So I am in the market for getting air bags put on the rear of my truck for helping out with towing, and bags for the front as a leveling kit (if that's even a thing). I am wanting a full kit with on-board air with adjustability. I am just at a loss when it comes to finding this stuff. I have found a bunch of universal kits, but they aren't full kits, or they don't accomodate my model.

Any help and/or pics would be greatly appreciated.

only company I know of that makes full airbag suspensions is kelderman(sp?). They are known for doing super lifted trucks but I know that they also do stock or closer to stock height suspensions upgrades. Last I checked their site had little info so I call or email im sure will be needed to know exactly what you can get from them. GL

Thanks reddot, I am kind of more concerned with the rear for load leveling with my horses.

Im not sure what the most used ride corrector is for most guys. Im getting a carli set just because that who made my suspension. Hopefully someone more in the know in this area will chime in. Otherwise the first thing that comes to mind would be a firestone bag setup with vailair onboard air setup.

Check out the "Gearz" episodes on YouTube where Stacy installs air on an Express. THAT would be the way to go IMO.

Thanks, I will for sure. I love that show. I just wish someone with a 2nd gen on here had a set up that I could look at.

I had a Firestone ride right airbag set-up in the back of my truck, it was a universal kit. I could piece it all together and take some pix of it for you. I took it all out when I put in the 7" lift in. I would sell the kit cheap, under a hun. I am in Canada so need to factor in shipping.
