Torklift StableLoad and Air Bag Kit Compressor Kit Recommendation for 2003 Ford F-350 SRW
Question:
I have a 2003 Ford F350 single rear wheels with airbags and Hellwig sway bar. My rig with a Lance 835 Camper and usually a two horse trailer behind seems pretty stable. As I added the airbags and sway bar each upgrade added more stability. Camper is always on and the trailer most of the time. Ive noticed that when we take a trip without the trailer I need to reduce the pressure in the airbags to improve the ride. Two questions: Can I expect even more stability with the TLA7200 StableLoads? Will the ride be stiffened noticeably with the StableLoads? PS: When I tried to add another image I was taken to a blank Do you have a question about part # TLA7200?inch page so, only one photo.

Expert Reply:
The StableLoad part # TLA7200 will preload your overload springs to give additional support and stiffness when needed. You can use this kit with an air bag kit and it will work well. With this kit you wouldn't have to inflate the bags as high either so the ride will be smoother.
It sounds like your best option would be to install a compressor kit for the air bag kit you have installed in your truck as well to allow you to easily control the air pressure for both setups. When you have the trailer and when you do not. With the press of a button you would be able to fine tune the air pressure in the bags to give you the best ride quality.
The part # F2158 would be a great option as it comes with a gauge as well to make monitoring easy as possible.
