Yes, the Air Lift RIDE CONTROL KIT 59533 (Part #BBCG59533) is designed to fit the 2015-2026 Chevrolet Colorado.
The Air Lift RIDE CONTROL KIT 59533 (Part #BBCG59533) fits 2015-2026 Chevrolet Colorado models. The 2026 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
The Air Lift RIDE CONTROL KIT 59533 (Part #BBCG59533) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes. Kit 59533 is designed for both 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive versions of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon.
The RideControl kit provides up to 2,000 pounds (907 kg) of load-leveling support. Each sleeve is rated at a maximum of 100 PSI (7 BAR).
RideControl air springs are designed and manufactured like a tire, with layers of rubber and cords that control the bag's growth and funnel it into one direction. The bags do not require a coil spring for control. The kit uses a sleeve-style air bag design.
Required tools include: 1/2", 9/16" and 3/4" open-end or box wrenches; adjustable wrench; safety glasses; ratchet with 3/8", 9/16" and 1/2" deep well sockets; 5/16" drill bit (very sharp); heavy-duty drill; torque wrench; floor jack; and two safety stands.
The kit includes: 2 upper brackets (07800), 1 left-hand lower bracket (03909), 1 right-hand lower bracket (03858), 2 air springs (58482), 2 flathead screws 1/2" (17178), 2 nylon jam nuts 3/4" (18454), 2 90-degree swivel fittings (21837), 2 clamp bars (01426), 2 U-bolts (10469), 4 self-tapping screws 3/8" (17129), 4 nylon lock nuts 3/8" (18435), 4 flat washers 3/8" (18444), 1 air line assembly (20086), 6 zip ties (10466), 2 valve caps (21230), 2 flat washers 5/16" (18501), 2 rubber washers (21234), 2 star washers (18411), 4 hex nuts 5/16" (21233), and 1 heat shield kit (34924).
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Contact Air Lift customer service at (800) 248-0892 for clarification on this requirement.
The axle must be in the normal ride height position, as if the wheels were on and the truck was sitting in a parking lot. If using a frame contact hoist, lower the vehicle so the axle is at this normal position before installation.
Tighten the fittings one-and-a-half turns past finger-tight.
Use no more than 4 lb.-ft. (5 Nm) to seat the bracket to the air spring. Do not over-tighten.
Tighten the lower bracket screw to no more than 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm).
Torque the U-bolt hardware (3/8" flat washers and nylon lock nuts) to 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm).
Torque the 3/8" self-tapping screws to 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm).
Yes. Two 5/16" holes must be drilled through the frame for each side to mount the upper bracket. The manual specifies using a center-punch as a template and a very sharp 5/16" drill bit with a heavy-duty drill.
Only if necessary. The manual states to choose the locations for the Schrader valves and drill a 5/16" (8 mm) hole if necessary. Suggested locations include inside the fuel tank filler door, inside rear wheel wells, or the license plate or rear bumper area.
The upper bracket and lower bracket must be parallel to each other and perpendicular to each other. The fittings should point in the opposite direction of the tab or "finger" on the lower bracket.
The short leg of the upper bracket must be in contact with the bottom of the frame rail.
For the right-side assembly, the fitting points must be in the opposite direction as the left-side assembly. This ensures proper clearance and alignment on each side of the vehicle.
Cut the air line in half using clean, square cuts with a razor blade or hose cutter. Do not use scissors or wire cutters.
Use zip ties to secure the air line to fixed points along the chassis. Do not pinch or kink the air line. Leave at least 2" (51 mm) of slack in the air line to allow for any movement that might pull on the air line. The minimum bend radius for the air line is 1" (25 mm).
Keep at least 6" (152 mm) of clearance between all air lines and the exhaust system. Avoid sharp bends and edges.
Attach the metal heat shield to the exhaust where it is closest to the air spring. Slide the air line thermal sleeve over the air line and place it where the air line is closest to the exhaust. Maintain at least 1/2" (13 mm) of dead air space between the shield and exhaust.
The maximum air pressure is 100 PSI (7 BAR). Never inflate beyond this pressure.
The minimum recommended pressure is 5 PSI (0.34 BAR). Always maintain normal ride height and never allow pressure to drop below this minimum.
No. For safety and to prevent possible damage to the vehicle, do not exceed the maximum gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) or payload rating as indicated by the vehicle manufacturer. The air springs support load but do not increase the vehicle's weight capacity.
Compressed air can cause injury and damage to the vehicle and parts if not handled properly. Do not try to inflate the air springs until they have been properly secured to the vehicle.
Inflate the air springs to 40-60 PSI (2.8-4.1 BAR) and make sure there is at least 1/2" (13 mm) clearance from anything that might rub against each sleeve. Be sure to check the tire, brakes, frame, shock absorbers and brake cables.
Inflate the air springs to 40-60 PSI (2.8-4.1 BAR) and check all connections for leaks. All leaks must be eliminated before the vehicle is road tested.
Be sure there is sufficient clearance from heat sources, at least 6" (152 mm) for air springs and air lines. If a heat shield was included in the kit, install it. If there is no heat shield but one is required, call Air Lift customer service at (800) 248-0892.
Recheck all bolts for proper torque after installation.
After passing the clearance, leak, heat and fastener tests, road test the vehicle. Inflate the springs to recommended driving pressures. Drive the vehicle 10 miles (16 km) and recheck for clearance, loose fasteners and air leaks.
Check air pressure weekly.
If the system develops an air leak, use a soapy water solution to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core before deflating and removing the air spring.
Air Lift Company provides a limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser of its load support products, that the products will be free from defects in workmanship and materials when used on cars and trucks as specified by Air Lift Company and under normal operating conditions. For the full Limited Warranty and Return Policy details, visit www.airliftcompany.com/warranty or contact customer service at (800) 248-0892.

Yes, kit 59533 is designed for both 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon trucks.
Yes. A torque wrench is required. Multiple fasteners must be torqued to specific values: upper bracket to 4 lb.-ft. (5 Nm), lower bracket screw to 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm), U-bolt hardware to 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm), and frame screws to 15 lb.-ft. (20 Nm).
Yes. Two 5/16" holes must be drilled through the frame on each side for the upper bracket. A heavy-duty drill with a very sharp 5/16" bit is required.
Maximum pressure is 100 PSI (7 BAR). Never inflate beyond this limit. Minimum recommended pressure is 5 PSI (0.34 BAR).
Keep at least 6" (152 mm) of clearance between all air lines and the exhaust system. Avoid sharp bends and edges. Use a heat shield and thermal sleeve where the air line is closest to the exhaust.
Inflate the air springs to 40-60 PSI (2.8-4.1 BAR) and check for at least 1/2" (13 mm) clearance from tires, brakes, frame, shock absorbers and brake cables. Then perform a leak test, heat test, fastener test, and finally a 10-mile road test.
Use a soapy water solution to check all air line connections and the inflation valve core. This will reveal the location of any leaks before deflating and removing the air spring.
