How To Help Prevent Sag While Towing with a 2019 Ram 1500
Question:
I am sagging like crazy towing our trailer with a 2019 Ram 1500 and it's starting to affect our stopping power. What do you have for me?

In order to help prevent sag while towing with a 2019 Ram 1500 (4x4 or 4x2) you have a few options, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-307-47 or the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4130. The Coil-Rite Springs are nice because you can adjust them for varying loads whereas the SumoSprings are non-adjustable. The SumoSprings however are maintenance free whereas the Coil-Rite Springs are not. That said, the adjustability of the Coil-Rite Springs exceeds the lack of maintenance for the SumoSprings so that is what I recommend.
If you don't have access to an external air compressor you can add the Firestone Air Command I part # F2158 which allows you to make adjustments on the fly. The Firestone Air Command I will be most closely matched to the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs in regards to capacity.
