Product Description
The AIR LIFT 57340 LoadLifter 5000 Air Spring Kit is the ultimate suspension upgrade for the 2000-2005 Ford Excursion 4WD, delivering serious load support for heavy towing and hauling applications. Designed for Powerstroke diesel SUVs and work vehicles, this heavy-duty air suspension system provides up to 5,000 pounds of load-leveling capacity, eliminating rear squat, trailer sway, and unstable handling when carrying heavy payloads.
The LoadLifter 5000 system installs between the frame and rear leaf springs to provide adjustable support from 5-100 PSI. This allows drivers to precisely tune suspension firmness depending on load weight, maintaining factory ride height and improving braking performance and vehicle control.
Built with reinforced 2-ply fabric air springs and corrosion-resistant brackets, the AIR LIFT 57340 is engineered for long-term durability under extreme towing conditions. The kit includes air springs, brackets, air lines, fittings, and mounting hardware for a complete suspension support upgrade.
