That new 2500 system looks like the Kelderman replacement rear suspension that has been a available for a few years. I had always planned on going that route if/when I get a new truck. I researched it a couple years ago and people with the systems really seemed to like them. Anything the manufacturers can do to help these trucks ride better when unloaded has got to help them sell trucks. We all see the constant complaints of ride quality in HD trucks (some people even insist something must be broken :))

He is still laying under his truck trying to figure out how he thought flexible boots over the air bags looked like coil springs to him.

LOL.... Those are molded ribs in the air bag and not coil springs.



It looks like they have added a flexible boot(similar to some shocks) over the air bag! Maybe they had trouble withe rocks getting between the bag and the cylinder at the top end or the one at the bottom that goes into the bag bottom?

You are arguing about something that you know nothing. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Kind of like politics, if it doesn't agree with your way of thinking it must be fake.

Is now a bad time to point out that DODGE doesn't make the 2019 Ram 2500? Asking for a friend...

mt, guess all I can say is how do you think the suspension is able to dump the air and lower down, 4-5" or however much it is if there's a coil spring of any substance in there?

Looks like a coil sprung toilet plunger I had several years back.
What you see is not an airbag. You can look under my pickup and you will not see an airbag, a coil spring or leaf springs. I don't believe leaf springs are available anymore on any of the 2019 dodge 2500's. The 2500 is only available with coils. Now with that said, the auto air leveling system with bags is available as a option. They are exactly what they are listed as, a auto leveling system with the use of airbags. They do not take the place of springs. When you order the auto leveling you get a integrated coil over air. This is encased in a plastic shroud. That is what you are looking at in the picture. Crawl under one and take a hold of what you think is an airbag. It is just a cover nothing more. Very easy to tell because it fits very loosely around the unit. You can crawl underneath drain all the air out of the bags and still have up and down action due to the coils. It's obvious I'm just wasting my time here so I won't waste it anymore on this thread and will move on. You are arguing about something that you know nothing. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Kind of like politics, if it doesn't agree with your way of thinking it must be fake.

^ Interesting, it doesn't appear anyone Air Lift included makes a set of in-coil bags for the Ram 2500 rear springs, but they do make universal bags in different dimensions. Must be what those are.
Nice for a little added capacity (as much as you'd want to put on the 2500 anyway for the most part). But the add on double con volute bag kits are the way to go IMO for the coil Rams partly due to capacity of those bags, partly due to supporting load further out form center than the coil springs are mounted.
