Expert Reply:

We have two different Air Lift systems that'll work, but the right system for you will depend on how you mainly use your truck. If you tow infrequently, or carry heavy loads in the truck bed infrequently, the # AL57289 from Air Lift with its 5000 lb capacity would work well for you. If you tow or haul fairly often with heavier weights, the # AL88289 Load Lifter Ultimate would be a better choice because of its internal bump stops which help reduce body roll in turns and also prevents the springs from being damaged should you lose pressure in the system. Any of these would work for you as long as your Ram doesn't have the factory air suspension.

You might also consider a compressor system like the # AL74000 that would allow you to control the pressure in the fronts and rears independently. This would allow you to add or remove pressure from the system at the touch of a button without leaving the truck cab.
