My F250 carried my 4000 lb Arctic Fox 811 just fine with upper and lower StableLoads. I needed the Firestone airbags at 40-50 PSI to compensate for the additional 1000 lbs of trailer tongue weight. Otherwise I did not need bags and kept them at 5 PSI. If I used airbags again, I would choose a model with internal bump stop so I did not have to worry about minimum air pressure. I did not have in cab air to keep them inflated but carry a high pressure low volume compressor I can hook up.
The 5500 has not needed anything yet. Even with the 60-gallon fresh tank filled on the Mammoth, the overloads are barely touching and do not come in full contact until I hitch up the trailer. We'll be testing it later this week over the mountains.
