Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2016 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a 16 Ford F150 4x4 5.0 with a short bed. I have a 7000lb travel trailer and want to enhance my suspension but dont want a stiff ride when Im not towing. I was looking at the Super Springs not leaf and wondered if that was a good choice. I would like your input and guidance. Thank you!

Expert Reply:
The best option you'd have to give you the suspension support you want when you need it and then a stock ride quality when not in use would be the Firestone kit part # F2582. Since this is an air bag kit it will allow you the flexibility of being able to have whatever amount of suspension support you need at any given time.
A compressor kit like the part # F2158 would then be a great option as it allows you the ability to easily control the air pressure from the cab of your truck.
