Does Roadactive Suspension Kit Affect Ride Quality of 2021 Ford F-150
Updated 12/12/2022 | Published 12/11/2022 >
Question:
2021 FORD F150 4WD Short Bed, with 2000 lbs truck camper. Currently has Timbren bumpstop, Torklift StableLoad lower. With truck camper on truck, I found my truck rear still sags a little. Will this RAS help with sag and/or sway ? What will happen to ride quality ? When i remove the truck camper, i usually lower the tire pressure, and disengage the Torklift lower stableload. Do i need to adjust the RAS to have better ride quality ? i dont want a bouncy car without the camper on the truck. Does the RAS makes the ride harder than before. please clearify .. thanks

Expert Reply:
With as much suspension enhancement as you have currently installed on your 2021 Ford F-150 I would be a little worried that you are exceeding the payload capacity of your truck so I would recommend checking that. But with that said the RoadActive kits like the # RAS3611-Y do the absolute best job of providing the support needed, ease of install and adjustability, and unlike other options actually improve loaded an unloaded ride quality compared to other options. The handling also improves as well.
As long as you aren't exceeding the weight capacity of your truck you'd be able to find a support setting that would do a great job balancing the support you are wanting without making the ride quality harsher.
