Will A Weight Distribution System Require Suspension Enhancements on a 2017 Ram 1500
Question:
Is there a complete air suspension conversion kit with compressor and everything else needed for an automatic system for a 2017 Ram 1500 2 wheel drive?

Expert Reply:
The use of a properly rated and installed weight distribution system will not require the use of additional suspension enhancements such as the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancements. However, as your 2017 Ram 1500 has coil springs on the rear of the vehicle which tend to sag/squat more than the comparable leaf spring rear suspension setup, I recommend replacing these coil springs with a set of air springs such as the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 which will increase your load-leveling capacity up to your truck's GVWR. This will not only help your suspension while towing but also while hauling any load.
