Builders Series Shocks
Designed for advanced builders in the lowered truck, hot rod, and exotic vehicle markets — the all new Air Lift Performance Builders Series now offers expanded versatility to specialty and customized builds.
Build NowTotal Customization
The Builders Series Shocks offer 36 different applications. Each features 30-way adjustable damping along with unique air spring and mounting options for maximum customization.
Bellow vs Sleeve
The Builders Series features three air spring options: a sleeve-style air spring, a compact bellows-style air spring for tighter builds, and a standard bellows-style air spring for heavier builds.
Perfect for the rear of the vehicle, our sleeve style air springs feature a max diameter of 5.1" and a max load capacity of 1,222 lbs. at 100 PSI, which ensures a smooth and comfortable ride.
Our compact option features a max diameter of 5.5" and a max load capacity of up to 1,709 lbs. at 100 PSI to support the front or rear end of most vehicles when clearance AND load are of equal concern.
When weight matters most, our standard option features a max diameter of 6.5" and a max load capacity of up to 2,016 lbs. at 100 PSI to support the front end of most vehicles.
