Hey Tom! Installing the air bags should take about an hour or less on the Air Lift 1000 Heavy Duty Air Helper Springs with Analog Standard Duty Air Compressor item # AL47FF, you were looking at. You do not need to remove the springs because the bags are deflated and slide through the coils.
The time consuming part of installing item # AL47FF is setting up the compressor. There's quite a few options on where to mount the compressor so there's not a set time for how long installation should take.
The Air Lift item # AL47FF has been confirmed to fit the 2019 Ram 1500 Classic. It is compatible with both the 2WD and 4WD models.
