Default rough ride Ram 2500 4x4

my 2009 truck is great so far but rides like a tank with no load & goes to the ground with a load. I can put air bags for the load. but need some ideas for the ride when empty.

Are you located in Mexico? The 2009 1500 is labeled as a 2500 in Mexico, if you're in the states and have a 2500 then you are running a different suspension setup than us and i can move this to the 3rd gen ram section for you to get more help. Cummins or Hemi? The 3rd gen style 2500 shouldnt have any problems with squating under load, how much weight are you talking about?
