Technically, No. When fitting air bags you remove the bump stops. Running 5PSI in the air bags allows them to act as bump stops.
To Stop bottoming out with the benefit of Spring/Shock longevity.
Yes. Thor Airbag Suspension kits are designed to provide adjustable rear suspension support when towing or carrying additional loads. Correctly adjusted airbags can help bring a loaded vehicle back towards its normal ride height, reduce rear-end sag and improve stability and handling. The correct setup and pressure will depend on the vehicle, load and towing application.
No. Load-assist airbags do not automatically increase the manufacturer's GVM, GCM or towing capacity. They assist the existing suspension in managing load and maintaining ride height, but the vehicle must still remain within its applicable vehicle, axle and towing limits.
The correct pressure depends on the vehicle and the load being carried. Thor recommends starting around 30 psi and adjusting the pressure for ride comfort and vehicle levelling. Thor states a maximum pressure of 150 psi for its Load Assist airbags and recommends maintaining approximately 5 psi on rough roads to help prevent the bellows from bottoming out. Always follow the instructions supplied for the specific kit fitted to your vehicle.
The correct kit depends on your vehicle's make, model, year and suspension configuration, including whether it is standard height or has raised suspension. Thor offers airbag suspension solutions across many popular Australian 4WDs, utes and vans, so vehicle details should be confirmed before ordering.
Many Thor load-assist kits are designed as bolt-on installations and are supplied with installation guidance. Thor also provides installation information and video support. Installation requirements vary by vehicle, so the instructions for the specific kit should always be followed; professional installation is a sensible option where the customer isn't confident with suspension work.
It’s important to purchase the springs, shock absorbers or a complete kit that will actually improve your vehicle
