RoadActive Suspension Kit Recommendation for 2018 Ford F-150
Question:
Nearly all the responses in the QandA address towing issues, mine concerns carrying a load. I have a 2018 Ford F150 XLT Sport package. I make sales calls with this truck and I carry roughly 650 to 900 lbs of product with me at all times. With this much load the truck has roughly a +2inch of squat and no longer looks or feels level. On rare occasions, I may tow something but nothing over 5000 lbs. Is the RAS product a better choice over air bags and will the standard RAS have enough strength to level my ride.

Expert Reply:
I really like the RAS systems like the part # RAS3611-Y you referenced. You get the load support you are wanting which is adjustable without the harshness of the jounce style setups and without the higher maintenance of the air spring kits. This would easily provide you with the support you are wanting so that your truck sits level so I would recommend it highly.
I attached a review video for more info on it as well.
