Recommended Suspension Enhancement For 2018 Ford F-150 In Northern Wisconsin
Question:
I have 2018 Ford F150, I am looking for a suspension upgrade that allows for a smooth ride when empty but will help with sag when hauling 1,000-1,200 pound truck camper. I could probably add an air bag system but I am worried about the Northern Wisconsin winters with all the road salt.

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Ford F-150 I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers # AL88385 which are confirmed to fit your truck. The # AL88385 offers up to 5000lbs of load leveling support for your rear suspension when carrying your 1000-1200lb truck camper, and when you are unloaded you can lower the air pressure in the helper springs to keep your factory ride quality.
To keep from needing to manually inflate the helper springs each time you are ready to carry your camper I recommend adding an on-board air compressor # AL25856 which will allow you to adjust the air pressure in the helper springs from the comfort of your driver seat.
