to 5,000 pounds of leveling capacity, right up to the manufacturer's recommended Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, and are air adjustable from 5 to 100 PSI. Rugged and durable, the superior 2-ply fabric reinforced air springs are built like a tire. Ultra high-strength Zytel nylon end caps – strong as steel, but less heavy, and corrosion proof – complete the air springs. Your kit will also include Air Lift's exclusive upper and lower roll plates that increase load capacity by 10 percent and protect the air spring from sharp edges such as brackets, etc. All kits are engineered to be easy to install and come with a fully illustrated instruction manual.

Why Air?

Factory suspensions must compromise between ride comfort and load hauling capacity. Soft factory suspensions can't carry heavy loads, and heavy steel springs ride rough, especially when the vehicle is unloaded. Only air springs can support your heavy loads and provide a great ride. Air Lift adjustable air springs solve these common problems by allowing you to tune your suspension under all load and road conditions. Just add air when towing or hauling and then remove air for a softer ride when unloaded.

Eliminate these common load and towing problems for good when you use Air Lift air springs:

Sag – Proper weight distribution to all tires improves steering, braking and tire wear. This is especially important while towing: adjust the air springs to accept the tongue weight of the trailer or other heavy loads.

Headlight aim – Only level and stable vehicles provide safe and proper headlight aiming – critical for night driving safety.

Rough ride – Air Lift's progressive spring rate soaks up bumps, keeping tires on the road for better handling.

Bottoming out – Air Lift springs restore normal ride height when heavily loaded or towing, reducing suspension wear and eliminating crashing on bumps.

Sway and body roll – Air springs increase spring rate and vastly improve vehicle stability. When towing trailers, the air springs permit precise vehicle height adjustment for exact alignment, reducing trailer sway. Less roll and sway means a safer and more comfortable ride.

Porpoising – Even heavy pickups which don't squat when loaded can begin to "porpoise" vertically when towing heavy trailers. Progressive rate air springs dramatically reduce this problem for a safer, more comfortable ride.

Suggested Accessories

For maximum convenience and leveling on-the-go, nothing beats an Air Lift on board air compressor system. Automatic or dash-mounted, it quickly adjusts your vehicle for changes in load or road conditions. Air Lift compressor systems are the most advanced in the industry and work with all brands of air springs.

Best Warranty in the Business

Air Lift Company warrants that the LoadLifter 5000 air spring system will be free from defects in workmanship or materials for the lifetime of the vehicle of original installation. This does not include installation or other service charges for replacement.

Exclusive 60 Day Ride Satisfaction Guarantee

Air Lift guarantees you'll be happy with the improvement in road comfort and load handling. If you're not satisfied, you may remove the product and return it to your dealer for a full refund of your purchase price within the first 60 days after your purchase.

User questions & answers

Question: Will this fit my 2010 3500HD with 6" lift kit or is there some adapter I might need because it's lifted
Answer: Call AirLift customer service. They were very very helpful with my install.
Question: Any idea if these air helpers would work on a K10 4 wheel drive Silverado Chevrolet
Answer: I believe they make some for your truck. This part number is for 1999 to 2007 Chevrolet. Direct bolt on. If air ride don't have any for your truck check out firestone. I would call air ride direct.
Question: will this work for 4x
Answer: Yes. Installed on my 2005 Chevy 2500hd 4x4
Question: Will this work on my Chevy 2500 with a b&w goosneck hitch. Was concerned if the hitch mounting points were in the same location as the air lift brack
Answer: I believe it will mount with no problem. I installed this system on my 06 chevy 2500. I have a 5th wheel hitch in the bed of mine and had no issues at all. this system mounts to the rearend just below the frame rail. Your gooseneck hitch support brackets etc., shouldn't get in the way. if you have the hitch in your truck already it should be easy to see over the back tires at the frame rail and rearend to make sure. You can run the air lines where ever you feel most comfortable. mine are hidden inside the gas fill door. Ive had a lot of compliments on mine.Good luck with yours.
