Could someone convince me that air bags somehow increase your trucks payload?
No, because they do not increase any of the capacities of the truck. They may provide a little softer ride and make the truck level, but that's it. They do not transfer any weight back to the front axle. As much as has been posted here by some really knowledgeable guys, I'm amazed that anyone still even thinks that. Airbags do affect your WD and you have to go back and readjust, but it's because raising the rear of the truck changes the angle of the hitch tilt, thus changing the tension on the WD bars.
