Wireless Airlift controller
Looking to get a set of Airlift loadlifter 5000 airbags for my 8" lifted truck. Anybody have experience with the wireless controller system? Or any thoughts? Also i have about 11" from frame to top of leaf spring will i need spacers for the bags to fit right?

The thing about the wireless system, is what happens if you lose the remote or something breaks. Are there provisions to manually fill the bags. Im sure you could rig something up.

Meant to install it under the 07 (since I would acutally use it on there), just never had a chance and I think I sold it in the fall as I left it at my buddy's shop and he couldn't find his old setup to install on a tow truck so I told him to use mine.
9gallon tank was going to be a little tight to squeeze under the 07 anyway.

If anyone cares to know I talked to both firestone and airlift today. For a regular setup there needs to be about 8" between bottom of frame to top of leaf springs. I have 11" so i will be purchasing a spacer to make up the difference. Airlift sells a lock n lift system that uses multiple spacer that you can lock together to achieve your desired height. However im looking at firestones spacers, they are a single piece, im thinking they will be stronger but who knows.
