The AirLift 1000 air springs (placed inside the coil springs) raised the front end about 1” when inflated to 50#. And, in doing so... the front SUMO’s no longer touch the front crossmember, thus not really offering any support while RV is driven straight

Also, I needed to add a spacer between the rear SUMO and frame in order for them to provide support.

My rig has nearly 20,000 miles so my next mod will be the Bilstein shocks.
Why did you get the airlift air springs?
