Recommended Air Bags For A 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Question

Question:

I have a 2021 f-250 ford truck. Recently switched from a travel trailer to a fifth wheel rv. Loaded weight is around 11,000 pounds. The ride in our truck is so much rougher than the travel trailer. What is the preference to ease the bounce air shocks, air bags, Lippert air king pin?

I would recommend using air bags to help make your ride smoother. I would recommend The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # AL23FJ.

This air bag system has a 5,000 pound capacity and provides a high-quality, full-time load support. They will help level your Ford F-250 Super Duty, which improves your braking, and ride comfort and reducing the strain on your factory suspension. These air bags are made in the USA.

I would also recommend The Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount # AL74000EZ. This system will let you adjust both air springs independently with the wireless remote control, it also provides 3 programmable pressure settings for frequently hauled loads.

I attached a installation video link below.

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
