At the recommendation of @Oldie2007 i am posting this question here.

So I am trying to decide the next mod for the rig and I’m debating a new leaf pack or airbags. I am leaning toward airbags with Daystar Cradles due to the fact that it would give me the most flexibility with varying load weight. I do want to still have the off-road flexibility though for the occasional wheeling excursion. Do any of y’all have real world experience and advice? I would say I haul trailers and bed loads way more than off-road. I’ve read a few of the threads on TW but I’m still stuck. Any help is appreciated.

 

Watch this just ignore us!

 

Where did the picture go??!?!?

 

That was to a RADAR pic I thought was posted, not you. You won't get ignored 100% promise.

 

Kinda figured that after I posted. Hence the deletion. Sorry about that

 

There is the pic of the storm just avoiding us.....

 

@Kolunatic has long term experience, and barely uses them.
@BassAckwards has long term experience, but owns more stuff than I can keep track of!
@ someone else here had some bags ….but me no remember.

 

Both may be out for the night, give them until tomorrow to respond

 

Certainly so! I'm out for the night, but I'm still here anyway!

 

Ty brother. I am planning to pull a small camper/trailer at some point soon so I was thinking airbags might be helpful plus I pull a fair amount of weight somewhat regularly. BUT I want to still off-road. I know flex is limited w/ airbags.

 

@Kolunatic is a little preoccupied.....it is Friday after all



Not that this doesn't happen any other day of the week

 

Everyone has their own way, but I will never have airbags without 4 link again. Airbags and leaf springs are finicky I’ve found, granted my experience is in 1 tons. I would go heavy Dakars and call it a day, much more usable.

 

I say go with some hd dakars. My firestone ride rites are bouncy af when loaded up. Im gonna get a leaf pack at some point

 

What do you mean by finicky? Just trying to gather real world input.

What do they ride like w/ no load and ~ how much weight do you typically pull?

 

Ive only seen one truck that didn’t ride like complete crap with bags on leafs, still think it was a fluke. People will tell you they love what they have because they don’t want to admit it was a terrible purchase.

 

this probably more true ^^^^^ that many would like to admit! I rode some Air Shocks eons ago, but they are not the same thing at all.

 

We all know he works his ass off, but when I last asked, he had aired them down to minimum.....

 

I couldnt tell you, ive had constant load on them since day one. I dont tow anything, so cant speak to that unfortunately. I have about 500lbs or so of stuff always on the truck though and theyre good to level it out.

 

Yeah that's what I meant, he's passed out from working hard, what did y'all think I was talking about
