suspension ?????

[MChaney]

got my truck used so i did'nt get everything i wanted. this truck has no overloads on the rear. i have a local junkyard that does nothing but dodge and can get the factory overloads. or do any of you have any better suggestions? p. s. it's a 99 shortbed 2500 and it doesnt seem to be as tuff as my 95 longbed 2500 which did'nt have overloads either

Air bags

My '96 3500 has the factory overloads as part of the camper package. I bought the truck used so thats what I got. But the factory springs are kind of bouncy empty and will clunk when loaded if the loaded weight is just shy of the overloades hitting their stops. Why not try air bag assist? I think it won't compromise the empty ride.

Get the main and aux springs from a late model wreck. Air bags are not as stable in turns and side winds as steel.
