The Airbag Man Air Suspension Helper Kit (CR5119) fits the Nissan Patrol Y62 (2010-2024) with independent rear coil spring setups and adds up to 180kg of adjustable load support without altering unladen ride height. Two heavy-duty air springs work alongside the factory coils, inflated through a valve you control to match the load — soft for daily driving, firmer for van towing or camper duty. Pair it with our upgraded coil springs if you're carrying a permanent heavy load. Backed by Airbag Man's Australian warranty, in stock now with fitment support from our team.
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 airbag helper kit isn't a spring rate swap — it's an adjustable top-up that lets you dial in extra support only when you need it, which suits Y62 owners running a range of constant accessory loads. Consider your typical rear-end load before setting air pressure: bull bar and winch (front-weighted, less relevant here), rear drawer systems, dual battery setups, water tanks, and van/camper trailer ball weight all add constant rear load. If your accessory load is genuinely permanent and heavy, talk to our team about pairing this kit with heavier-rate rear coil springs rather than relying on air pressure alone.
Fitting is within reach of an experienced DIY installer with basic hand tools, though a professional 4WD suspension fitter is recommended given the bracket positioning around the Y62's independent rear end. Wheel alignment isn't mandatory purely for this airbag kit since it doesn't change ride height, but it's worth checking alignment if you've recently fitted other suspension components. Allow a short bed-in period after fitting to check air line fittings for leaks under load before you tow. If you're also correcting geometry from a lift or heavier springs, pair this kit with control arm upgrades for correct alignment settings.
Airbag Man has designed and manufactured air suspension products in Australia for over 25 years, with kits developed around local towing and load-carrying conditions rather than adapted from overseas fitments. Every Airbag Man kit carries a manufacturer warranty and is supported by our in-house fitment team who can confirm bracket and air line specifics for your Y62 before you order. Tourers, tradespeople and caravan owners running the Y62 rely on this kit to keep the rear end level without a permanent spring rate change — view the full Airbag Man range for other Patrol-compatible options.
This kit suits Y62 Patrol owners who tow caravans or trailers occasionally, carry camping and touring gear on trips, or run a ute-style canopy and drawer setup that adds constant rear weight. It's built for anyone who wants adjustable airbag suspension support rather than a fixed heavier spring, keeping factory ride quality intact when the vehicle is running empty.
In stock in Australia and ready for fast dispatch, with our team on hand to confirm fitment for your Y62 before you buy. Browse our full lift kit range if you're also considering a height increase alongside this load support kit.

Genuine Airbag Man suspension from an authorised Australian dealer.
Yes, the CR5119 Airbag Man kit is designed specifically for the Nissan Patrol Y62 (2010-2024) fitted with independent rear coil springs. It uses vehicle-specific mounting brackets that locate around the factory rear coil spring perches without cutting or drilling. If your Y62 has had other rear suspension modifications, contact our team to confirm bracket clearance before ordering.
This is a load-support airbag kit, not a lift kit — it doesn't raise ride height when the vehicle is unloaded. When inflated, the air springs support up to 180kg of additional rear load, levelling the vehicle under tow or load rather than lifting it permanently. If you want a height increase as well, look at our lift kit range alongside this kit.
The kit includes two Airbag Man air springs, upper and lower mounting brackets, a braided air line kit, a single inflation valve, and all mounting hardware needed for the Y62's independent rear end. Fitting instructions specific to this vehicle are included. A compressor and in-cab gauge kit for on-the-fly adjustment are available separately if you want to add them.
Yes, that's the primary use case — the air springs add up to 180kg of adjustable support to counter rear sag caused by caravan or trailer ball weight. You inflate to suit the load before towing and can deflate for normal unladen driving. Many Y62 owners run this kit specifically to keep the rear end level and headlights correctly aimed while towing.
Not for this kit specifically, since it doesn't change ride height or suspension geometry. Control arm upgrades are more relevant if you're also fitting a lift kit or heavier-rate coil springs to the Y62. If you're combining this airbag kit with other suspension changes, our team can advise whether upgraded control arms are needed.
This airbag helper kit alone doesn't require a wheel alignment because it doesn't alter the Y62's factory ride height or suspension angles. If you've recently fitted a lift kit, new coil springs, or other suspension components alongside this kit, get an alignment done to confirm everything is within spec. Check with your fitter if you're unsure.
This kit uses adjustable air pressure rather than a fixed spring rate, so you set the support level to match your load on the day. If your Y62 carries a genuinely permanent heavy load — such as a fitted canopy and drawer system — talk to our team about pairing this with heavier-rate rear coil springs instead of relying on air pressure alone.
Since this kit doesn't raise ride height when unloaded, it won't create additional tyre clearance on its own. Tyre and wheel clearance for the Y62 is governed by your standard suspension setup or any separate lift kit you've fitted. Speak with our team if you're planning a tyre upgrade alongside this airbag kit.
Airbag Man backs this kit with a manufacturer warranty covering the air springs and included components against manufacturing defects. As an Australian-based supplier, we handle warranty support locally rather than requiring you to deal with an overseas supplier. Keep your proof of purchase and contact our team directly if you have any warranty questions.
Yes — run the air springs near-empty for everyday unladen driving and the Y62 keeps its standard factory ride feel. Only inflate the airbags when you're carrying extra load or towing, then deflate again afterwards. This adjustability is the main advantage over a fixed heavier-rate spring for owners who don't tow every day.
