hello,
thinking of getting a new 2500 without the air suspension since its on the dealers lot and ready for sale. how do you like yours on the OEM springs??
my last RAM was a 2017 sport 1500 and the OEM springs were garbage! while it had a 1,310lb load rating, if you put even half that in the bed it'd squat horribly! I kinda fixed this by installing TUF springs that were 50% stronger and 0.75" spacers but towing things at the 10,900lb max was still bad! hell my current 2019 Chevy ZR2 with leaf springs and only an 1,100lb load rating does better than the RAM did with or without the TUF springs! of course I can't tow hardly anything at only 5,000lb!
im guessing the 2500 can tow and haul a lot more without squatting so much? or do you still need up upgrade the springs, install air bags or wait and get the truck with the OEM air bags?
thanks
