OK, wanting to put air bags on my 2010 1500 4X4 Hemi.I have not followed air bag thread very close as I have not needed them for my 2500's but I am wanting to install a Gooseneck ball in my 1500 so I have a backup tow rig since my main trailers are goosenecks, not that I would pull them loaded but would like the ability to move the trailers around and transport them with my 1500 as well.I know there are several brands and I am not looking to install a compressor, I would adjust and set them to a set pressure manually and just want remote access hose and stems for now.What are the best ones for my application keeping in mind that the Dodge 1500 has rear coil springs and not leaf spring suspension.Price doesn't matter as much to me as wanting the best product that will last while being almost totally coated in mud most of the time and 75% of the time runs gravel roads so they need to be abrasion / puncture proof over the long haul.

Well an update, I decided to get the TLC air bag kit as they had a sale going on and I got in on the last day of it. Got the kit and installed it today, took about 1.5 counting getting it on the hoist to backed out the door, it took the longest trying to route the airlines in an out of the way, neat and trouble free way "I am kind of anal that way", it was a simple easy install.

Now to figure out what to get for a gooseneck ball that is reasonable $ that is a flip over style and has a small in floor footprint like B&W but less expensive if there is one, if not a B&W it will be with the 4" extended shank ball.

I thought about it but there is nothing I could add that are different from all of the pics in the company link.s. The only pics that would have been different would be my air hose routing but they are tucked in so well I don't think pics would do any good.

Sorry.

Okay, well, do a before and after picture when you use them to tow the trailer! :tongue:
