I just picked up a set of Airbags for the back of my 08 Ram. I will be running around with moderate weight and towing a trailer frequently this summer. I'd hate to manually inflate my bags so I need help as which kit to get? I won't be having my bed fully loaded with sand bags, I got these just to keep the truck level simple as that and control the rarity of excessive hitch weight.

This kit here utilizes a cheap compressor but has a pressure sensor and additional fittings. You need to keep a minimum of 5psi in your bags at all times.

This kit looks like it has a heavier duty compressor (although they call it a LT model) but no pressure sensor so that will be another $30 if i can even find one???

Do you think the cheap one will have any lasting components? Is it sufficient to fill the bags within a short period of time? I'm looking for a single control system. I want to either mount the compressor behind the rear seat or under the pass. seat? I just don't know if the nicer one is too tall or can even be mounted sideways? The install of the cheap one shows it can be even upside down, but the cylindrical one I'm not so sure about? Any advice?


Ohh, I picked up these airbags. 5k lbs rated. mounts directly over the axle(mounts on the inner rail where the bump stops are) It has no drill mounting brackets. Here's the link

Those airbags will need spacers for lifted trucks. Other brands mount on the leaf spring which a lift kit has no effect on. Just make sure you realize this. Nice thing....They are only bolted on and can easily be removed if you ever sell or go a different route.

 

What do ya guys think? I'm undecided what to go with?
