Let's go ahead and start with the fit, and the answer is yes, so long as your 2021 Ram 1500 Rebel 4x4 does not have the factory Air Suspension system, you can install the Air Lift air bags:
- Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57375
These are a great option for your Ram 1500 to support its suspension, reduce sag, and improve its steering and handling while you are towing. In regards to putting your truck on a lift with these installed, yes you can do that. According to Air Lift, it can be put on a hoist/lifted for short term work like tire rotation or an oil change, but for extensive periods of time you should support the axle with jack stands in order to take the tension off the air springs.
As for the compressor, there is a wireless option that is compatible with these air bags that I highly recommend, which is also from Air Lift:
- Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount # AL74000EZ
This compressor has a remote but is also Bluetooth-compatible, has different programmable settings for different load sizes, gives you diagnostic reports so you can always be sure the compressor is working perfectly, and the manifold is even waterproof so you don't have to worry about it breaking down in the weather.
The only other thing I recommend is using a hose cutter to ensure precise cuts during the installation of the air bags, the Air Lift Air Hose Cutter # AL10530.
