I prefer the SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs # SS52GR for your 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor 4WD over an Air Lift system because the SumoSprings are a maintenance free solution; you're never going to need to go find an air compressor each time you want to tow something.

The other thing is that because you'll be doing some light off-roading, the SumoSprings won't reduce your suspension travel since they're only bolted to one spot on the frame where the Air Lift system bolts to the frame and the axle, so if you're getting a lot of suspension travel it's just going to stress the bags out.

The SumoSprings # SS52GR also install much easier, so they're really a great all around solution.
