Tired of truck sag, sway, and bottoming out? Say goodbye to these issues with Pacbrake's ALPHA HD PRO! These air bags/air helper springs, complete with Jounce Bumpers/Bump Stops, have 1 - inch - thick corrosion - resistant end caps and 20 support wires for maximum strength and durability.
The kit has a bouncy polyurethane bumper inside the bag to prevent damages from bottoming out. It's great for those who want an internal bumper for peace of mind and enjoy a comfortable ride without air when not towing.
Customers can choose to buy a Pacbrake air suspension kit with or without an in - bag bump stop.
Why Pacbrake added a bump stop to their bags
Peace of mind. Customers want a bump stop to avoid bottoming out due to loss of air bag pressure, a rare event that could damage the air bags or the truck frame. Think of it as an 'insurance policy' against bottoming out.
An extra benefit is that you can run these air bags at 0 psi when unloaded for a better ride.
Are bump stops necessary?
No! For those who need maximum travel in their air bags, like raising and lowering the rear end to pick up trailers or boats, or for off - roading, air bags without bump stops are recommended. Consider the HP100187 ALPHA HD air bag.
