Rear air ride

[Rickyrocket]

Has anyone replaced the coil springs with air bags. I want my truck to ride level and smooth.

I mean when towing a travel trailer.

Lot of people put helper bags on.

Tell us what truck you have. 1500 or 2500/3500?

A 1500 big horn crew, I was looking to see if anyone had replaced the rear coils with air bag type of suspension. I pull a 26' travel trailer that currently weights 6600 loaded. I use a blue ox wdh, it handles fine but the wife doesn't like the bounce feel it gets on some roads.

You don't need to replace the springs unless you absolutely want to. I think Firestone makes a kit to do that. Many people use helper springs (I do), and they range anywhere from cheap (Air lift bags inside the coils) to expensive (Timber Grove standalone bags). I personally use Timber Grove bags with an Air lift Wireless One compressor.
