Go!
I tried 50psi in the bags but got too much rebound on bridges. I think the factory helper springs where engaging on the bumps. Started upping pressure. At 70 psi in the bags truck rides smooth. I also had to upgrade rear shocks. Factory shocks just couldn't handle the rebounds on bridges after 40k miles

Thanks guys, you I thought about this for a while and even though I have enough payload I just decided that I wanted to install them. I give me a more better stability ride, I only had about 2 1/2 sag which is nomal I believe ,so I am riding level but their times where it seem like my rear is a little low but anyway maybe it's just me I wanted to be able to pump them up a little more.

I don't think that I need to pump the air too much, maybe 25-25 psi so what I need to do or would like to do is to go out to my 5th wheel and see.


And that's not the only thing, I have a gooseneck ball hitch in my bed sometimes I can hook up a gooseneck trailer and if I need to I can use my airbags I will have them.

Sounds good. I hope they make for a more stable ride. I have my doubts, but hoping I can go without bags or anything on my 3500. Otherwise, (weight police close your ears) what’s the point of going from 3/4 to 1 ton SRW. I’ll hook up this week. We’ll see. I saved my sumo springs from the last truck just in case.

Let us know how it performs.

Yes, I had the wireless 72000 remote controller setting around the house from my other truck so to keep them for sitting around I said why not use them so I bought the bag and use my controller.
