Question:
I have a 2017 2500 ram that I plow with and the front suspension is getting a little soft. These look like they will help with the front sag. Is there a compression addition to these helper springs?

Expert Reply:
The Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs # AL80532 for your 2017 Ram 2500 are rated for up to 1,000lbs of capacity. While they will help reduce the front sag when you are plowing a better option would be installing the Timbren # TDF25004E. These provide much more support at 11,000lbs capacity without any maintenance.
