Proper procedure for WDH ***** with air suspension

[Santo Tomasine]

Hello All, I’m getting a 1500 with the air suspension option. We camp a lot during the summer and will be towing my travel trailer a bunch. I am looking to see if anyone has experience hooking up their weight distribution hitch with the air suspension. I saw somewhere we should disable the air suspension in the tire/jack setting before hooking up the hitch. Then turn it back on after to let the truck auto level.

That is correct. I am looking for when you disconnect.
It may be the same process for disconnecting. I don’t have my manual currently and researching answers.
Took delivery yesterday, hooking up was not a problem. Back is raised and front is “mushy”, according to my wife.

Having a lot of experience with WDH use, I think the title is precisely accurate.

Sorry I have no experience with the Ram air suspension.

I have the 1500 with air suspension, been towing with it for 2 years now. You are correct, before you hook up the trailer, put it in "Jack mode" so it doesn't adjust on you. Then connect up the WDH bars or chains so the weight is adjusted forward and back. Then you can take it out of Jack mode. The truck will adjust like normal. When un-hitching, I don't mess with the air suspension at all. I take the weight off the tongue and then the truck will adjust back down to normal height.

Make sure the ***** is in the front seat, that will help offset some of the weight of the trailer.

or something.
