I have a 2015 ram 3500 with rear air leveling and tow a heavy fifth wheel it works great. Recently I was considering a truck camper for my truck. What concerned me was the absence of aftermarket suspension enhancement for that truck. There are none.
If you have an air leveling ram be sure to not be overloaded with your camper there is nothing that can help you. With a leaf spring suspension you just start adding parts to make it work for you.
And as far as payload on a truck the label in the drivers door gives max payload and each truck is different because of options.
the after market is a good point good and also since I posted this I have learned that the Ram factory air assist system has a overload safety built into the system so if you exceed your GVWR it shuts down the air system I guess leaving you with out the assist of the air bags which could be a problem, more so with a TC than a fifth wheel caring pin weight. I am leaning towards the standard suspension system at this point , Thanks for the replies and help I had the weights from the camper guide for the truck as a big horn buckets seats gas 6.4 2x2
Thanks
