Hey Tyson! The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs item # AL88289 have a built in jounce bumper similar to a bump stop, whereas the item # AL57289 does not. These are helpful if you want to run your air bags with little or no air pressure in them.
Both the Air Lift item # AL57289 and item # AL88289 fit the 2015 Ram 2500 2WD and 4WD models. They are compatible with in bed hitches as well.
For an air compressor, I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System item # AL74000EZ. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone or the included remote. It can be mounted easily out of sight with the included u-bolt that does not require drilling.
What are you needing the air bags for?
