Springs or Bags
I know this has been reviewed before, I have read through the comparisons between adding air bags vs adding springs. I'm hoping to get some advise here.
We just picked up a 2015 2500 GMC denali duramax along with a Open Range 308BHS, hitch is Equalizer 4 point 14k. We mostly dry camp, so I have 3 Trojan T1275 batteries, 80lbs or so each. I haven't gotten a chance to scale it yet, I moved the bars up one notch from how the dealer installed it, and now the truck sits level (within 1/4") front to back- the back drops 3", front is almost unchanged. For now, I estimate tongue weight is 1200lbs.
The back end squats more than I thought, and thinking of either installing air bags, or adding a spring. I have read mixed reviews on both. I'm hoping to hear from folks with either experience, and what brand/product used (like firestone, etc) pros/cons.
I'm in no hurry as it tows "ok". I'm leaning toward adding a spring, but open. Mostly concerned with ride quality.
Thanks
