Best Air Bag Suspension System for 2019 Ram 2500 Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
I have a 2019 Ram 2500 truck and I'm towing a fifth wheel trailer. I have a bit of a rear end sag issue and I would like to be able to use air bag suspension enhancements to ensure a little more level, and a bit of a smoother ride. What air bags are going to be the best they'll be able to help me out and will work with the hitch?

The best air bag suspension enhancement for your 2019 Ram 2500 when towing a fifth wheel trailer are the the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2598 because they are the strongest, most durable air bags available which provide you with optimal support for your Ram's suspension to help keep you level when towing.
The construction of the Firestone air bags is what sets them apart; they are made with four layers of reinforced rubber, which is a thicker, more reliable construction than other air bags. This means the Ride-Rite air bags are the best-performing, most dependable air bags you can get and are completely compatible with an in-bed hitch like you have. The accompanying photo shows one of these air bags installed on a Ram 2500.
During the installation of these air bags, you are going to want to ensure your air lines are cut perfectly straight, and the best way to do this is by using the Air Hose Cutter # AL10530. Also, I do highly recommend adding a compressor, the Air Command Compressor System - Wireless - Smartphone Enabled # F2610. This compressor is totally unique because it allows you to adjust the air pressure in the bags from the comfort of your truck's cab with just your smartphone. I have added links to a number of video reviews for you to check out as well.
