I have a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 short box with a hemi. My fifth wheel trailer is 9800 lb dry , I am looking to put the timbrens on it. Will towing this trailer with the timbrens be safe?

Using the Timbren rear suspension enhancement system on your 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 would definitely be safe and would be a good idea to help the suspension of your truck perform better and last longer. The Timbren springs will also help keep the back of your truck from sagging as much which will help with stopping and tire wear.

For your specific truck the correct Timbren kit is # TDR2500CA. The kit you referenced is for newer Dodge trucks and is not designed for the 2004 model. I provided a link to the installation instructions for the correct kit for you also.
