Most comfortable riding
Which truck is the most comfortable when loaded with a heavy camper?
Forum Discussion
I have a 2nd Gen 1999 Dodge one ton dually, same truck as the 2001.
Mine rides GREAT, because I put on a Kelderman air ride rear suspension kit.
This is not your standard overload airbags. This replaces the real leaf spring hangers with a large hinged bracket that has airbags. The truck's springs aren't directly attached to the frame at the rear, they float on the air bags. It takes a lot of harshness out of the ride.
I don't care how new a truck is, if it has leaf springs, it has leaf springs. There's no new technology magic, they are what they are.
This (the Kelderman) is better, and you don't have to buy a new truck to get it.
I also have the normal overload airbags because the Kelderman isn't a load capacity increaser, it's a ride-smoother. In fact it eliminates the factory overload springs.
I have zero problems carrying a 4000 pound camper while towing a 10,000 pound trailer. (A few engine and transmission modifications help too).
