Default Air bag warranty issues?

I purchased my 2011 Dakota 4x4 to tow behind my motorhome and be able to carry my motorcycle in the bed. The weight of the bike and the Blue Ox loader is close to 1200 pounds which is within the advertised cargo carrying capacity of the truck but the rear sags close to 4". After reading earlier threads I decided the best way to level the truck for towing would be the Air Lift Ride Control air helper springs that require drilling mounting holes in the frame. Would this cause any warranty issues that I should worry about? Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Only warranty issue would be rust on the frame area that the air bags are located. Go for it! They are worth it!

Eimer I think has it...

The only other thing I could think of is if there was some suspension breakage in the rear... the dealer might try and say its the air bags that caused it. I have never heard of any issues though like that.

Get 'em. I've had a the Air Lift Ride Controls for over five years now and it's been great...
