squating problems
I have an 05 f-250 diesel cc 8ft bed. I have a 5th wheel I tow (8000lbs). My truck squats enough that it makes the front end slightly light. I have been told about air bags for the rear suspention vs. helper springs. Is any one using these.

I have an '05 F350 sc w/8'box. I tow a 5th wheel 14,000#s with 2600+#s of pin weight. I removed the original overload springs (spring slapping against brackets while towing - unpleasent ride). Installed air bags and got a much smoother ride. I inflate the bags to 30-35#s when towing and it keeps my headlights aimed properly. I run 5#s when empty.
I like the adjustability of the airbags versus "Timbrens".
