timbrens or air bags

I have a 07 supercab fx4 does anyone make air bags for the front of this truck or is timbrens my only option for load assist. The reason I ask is the truck has a plow on it and needs a little help up front. Jason

You could put a spacer up front to level the front on with the plow on there. I have never seen any type of airbag setup for the front coil. They make them for the rear leafs.

Lots of guys get the one from ebay made by AutoSpring. They have a 2" and a 2.5".

I'm realy not looking just to level the truck. I am looking for a way to help assist with the weight of the plow. Thanks Jason

Why not go for a set of front springs from the Heavy Duty package. They are spec'd for a plow. Might consider replacing the crappy stock front struts while your at it, you have to pull them out to swap springs anyway.

Curious, what plow are you running on your truck?

I have a fisher 7'6rd. I thought about changing the springs out but did not want to loose the ride. my last truck (04 f350) had air bags in the front wich was nice when I took the plow off I just lowered the air pressure in the bags to maintain a stock ride.

If I can't find anything I will end up putting different sprins in the front. Jason
