Hey Guys!
Wanted to get your all opinion on what to do here.
Getting a 5th wheel next week
So far
Fox 2.0's all the way around
Iconic 3" coil/spring up front
Air rite bags in back
18" wheel with a 35" tire no offset

Do you think this set up will be OK? Am I missing anything? Couldn't find a trackbar for the 2wd....anyone know of any?

Does a 2wd even have a track bar?

are you looking for a front or rear trackbar or both?

Towing performance will always be better with a stock configured truck (lift and tire wise).

With that said, give us more info on the 5th wheel specs. With 35" tires, if you have 3.73 (or even 4.10) gears you likely will want to regear to 4.56 or even 4.88 to get the power back, especially towing a big 5th wheel.

Are you using a slider hitch? I recommend them for short bed trucks.

These trucks are pretty stout, if you're towing near the limit of payload/capacity airbags (5K) should help with the ride/sag on a stock truck.
