Any reason to upgrade components for a Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL?

Bought a Air Lift LoadLifter 7500XL on Black Friday, with a plan to install it next week. Has anyone bought one for their HD and replaced the airlines and fittings with more commercial graded parts? I'd like to install this only once without a need to replace any cheaper parts later down the road. Not sure if it's even needed, as my research into the company was overwhelmingly positive.

I ran a second hand airlift on my 04 for 16 years. Only after the roll plates started to rust and deform, did I replace. Went with the stainless kit. Sold the truck a year later.

I actually ordered the wrong kit and called airlift to buy just the stainless kit. I think he charged me 75 and all needed parts and then some were included.

The parts are commercial grade really as its the same air line used on transports the only thing different is the compression fittings are sometimes used instead of the push to connect fittings
 
Thanks for the speedy replies! I will install it "out of the box".

Cheers!
 
I'm on the other side of the fence here. If it were me, I'd upgrade to the stainless lines now. I doubt you'd have any issues with the standard lines, but as you mentioned not ever wanting to have to replace, I'd do it the first time.

Did you upgrade your AirLift 5000?
 
Also did the ultimate plus kit with the stainless braided lines. I am in the process of replacing the swivel an fittings on top of the bags due to leaks.. going with a non swivel type an fitting.other than that I'm happy with the setup. Never used the push connect airlines with it so cant speak to the quality.
