The Airbag Man Full Air Suspension Kit is built for the Dodge Ram 1500 and restores level ride height when you're towing a caravan, hauling a boat, or loading the tray. Air pressure is adjustable from empty up to 80 PSI per bag, so you set exactly the support needed for the load on board and back it off for an unladen ride. Every airbag carries a lifetime warranty, and the kit ships complete with nylon air lines and fittings from our Australian stock. Browse the full airbag suspension range or confirm your exact fitment before ordering.

Start low and add pressure in small steps until the rear sits level under your typical towing or payload weight, then note that setting for future loads. Constant accessory loads that push you toward the higher end of the 0-80 PSI range include a loaded caravan or boat trailer on the tow ball, a heavy canopy or tray load, a bullbar and winch up front, or a fitted dual battery and long-range fuel tank. If you're carrying less than a full load day to day, drop the pressure back down rather than leaving the bags maxed out at all times.
Fitment uses the supplied application-specific brackets and hardware, and most installers complete the job in a few hours with common hand tools. We recommend professional or experienced DIY installation given the air line routing and pressure testing involved. A wheel alignment check is good practice after fitment, particularly if ride height changes noticeably once the bags are pressurised under load. If you're also chasing a lifted stance rather than just load correction, pair this kit with our control arm upgrades and a dedicated lift kit.
Airbag Man has supplied load-levelling airbag kits to Australian tradespeople and tourers for over 25 years, with product dispatched from local stock rather than shipped in on demand. Every kit carries a lifetime warranty on the airbags, backed by our team's fitment support if you're unsure which bracket kit or pressure range suits your setup. You can view the full Airbag Man range to compare this kit against other load-assist and suspension options.
This kit suits Ram 1500 owners who regularly tow a caravan or boat and need the rear end to sit level rather than sagging under tow ball weight. It also suits tradespeople running a loaded tray or canopy who need consistent ride height and headlight aim regardless of payload. If load carrying is your main issue rather than a permanent lifted look, airbag suspension is the more targeted fix than a full spring and shock replacement.

The Airbag Man Full Air Suspension Kit is application-specific to the Dodge Ram 1500, but bracket fitment can vary depending on whether your build has leaf or coil rear suspension. Confirm your build date and rear suspension type with our team before ordering. You can also use our parts finder for the Ram 1500 to check compatible parts. Getting this confirmed up front avoids any bracket mismatch on install day.
This is a load-levelling airbag kit, not a fixed lift kit, so it doesn't raise your unladen ride height in the way a spring or coil upgrade does. Instead, air pressure is adjustable from empty up to 80 PSI per bag, and you add pressure to counter sag once a load or trailer is on. Unladen, you can run the bags with little or no air so the factory ride height and feel are largely unchanged. If you want a permanent height increase as well, look at our dedicated lift kit range.
The kit includes front and rear Airbag Man air springs, application-specific mounting brackets and hardware, a nylon air line kit, push-to-connect fittings, and QR-code accessible installation instructions. It does not include an in-cab gauge or on-board compressor unless specifically listed on this product page. Everything supplied is sized for the Dodge Ram 1500 fitment.
Yes, this is exactly what the kit is designed for. Adding air pressure to the rear bags counters the tow ball weight of a caravan or boat trailer, keeping the rear end level instead of sagging. A level ride height also helps keep headlight aim and brake bias closer to normal when towing.
No, control arm upgrades aren't required for this airbag kit since it works within your existing suspension geometry rather than changing ride height at the pivot points. Control arm upgrades are more relevant if you're also fitting a lift kit and need corrected alignment angles at height. If you're planning both, our control arm range is worth a look.
A wheel alignment check is good practice after any suspension work, though this kit typically doesn't change static ride height the way a spring or coil lift does. If you notice a height change once the bags are pressurised under regular load, it's worth having the alignment checked at that setting. Our team can advise based on how you're running the pressures day to day.
Yes, that's the point of the system — air pressure is adjustable from empty up to 80 PSI per bag so you can dial in the right support for whatever load you're carrying that day. Heavier tow ball weights or tray loads need more pressure, while unladen driving needs little to none. There's no fixed spring rate to select since the airbags do that job across the full range.
Not on their own — since this kit doesn't raise unladen ride height, it won't create the extra clearance needed for larger tyres the way a lift kit does. If bigger tyres are the goal, you'll want a dedicated lift kit alongside or instead of this airbag kit. Feel free to ask our team about combining the two if you want both load levelling and more clearance.
The airbags themselves carry a lifetime warranty from Airbag Man, a genuine manufacturer term rather than a marketing figure. Fitting hardware and air lines are covered under standard supplier warranty terms. If anything is unclear, contact our team and we'll confirm the specifics for your order.
Yes, you can run the bags with minimal or no pressure for unladen daily driving so the factory ride feel is largely unaffected. When you hitch up a trailer or load the tray, you simply add air to bring the rear level again. This flexibility is the main advantage over a fixed heavy-duty spring that's stiff all the time.
