Expert Reply:

The SuperCoils Custom Suspension Coils # SSC-51 can be used with another suspension system like the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR1500DQ. The Timbren will not work your 2019 Ram 1500 if it is a regular cab or has factory air suspension.

Since it sounds like you only need the suspension enhancement when you are towing your travel trailer, I recommend using a Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET. With the Equal-i-zer you will be able to level your Ram and also get the added benefit of sway control. This will ensure that you trailer stays level and straight when you are towing. It is rated for trailers up to 10,000lbs with a tongue weight of 600-1,000lbs. Also your ride will not become more harsh like it will with all the suspension enhancement parts that you would be adding.

A 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 is required to install the included 2-5/16" ball that is included with the Equal-i-zer system. I recommend using the Sway Bracket Jackets # EQ95-01-5150 with the hitch. These jackets fit between the weight distribution bars and trailer frame brackets. They reduce the metal on metal contact helping to extend the life of the components as well as noise produced from the hitch when you are maneuvering.
