I like the idea about air suspension Dodge offers for rear and reviews are good so far.
We have been pleased so far although...
1. You can't fit a sway bar on the trucks fitted with factory air. I contacted Helwig and they have no plans at this time to develop one. The sway is a bit better than our 2004 ram 3500 with the same camper, but it would be nice to further reduce it. I might design my own.
2. The stock rear shocks seem to be shot after 15,000 miles. Passenger side showing a leak. In all fairness these are all miles with our camper on and a couple thousand of those on dirt roads in Alaska. Not a big deal, I was going to replace them anyway.
3. There is no way (that I am aware of) to inflate the bags individually. This became apparent with our AF1150 which is heavier on the slide side. In the old truck I would just add more air on that side.
The air bags look a lot like standard aftermarket units. If I were to do it over I would have ordered the truck with the standard heavier rear springs that would allow stable loads, sway bar and aftermarket airbags (if needed)
