what are good air bags
I've got a 2012 F250 CC 4x4 and I want to put air bags to assist with leveling my truck when loaded. What bags would you recommend, and would you get a compressor with them?

I have used "AIR LIFT" products on my last two trucks. They were an easy install and ran about $100 less than the Firestone product. If you hold them side by side, there isn't much difference in design and quality. I have never felt the need for an on-board compressor as it doubles the price of the unit, and is something else that can break. Since I only change the pressure in the airbags when towing, I'm only messing with them maybe once a month for five minutes or less. I have friends who have the Firestone brand and are happy with them. None of them use the on-board compressor.
I have the compressor, and have had no problems, if you never had a compressor then I doubt you know the benefit's of having one. I wouldn't be without one. I was happy with just the airbags, and a lot more happy when I installed the compressor, some like the hassle of dealing with an outside air source, I didn't . Push of a switch to inflate ,push of a switch to deflate. You will never know how nice it is to change pressure for different road conditions, unless of course you want to stop ,and experiment with pressure.
