For your 2022 Ram 2500 I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SSR-312-54. These custom helper springs have a 2,800-lb capacity to easily handle the added 2,350lbs of pin weight from your 5th wheel trailer without giving you a stiff ride when not towing your trailer. They are designed for progressive load control which means these springs will compress according to the weight of your cargo. For lighter loads the springs compress easily at first for soft engagement and a less bumpy ride and for heavier loads the springs compress by as much as 80 percent for support.

The best part about these microcellular urethane springs is that they maintenance free, are tough and resistant to abrasion, oil, salt, and UV rays that can more quickly wear out other springs, and they perform well in temperatures ranging from -25 F to 200 F.
