Standard-duty coil-insert kit for eligible older-body Ram 1500 applications.
Air Lift 1000 vs 1000HD: Ram 1500 Spring & Compressor Kits
Two Ram 1500 trucks from the same model year can have different rear coil-spring suspensions. Air Lift supplies a standard 1000 spring kit for eligible older-body trucks, heavy-duty 1000HD versions for different Ram 1500 generations, and compressor bundles that include the corresponding air springs. Match the truck's actual body style and suspension before choosing the part number.
Start with the Ram 1500 generation
Ram 1500 Classic / older bodyAir Lift identifies 60818 (standard support), 60818HD (heavy-duty support), and 25818HD (heavy-duty springs with a compressor) for the eligible old-body truck family.
Ram 1500 newer bodyAir Lift's newer 2019–2026 truck family uses 60828HD or the compressor-equipped 25828HD. These are not replacements for a Ram 1500 Classic merely because the model year overlaps.
Inspect the existing coilsNone of these kits fits factory rear air suspension. The 1000HD spring-kit manufacturer also excludes taller aftermarket replacement coils; other model-specific restrictions apply.
New-body exclusions: Air Lift specifically excludes the Ram 1500 TRX and RHO, 2019 Classic, factory air suspension and lifts using taller aftermarket coils from 60828HD. Since 25828HD includes those 60828HD springs, verify the complete combo kit against the same restrictions. A vehicle-year match alone is not proof of fit.
Air Lift 1000 vs 1000HD model chart
Load-leveling ratings are the spring-kit manufacturer's maximum support figures, not an increase to the truck's payload, gross axle weight or GVWR. Combo kits include onboard pressure adjustment; the stand-alone air-spring kits do not contain a compressor.

Common air spring selection questions
What's the difference between 60818 and 60818HD?
Both target eligible older-body Ram 1500 trucks. Standard 60818 supports up to 1,000 lb at 5–35 PSI. Heavy-duty 60818HD supports up to 2,100 lb with a 5–50 PSI working range. Their replacement spring parts are different.
Will 60828HD fit a 2019 Ram 1500 Classic?
No. Air Lift distinguishes the new-body 60828HD kit from the old-body Classic applications. Verify your truck's body style and full suspension configuration in the manufacturer's current fit guide.
Does 25828HD include a compressor and controls?
Yes. It packages the 60828HD heavy-duty spring kit with the LoadController Compact 25850 single-path onboard compressor and in-cab control equipment.
Can these air springs increase the truck's maximum tow rating?
No. Air springs help the existing suspension support and level a load, but they cannot change manufacturer payload, hitch, tire, axle or towing ratings.
Can I use the compressor kit on a Ram TRX?
Do not select 25828HD solely by model year. Its spring portion is 60828HD, which Air Lift explicitly excludes from TRX and RHO applications. Confirm another manufacturer-approved product for your exact truck.
