I have a 2.5 AS level up front and 35" tires, I'm looking to gain a little bit of height in the back and try to improve ride quality/body roll. Don't really do any heavy towing, it will usually be a small trailer with an atv or a couple of dirt bikes in the bed.

Thinking about putting in the Load lifter 5000 airbags, how will the ride quality be with an empty truck with the bags inflated enough to get say 1" of lift in the rear?

Do not buy those!!
I just put on a set those the ultimate 5000 with internal jouncer.

2 weeks I took them off and am now going to try the ride control ones.

Absolutely bone jarring rough, 0 psi or 5 or....,
Absolutely worse product I've ever purchased.

Air lifts customer service guy even told me they are terrible because the bag is too squished when installed.

The ride control mount completely different and are more extended.

I will find out in a few days if the ride control is any better.

There 60 day money back guarantee is a good thing though.

Cameron what about the Load Lifter 5000 without the internal jouncer? Would those be okay or nah?

cameronskidoo

I doubt it because I think the bag itself is the same height
The problem is the way they mount them.
It's too squished when installed

Good to know! Keep us posted please!

Just put the ride control on.
First impressions
It takes 12 psi before the rear will raise even 1/8" so that's good in my opinion.

Deflated back to the 5 psi minimum and rode around town empty and it seems factory.

So far I'm happy.

The 5000 series would break your back driving around empty.

I have the 2000# on mine and didn't notice any ride difference. But if you're going to use it to lift the back it's going to be rough no matter what bag you use.
