I had posted a question regarding shocks and smoothing out my ride. A member said to remove the air bags to which I replied they did not affect the ride, they do.
Even though I only had 5lbs of air in them, that was enough to raise the back of the truck 5/16". I removed the bags and the ride is MUCH better. So, my aplogies to the member I snapped at.

 

Wow, you are a rare breed now a days, most folks will not publicly apologize for anything. thanks.

BTW, it wasnt me.

 

Yeah most would just try to find another way to make it sound like they weren't wrong with another excuse, theres not too many strait up people these days

 

so then you dont need the air bags anymore right?????

 

You done real good partner.

 

Only 5/16, man mine raise my rig up a good 2" with any amount of air in them.I do find the truck a little stiffer with the bags, but i wouldn't run without them now.

 

I still need them, just not enough to deal with the rough ride everyday. I capped the lines and left everything on the truck. I just pop them in when I need them.

I don't know if it makes a difference since I have the camper package as well. But yes, with 5 lbs, when I let it out, it dropped the truck 5/16. I can not believe how much smoother the ride is. Once I get my front and rear bumper replacements, I may be able to put the bags back on and the extra weight will keep it smooth.
