" Rear air bags help level a loaded truck out when it is at or over its capacity to safely handle a load. They do not increade a trucks load carrying capacity."
On paper I would agree. Real world they do increase your capacity.
Example my 15 RAM with factory rear air ride only has two springs that run full length on each side and two that run from the axle forward. Hardly enough to carry 9,750# but with the air bags/springs it will carry that much weight.
