2012 RAM 3500 rear suspension enhancement
The truck handles great but is sagging when loaded with water. I already have the upper stable loads and don't like air bags. Want to raise it about an inch or two.. Looking at either the Timbrens,...

Why not airbags?
Adjustable, and when plumbed separately they help with sway.
I have had air bags on my past two trucks. I just can't spend $1000 for a good system with on board pump and gauges. I want something I can install that gives me zero issues and trying to stay affordable.
Why not start with a kit that doesn't have control and install it yourself, should be under $310.
Then down the road add the airlift wireless control.

Personally I think the lower stable loads are a poor idea. They will create a bend/pivot point in the spring that they were not designed for. This will create a new stress point on the spring.
I can't help but wonder why they would extend the warranty to the leaf spring if it didn't need it??? It tells me that with heavy use the leaf spring may have issues.
I would go to Timbrens before air bags. After all the head aches no thanks..
