The Airbag Man High Pressure Helper Kit fits the Jeep Gladiator JT (2018-On) and uses double-pressure airbag technology to level out front-end sag around the factory coil springs. Built for standard-height or 2" lifted Gladiators, it counters the weight of bull bars, winches and heavy front accessories without replacing your existing coil springs. Each kit includes a pair of high-pressure airbags, brass fittings and mounting hardware, backed by a lifetime manufacturer's warranty. It's a practical way to firm up a sagging front end and steady the ride without a full spring swap.

Choosing the right high-pressure airbag for your Gladiator JT comes down to ride height and the weight sitting on the front axle. If your vehicle is still at standard ride height, order the standard-height part number; if you've already fitted a 2" front lift, you need the lifted-height version so the airbag sits correctly in the coil.
Common front-end additions that affect selection include steel bull bars, winches, auxiliary batteries mounted forward, and heavy-duty bumpers. Tell our fitment team what's fitted (or planned) and your current ride height so we can confirm the correct part number for CR5169HP or CR5170HP.
This kit can be fitted by an experienced DIY installer with basic hand tools, though we recommend a suspension workshop familiar with coil-sprung Jeep front ends if you're not confident working around the coil spring and lower control arm. A wheel alignment check is a good idea after fitment, particularly if the airbags are being run at higher pressure to correct sag, as ride height changes can affect front camber and toe. Allow the airbags to settle over the first 500km of driving and recheck pressures once loaded with your typical accessories. Consider pairing the kit with upgraded control arm upgrades if you've also fitted a front lift, to keep suspension geometry within a sensible range.
Airbag Man has built its air suspension range specifically for Australian conditions, with load-levelling kits designed around coil, leaf and airbag combinations across popular 4WD and dual-cab platforms. This High Pressure Helper Kit for the Gladiator JT carries a lifetime manufacturer's warranty on the airbags, giving buyers a genuine long-term backing rather than a short trial period. Tradespeople and tourers running heavy front accessories rely on the brand to keep front-end sag in check without swapping out factory coil springs — view the full Airbag Man range for other Gladiator options.
This kit suits Gladiator JT owners running a front bull bar, winch or auxiliary lighting setup who notice the front end sitting low under that extra weight. It also works well for tourers who load the front tray or bed with recovery gear and want adjustable support rather than a fixed heavier spring. If you're carrying variable loads regularly, browse our broader airbag suspension range to compare front and rear options.
This Airbag Man Helper Kit is in stock in Australia and ships fast from local stock. Our team can confirm the correct part number for your Gladiator JT's ride height before you order — browse our full lift kit range or get in touch for fitment advice.

Yes, this kit is built specifically for the Jeep Gladiator JT from 2018 onward, fitting around the factory front coil springs. There are two part numbers within this SKU — one for standard ride height and one for vehicles already sitting on a 2" lifted front suspension. Tell us your current ride height and any front accessories fitted, and our team will confirm the correct airbag for your JT before you order.
This is a load-levelling helper kit, not a lift kit — it doesn't raise your Gladiator JT on its own. It's designed to sit around the existing front coil spring and firm up support that's been lost to sag from bull bars, winches or heavy accessories. If you want an actual height increase, pair it with a dedicated front coil upgrade from our coil springs range.
The kit includes a pair of Airbag Man High Pressure Coil Helper Airbags for the front axle, brass push-lock air fittings, mounting brackets and retaining hardware, protective sleeves, and fitting instructions. It does not include a remote air line kit, rear leaf springs, shocks or control arms — those are sold separately if needed.
Yes, it's a common fitment for Gladiator JT owners towing campers or box trailers where the front end compresses under load. Raising the airbag pressure firms up front-end support and helps counter squat and sag caused by towball download and hitch-mounted accessories. It works alongside your factory coil rather than replacing the spring rate outright.
Not necessarily for this helper kit alone, since it doesn't change ride height on its own. If you've also fitted a 2" front lift alongside this kit, upgraded control arm upgrades can help correct suspension geometry and CV joint angles at the raised height. Ask our team for specific advice based on your current setup.
We recommend a wheel alignment check after fitting, especially if the airbags are run at higher pressure to correct front-end sag. Changes in ride height and load distribution can shift front camber and toe slightly. It's a quick check that protects tyre wear and keeps steering feel consistent.
This kit doesn't have a spring rate in the traditional sense — airbag pressure is adjustable by the driver instead of being fixed like a coil or leaf spring. You select the correct part number (standard height or 2" lifted) at purchase, then adjust air pressure to suit your current front-end load. This gives more flexibility than a fixed-rate spring for variable accessory weight.
Because this kit doesn't add ride height on its own, tyre clearance won't change from fitting the helper airbags alone. If you're running or planning a 2" front lift on your Gladiator JT for larger tyres, this high-pressure kit is available in a lifted-height version to suit that setup. Speak with our team about total tyre and lift combinations for your JT.
Airbag Man backs this High Pressure Helper Kit with a lifetime manufacturer's warranty against manufacturing defects on the airbags. We handle warranty support locally through 4WD Suspension, so you're dealing with an Australian team rather than an overseas supplier. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, plenty of Gladiator JT owners run these airbags year-round and simply adjust pressure to suit whatever load is on the front end that day. At lower pressure with no extra load, the ride stays close to factory feel; airing up firms things up when you're carrying gear or towing. It's a flexible setup for daily driving through to loaded touring trips.
