The Airbag Man Air Helper Kit suits the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport QE (2015-On) and fits between the factory rear coil springs and chassis, adding up to 400kg of adjustable load support per axle. Air pressure is adjustable from 5-100psi through remote-mounted inflation valves, giving you a factory-soft ride unladen and firm support when towing a caravan or carrying a loaded tray. The double-convoluted rubber bellows spread load evenly and resist cracking from road grime and UV. Stocked in Australia with a manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team — see the full airbag suspension range for other applications.
Airbag Man helper kits use coil-insert air springs that sit inside the existing coils – add air when the load goes on to bring the vehicle back level, then let it out and the standard springs carry on exactly as before. Because each side inflates independently, you can also correct for an off-centre load like a slide-on or water tank.
They shine when the load keeps changing – a van on the towball some weekends, a loaded tray on others. Worth being clear about what they don't do: helper airbags don't increase your GVM or payload; they manage ride height and stability within the vehicle's existing ratings. If the vehicle is always loaded, upgraded springs (with airbags for the variation on top) is the better setup.

This kit doesn't replace your Pajero Sport's rear coil spring rate — it adds adjustable air support on top of the factory springs. Air pressure is what you tune to the load, not spring rate: run 5-15psi unladen for a factory-soft ride, and increase toward 100psi as you add caravan tow ball weight, a canopy and gear, or camping and water load in the tray. If you're carrying a heavy long-term accessory load and want a firmer base spring rate rather than relying on air pressure alone, look at our raised coil spring options as an alternative or companion to this helper kit.
Fitting this kit is a bolt-in job for an experienced DIY installer with basic hand tools, or your usual suspension workshop — no cutting or drilling is needed on the Pajero Sport QE chassis. Wheel alignment isn't affected by this kit on its own, since it doesn't change unladen ride height, but it's worth checking alignment if you've also fitted new control arms or coil springs at the same time. Let the air bags settle in for the first 500km at a moderate pressure and recheck all air line fittings for leaks once seated. If you're towing regularly, pair this kit with shock absorbers valved for constant load, since factory dampers aren't set up for sustained heavy towing.
Airbag Man has been engineering air suspension components for Australian 4WDs and utes for over 25 years, with local development aimed at towing, touring and trade use. This kit is backed by a manufacturer warranty and our team's Australian-based fitment support, so you're not left guessing at install time. See our team's background or view the full Airbag Man range for other vehicle applications.
This kit suits Pajero Sport owners who regularly tow a caravan or trailer, tradespeople carrying tools and equipment in the tray, and tourers loading up with camping gear, water and fuel.

Genuine Airbag Man suspension from an authorised Australian dealer.
Yes, SKU CR5031 is built specifically for the Pajero Sport QE built from 2015 onwards. It fits between the factory rear coil springs and chassis without cutting or drilling. If you're unsure of your exact build date or variant, our team can confirm fitment before you order.
This is a load-support kit, not a lift kit — it doesn't raise ride height when unladen. Instead, air pressure of up to 100psi is added under load to counter rear sag and bring the vehicle back toward its normal unladen height when towing or carrying weight. If you want a permanent height increase, pair it with a coil spring lift from our coil springs range instead.
The kit includes 2 x Airbag Man air helper bags, upper and lower mounting brackets, a braided air line kit, chassis-mounted inflation valves, a T-piece fitting and mounting hardware. Fitting instructions are included. A compressor and pressure gauge kit are sold separately if you don't already have one.
Yes, it's designed for exactly this — the rear air bags add up to 400kg of adjustable support to counter caravan or trailer tow ball weight. You inflate the bags before towing and can drop pressure again once unhitched. Many Pajero Sport owners run this kit specifically to keep the rear level while towing a van.
No, control arm upgrades aren't required for this helper kit since it doesn't change your Pajero Sport's ride height or suspension geometry at rest. Control arm upgrades are more relevant if you've also fitted a coil spring lift kit. If you're running both, ask our team about compatible control arms.
Not specifically for this kit on its own, because unladen ride height and geometry don't change. If you're fitting this alongside new coil springs or control arms at the same time, get an alignment done as part of that install. Always check with your workshop if anything else in the suspension has changed.
This kit doesn't come in different spring rates — it's an air-adjustable helper that sits alongside your factory coil spring rate. What you adjust is air pressure, from 5-100psi, to suit the load on board. If you need a firmer base spring rate for a constant heavy accessory load, look at our raised coil spring options instead.
This kit doesn't increase ride height at rest, so it won't create extra tyre clearance on its own. If you're planning larger tyres, you'll need a genuine lift kit with raised coil springs to gain the clearance required. Our team can recommend a suitable lift kit for the Pajero Sport if that's the goal.
This kit is backed by an Airbag Man manufacturer warranty covering the air bags and included components against manufacturing defects. We handle warranty support locally from our Australian team, so you're not dealing with an overseas supplier directly. Contact us if you need the specific warranty terms for your purchase.
Yes — run the air bags at low pressure (around 5-15psi) for daily unladen driving and the ride stays close to factory. You only need to inflate toward 100psi when you're towing or carrying a heavy load. This makes it practical for Pajero Sport owners who alternate between daily driving and towing or load-carrying duties.
