For your 2017 Ram 1500 4x4 the best air bag suspension enhancement kit would be the Air Lift kit part # AL57365 which can provide up to 5,000 lbs of additional support. I attached an install video for this kit on a similar 2016 Ram 1500 for you to check out as well.

For a compressor kit then the heavy duty part # AL25854 will work great to make inflating the bags and maintaining them easier. The compressor will inflate faster than standard compressors and the gauge inside the vehicle will allow you to monitor and inflate them from inside the vehicle.

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
