Rear air bag recommendations?

[Rjhagner]

Hi,

I ordered the airlift loadlifter 500 ultimate air bags for my 1500 but was told by the dealer that installing them would require cutting into the frame, thereby voiding my warranty. They are looking into alternatives but does anyone have a rec for airbags that do not require this?

Thanks in advance! This group always seems to have the answers!

No need to cut into the frame. They have the 5000 for 5th gen specifically. I installed mine two weeks ago.

Thanks for that info. Maybe it is only very recently available. Would you have the part # of the kit?

Not at all. Leaves you wanting more performance too. I feel like it's not worth it if you're paying full price. But I got it for 170 with two filters

Timber groves are great. No cutting very simple install. Takes a couple hours.

Hi what made u do the airbags? Trouble towing?

 

[Willwork4truck]

Even just loads in the bed or a quad hanging off the back, too much squat. Air bags level it up nicely, and thats important at night. These short beds can put payload weight behind the axle thus the leveling issue.

Plus when the trailer isn’t level, it will help fishtail the trailer. You want to tow with a level a trailer.
