The pressurized air used in 2014-2017 Silverado air ride suspension parts and kits has some big advantages to offer – it lessens the number of moving parts to wear out, adds thousands of pounds of carrying capacity (up to 5,000-6,000), and can be deflated when not in use. American Trucks carries the full kits needed to install this upgrade, which come with all parts, components, and instructions that assure a successful attachment. The compressed air in these suspension systems makes them supremely easy to adjust – you can vary the amount of lift they provide by changing the psi of the air inside them, and even deflate them completely when they’re not currently serving any function. There are control systems you can use to adjust the inflation of the springs, too – some of them affecting both springs at once, and others enabling giving a different pressure to each side for asymmetrical loads.

What Is a 2014-2018 Chevy Silverado Air Suspension Kit?
Air suspension kits are innovative systems that rely on compressed air and input from sensors to adjust ride quality. While it may sound complicated at first, they achieve the same goal as leaf springs or other suspension parts – just with air instead. It all begins with the compressor, which connects to your truck’s electrical system. Once the system has power, the compressor supplies air to rubber bags that function as bellows that inflate and deflate based on input from sensors. This all happens without user input, but you can manually adjust the ride height with most systems, which allows you to raise or lower your suspension when you need to. For example, airbags for your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 can be adjusted to get you the best fuel economy on highways, but give you a lift for off-roading.
Benefits of 2014-2018 Chevy Silverado Air Suspension Kits?
Leaf springs and other suspension parts work great, but there are some benefits you'll never experience until you ride on an air suspension. They're effortlessly smooth, and you won't have to feel every bit of the road anymore, especially if you raise your truck a few inches. The sensors ensure that the right amount of air is in each bag to maximize contact with the road. Another benefit of an air suspension that you can't get with springs is the amount of control you have. Want to lower it down when you're driving on the highway to save on fuel? No problem. Plan on going to a local Cars and Coffee and want to line up with the other big lifted trucks? Once you park you can raise the suspension back up. This is also handy for fitting larger wheels and tires, along with making sure you have enough space for off-roading on uneven terrain. One of the more underrated benefits of an air suspension is that it can keep your suspension level when you’re towing, which reduces sway on the road. This even comes in handy if you have tools or cargo in the bed that moves around because the system will adjust automatically. It doesn't matter if you need specific 2017 Chevy Silverado airbags for your rear suspension, or if you want a full lift kit, our sales techs are ready to help.
