I thought you asked about the right gear for the truck air bags, sway bars etc. I must have misread your post. It seems you are just telling us what you are GOING to do.
Gotcha... I try to only ask questions if my research fails me and hate it when someone asks a question that has been asked and answered hundreds of times. Based on many many hours of research here and other forums I think I have figured out what I'm going to install on the truck to make it as safe as possible before I install the camper. While there are a lot of options out there it seems like what will work best for my intended setup is a set of firestone air bags and hellwig sway bar. I installed a hellwig on my excursion and it has been rock solid so that was an easy one for me. The firestone air bags also have been the leader in that area from what I've read so I feel pretty good about going with them along with a airlift compressor.
A lot of what I've read has also been along the unifence/biesemeyer debate (tablesaw fences for woodworking that caused many a heated forum debate on which was best and normally the same price) for a lot of things that come down to personal preference but both work extremely well and you can't go wrong with either one. I have a unifence because it was $100 cheaper for the particular deal I got on the saw and love it... had the biesemeyer been cheaper I'm sure I would love it too. The seller is throwing in a happijac system that fits my truck so while I would prefer the torklift if buying new I'm having a hard time justifying the additional expense. I don't mind spending money when necessary but hate to spend if I don't have to.
