Default air lift ride control

I just installed the ride control on my 08 with a 6" lift to get the rear end back up and I have to say I'm very impressed with the bags inflated to 38psi right now it takes the bed hop out of the truck...anyone thinking of doing add a leaf or bags...I have to says bags it is.

I have to agree! I have Firestone bags in and it rides much better. I usually cruise around at 12 psi but its nice to be able to pump them up in a couple seconds and pick up a bunch of gravel or whatever. I got them to haul my camper around mostly and they work great.

Add a leaf gives you the tough suspension all day long, but the air bags let you adjust to whatever you are hauling. I got a cheap cordless air compressor that gets them to pressure very quick

Yes exactly with the lift kit and 80,000 miles my leaf spring were just stressed and this was the perfect solution. I mean the bad end just feel so much more connected to the road.
