DESCRIPTION

When air suspension fails, you'll know it. The most likely first symptoms are a lower, sagging ride height, or the selectable ride settings that no longer function. Other symptoms include a rougher, noisier ride, and sloppy handling through corners and over bumps. Fortunately, a failed air suspension component is not a dangerous failure like a tire blowout, but you do need to get it repaired, as ignoring it will slowly cause more damage to the rest of the suspension.

• Air spring - The most common air suspension failure is in the air bag spring. Like a standard shock,strust, or coil spring, these parts wear out over time and need replacement. Mainly, weathering and the repeated compression/decompression cycles cause cracks in the rubber bellows.
• Air dryer - Since air contains moisture, suspension systems include dryers and filters to keep that out of the sensitive components. When a dryer fails, moisture gets onto metal parts with tight tolerances, and the corrosion and rustcauses an air leak or a shorted electrical component.
• Compressor - Like your vehicle's air spring, the air suspension also has a compressor, and it can wear out for similar reasons. If the compressor fails or starts to wear out, the air bags won't stay inflated, causing a bumpier ride and further damage. A failed airbag can also wear out the compressor prematurely, as it continuously tries to fill the bag.
• Air lines - These small air pipes connect the air bags with all the various other components in the system. As the suspension moves, air lines can rub against other vehicle parts, eventually causing a leak. This can cause a sag at one corner, which is easy to diagnose, or in the entire system if the leak is near the reservoir. Replacing an air line is generally a cheap fix.

In order to improve your truck, you need to choose an air ride kit built for your needs. You can start narrowing down the options by looking at the kits that fit your vehicle’s year, make, model, and drivetrain. Then, you’ll want to use your truck bed length to pinpoint the right kit.
