Air Shocks
Currently driving a Ram 1500 with Hemi. Has plenty of power to pull the camper but I am riding low. The truck is only used to pull the camper otherwise it is a third vehicle. What do you recommend ...

Heavy duty coils are a great option as well.
Ram 1500s are notoriously “comfortable”. The rest of the truck is pretty tough like any other truck.
AFAIK, same 9.25” corporate rear axle ( the one part of the equation that isn’t easily upgradeable, obviously) that has been in use for about 40 years. Easily capable of running at 4500lbs or so load perpetually, and not near its strength limit.
The rest of the truck save for the springs is good for basically 5klbs on the rear axle as well. Even the stock tires. Although LT tires are much nicer.
Aside from the other numerous Chrysler 9-1/4 axle trucks, one particular old Ram Charger we had, pulled a sizable tandem axle cargo trailer loaded with commercial mowers daily, for years. Dunno how heavy it was, but there was always 4-5 men in the cabin and enough 36-72” commercial mowers and gear to keep them all working.
Your travel trailer won’t break it short of some real extenuating circumstances.
This explanation was not for the OP, but rather for the weight police!
