AIR BAGS vs SPRINGS vs COIL AIR BAGS I THINK BUT NOT SURE OF THE PROPER TERM 2020 RAM LARAMIE 1500 PROJECT

[RAM REAPER MAN]

While I'm fooling with my rear suspension I'm playing with the idea of air bags or spring upgrade.
I've never used or installed the coil spring air type bags but I have a lot of experience with springs, leaf springs, struts, and normal air bags.
I've got a 2020 Laramie with off road package. I don't think that has anything to do with suspension.
I don't want any sagging when towing or hauling. I hate the way it looks and drives.
What are the pros and cons of each and what would you recommend? Maybe Rebel springs

• Springs:
  • When not towing, the ride can be rough due to much heavier spring rate and no weight
• Bags in springs:
  • When not towing, deflate the bags and your ride will be the same
  • when towing, inflate the bags to "support" the weight.
  • Retains the ride quality when empty and supports the rear end when towing. Best of both worlds
  • The only downside is it can be a pain in the rear to install.
• Bags:
  • Not sure since no personal experience.

Rebel springs are the same as your off road package springs.
Perhaps look into load distribution hitch?

Timber Grove bags are the way to go. Solid, no cutting, just pull your bump stops out and bolt them in. The ride is just slightly rougher than stock because you need to keep some pressure in them, but it still rides better than a leaf spring truck.

Or a WDH. I got my bags because I haul heavy in the bed more often than I tow.

Many seem to use the Airlift 1000HD bags that go inside the coils.

Another possible option are upgraded coils. Tuftruk made for the 4th Gen and I believe there is another brand for the 5th Gen.
