Thanks for your comments, I'm sure all of the brands mentioned are superior quality for off-road and/or heavy duty use - but my inquiry was similar to Truckin151 for improved overall ride on a pavement 2WD QC.

I was under the impression that air bags were just for load helping and not necissarily ride quality.

Sorry guys - didn't realize it was an exclusive 4x4 thread. Probably just go with Bilsteins anyway***

However, Most the 4wd's have no springs in the front, Just Torsion bars. So any app for a 2wd won't really work for the 4wd and vice-versa.
I am looking more into this whole bagging thing. Anyone done this with there 1500 qc 4wd? Looks to be pretty involved, However, Looks like it might be worth it from what I am reading.

Before you start... I know I have a truck.
I lowered the rear of my truck about 2" if it makes a difference.
With that said, I want to get the absolute smoothest ride possible. I know Ill never get a cadilac quality ride, But, gotta be a way to get it smoother.
My truck is a 4x4, But I don't go offroading. Worst I do is the occasional snow bank, lol. I have an 05 QC Ram 1500. I will soon have airbags in the back to help with the occasional trailer I tow. Other than that I don't load up the bed with anything heavier than an occasional fridge.
So I ask, What can I do to get the ride smoother than it is?

Truthly It is pretty rare the 4x4 switch sees any action, Usually don't need it.
