I'm considering adding air bags to my F250. I have a 2013 F250 with the camper package (350 springs and rear sway bar). I weighed my truck and trailer last year. My truck is under all the ratings except GVWR. Our 5th wheel sits level and has a Mor/ryde pin box. The Mor/ryde drastically reduced the chucking but didn't eliminate it completely. I still get a push / pull feeling when travelling over rough roads. When I hookup the trailer my suspension sags to the point the helpers are engaged. I'm considering adding air bags for 3 reasons:
1. Level my truck.
2. Improve the ride.
3. Reduce the push/pull effect from the 5th wheel while travelling rough roads.
A new truck is not an option at this point so this seems to be the most cost effective solution. I'm not sure a F350 would handle any differently anyway. Will I achieve my goal? I've done a couple of searches and get conflicting information.
You will get the same conflicting responses here.
In my case the airbags improved in all three areas you asked about, and I also have the MorRyde ,and I do have a 3500. I have the wireless compressor setup in present truck, but had the compressor setup in previous truck, and both I am able to adjust the air on the fly, which IMO gives you the best ride for the road conditions.
