Air Lift Load Lifter 5000 Replacement Air Spring 50290 — Single-Bag Direct-Fit with Hardware

The Air Lift Load Lifter 5000 Replacement Air Spring (part 50290) is a direct-fit replacement bag with mounting hardware and an air fitting to restore your truck, van, or SUV's load-supporting air suspension.

If an original air spring from an Air Lift Load Lifter kit has worn or failed, this replacement bag lets you refresh the system without buying a full kit. Designed to match the dimensions and mounting points of the original kit (compatible with several kit numbers), this unit is built from reinforced rubber and includes the small parts needed to reinstall quickly. It’s intended specifically as a one-bag replacement for common Load Lifter kits so you get reliable ride support with minimal downtime.

How does this replacement air spring fit my existing Load Lifter system?

This 50290 bag is manufactured to the same fit and mounting specification used in select Air Lift Load Lifter 5000 kits, so it installs where your worn bag originally sat. It includes the required mounting hardware and an air fitting to match the original connection points, reducing modification or additional parts needs.

• Direct replacement for kit numbers: 57213, 57272, 57275, 57286
• Includes mounting studs, retaining components, and air fitting
• Designed to match OEM bolt patterns and clearance profiles

What materials and construction features ensure long life?

The air spring uses a durable rubber compound reinforced with synthetic fabric, balancing flexibility and abrasion resistance under load. This construction helps the bag withstand repeated inflation cycles, road debris, and exposure to typical driving conditions when properly installed and maintained.

• Sturdy rubber body for resilience and sealing
• Synthetic fabric reinforcement to resist stretching and wear
• Corrosion-resistant mounting hardware included for secure attachment

What comes in the box and what is not included?

You receive one replacement air spring plus the necessary mounting hardware and an air fitting to connect to your existing valve or airline. This is a single-bag replacement and not a complete dual-bag kit—buy a full kit only if you need multiple components, compressor, or an inflation system.

• Included: one air spring, mounting hardware, and one air fitting
• Not included: second bag, compressor, airlines, or manifold (unless purchasing a full kit)
• 1 Year limited warranty from Air Lift on manufacturing defects

How difficult is installation and what tools should I expect to use?

Installation is straightforward for someone comfortable with basic suspension work and hand tools; however, it may be best performed by a mechanic if you lack experience. Because this unit is a direct replacement, you’ll typically reuse the original mounting points and follow the kit-specific installation sequence for safe reassembly.

• Typical tools: sockets/wrench set, torque wrench, jack and stands
• Follow vehicle- and kit-specific torque specs during reinstallation
• Professional installation recommended if you’re unfamiliar with suspension components

Who is this for: The Air Lift Load Lifter 5000 Replacement Air Spring 50290 is aimed at truck, van, and SUV owners who already have an Air Lift Load Lifter kit installed and need to replace a single worn or damaged bag. It’s ideal for customers who want a cost-effective repair that restores load support without replacing an entire system. Choose this part when your vehicle’s existing air suspension hardware is intact and you only require the exact-fit replacement bag, backed by Air Lift’s materials and a one-year warranty.
