LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate
Installing the LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate System
IMPORTANT SYSTEM INFORMATION
The air springs will last much longer if they are not the suspension limiter in either compression
or extension . The air spring compresses to 2 .8” and extends to 9 .1” . Regardless of the load,
the air pressure should be adjusted so that the normal ride height is maintained at all times .
The shock absorber is usually the limiter on extension . If this is not the case, the use of
limiting straps should be considered, particularly for off-road vehicles .
A DISTANCE OF 4” OR GREATER MUST BE MAINTAINED BETWEEN THE UPPER
AND LOWER BRACKET FOR KIT #57297 (2WD) . ADD SUFFICIENT PRESSURE TO
MAINTAIN THIS HEIGHT .
Your vehicle may be equipped with a rear brake proportioning valve . Any type of load
assist product could affect brake performance . We recommend that you check with your
dealer before installing this type of product . If your vehicle DOES NOT have a rear brake
proportioning valve or is equipped with an anti-lock type brake system, installation of a load
assist product will have NO EFFECT on brake system performance .
COMPRESSED AIR CAN CAUSE INJURY AND DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND PARTS
IF IT IS NOT HANDLED PROPERLY . FOR YOUR SAFETY, DO NOT TRY TO INFLATE THE
AIR SPRINGS UNTIL THEY HAVE BEEN PROPERLY SECURED TO THE VEHICLE .
