For air bags designed to fit your 2021 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis you need the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2478. The Air Lift # AL57231 is only designed to fit the pickup, not the cab and chassis.

The # F2478 has a 4,800 lb load-leveling capacity. These will keep you level while towing or hauling, and help increase stability. They feature a double-convoluted design and are attached to the corrosion-resistant metal end plates with a time-proven, rolled crimp seal that keeps the bags securely anchored.

The one requirement for the cab and chassis is 8" of frame to tire clearance. You will need to measure on your vehicle to make sure you have the correct clearance.

In addition to the air bags I recommend adding an air compressor like the Firestone Air Command II # F2219. This will allow you to adjust your air bags wherever you are from the cab of your vehicle. This is a dual path system so you can adjust each air bag individually or together.

I have attached a review and installation video for your reference.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
