Actual Best Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2018 Ford F-150

Question:

I have a 2018 F150 Xlt 4×4 with bilstein 5100 front and rear shocks. The truck rides level unloaded. I go on about 20 trips a year camping/fishing/ hunting where the bed is loaded down with lots of gear, firewood, and coolers, or sometimes an atv. I also occasionally have a bike rack on the hitch or pull a utility trailer with raft/drift boat. Im looking for a solution to combat excessive rear sag and the white knuckle driving experience bc the front wheels hardly feel in contact with the ground. Im also trying to maintain a good ride quality while unloaded. Ive researched a ton of different product offerings sumo springs, roadactive suspension, timbren, air bags but would really like a professional opinion on a potential solution. Ideally, the solution would be something i install and dont have to deal with maintenence down the road, so Im trying to avoid air bags, but still open to them if theyre the best solution. Thank you!

I'll give it to you straight Bryan...your best suspension enhancement solution for your 2018 Ford F-150 is the Roadactive suspension kit part # RAS3611-YHD. This gives you everything you are looking for with basically zero drawbacks with minor exception being that it does cost a little more than other options.

You get the easily adjustable support you are wanting, maintenance free, improves handling and ride quality loaded and unloaded, and installs easily.
