I had airbags on my Tundra. It needed a LOT of help with our old fiver and the bags worked really well. Onboard aircompressor was REALLY loud but worked well. If I used them again I'd probably just air them up with an air hose.
Timbrens. Our Dodge needed a bit of help with the new fiver so I installed Timbrens. They are too easy. Four bolts without even needing to jack up the truck or remove the wheels (for my truck, YMMV).
The Timbrens are usually not noticed at all. But....when riding without a load and you hit one of those big 'whoops' bumps you will feel when the axle hits the overloads.
So, if you want a perfectly stock ride without the load, go with the airbags. If you want simple...and save money...get the Timbrens.
