Installed Airlift Air Bags
I got everything on amazon, you get get some pretty good deals on open box if your patient. I think for the compressor kit and bags it was around $600-$700 ish With the cradles I haven’t installed yet. And yea I did the install myself. It’s pretty straight forward. Instructions are good.- carcandy

Level kit pics & suggestions
I went with the carli “budget” kit that comes with new springs and fox 2.0 shocks on all 4 corners. I’ve run spacers in the past on other trucks and always felt it drove like crap afterwords, too stiff. This felt like an improvement over stock. Not Kings by any means but rides great.- carcandy

Custom Rear Seat 12V Power and USB Ports
Thank you for creating and sharing the bracket. Excellent job! I ordered a set and got everything pre-wired this evening. Will install in the am. My goal is to try to use factory parts or make is look as factory as possible when doing mods. I was able to source Mopar parts for the usb and 12v...- carcandy

Installed Airlift Air Bags
The bags themselves required no drilling. Mounting the compressor did require drilling pilot holes for the self tapping screws. It’s pretty thick so definitely use a good drill bit.- carcandy

Installed Airlift Air Bags
I did the 5000 lb kit. I don't tow one specific thing regularly but random things all the time. I have a 2,500 lb equipment trailer that sees a lot of use anything from cars, sxs hay rides etc. I've had quite a bit of weight in the bed too that would have been nice to air up to level it back...- carcandy

My iPad/ phone mount solution
I did see that mount when looking around for ideas. I'm not really a fan of suction cup mounts. Also the T-track sits a lot lower in the tray so you don't really see it at all when not in use. -

Not worried about it, and it doesn't obstruct my view. I can still see the hood above it from where it sits. -
Got all the pieces to finish my tonnaeu cover
I recently installed a pace Edwards ultra groove cover and got a set of cross bars from rhino rack. They fit in the track in the rails. It will primarily be used for our roof top tent, but should also be handy for kayaks and such. Anyone else run a similar setup? Always looking for ideas. -
Leveled 2500 / rear airbag question
I ended up going the air lift route and I also ordered the cradles. I have not installed the cradles yet. From what I’ve seen you need to drill and tap a hole on the bump stop perch on the axle. Time wasn’t on my side when installing. Before I go on an off-road trip I’ll put the cradles on. -
Got New Wheels? Something to consider...
Ditto, I'm normally not huge on harbor freight quality, but they have a pretty trick socket lug nut kit that has two socket but they're reversible so you get 4 sizes. If memory serves me it's only about $15. -
Got New Wheels? Something to consider...
This might be common sense to most but I’ve forgotten to do this in the past and it’s left me in a pickle on the side of the road waiting on the right socket to show up. So a lot of us upgrade to aftermarket wheels and tires on our trucks, which most of the time call for different narrower lug... -
