I would definitely go with some AIRLIFT airbags with the on-board compressor. Looks good.

Air bags are definitely the way to go. That way you don't have to always have the added stiffness. Plus IMO theyre easier..

i agree with everyone else here.... AIRBAGS !!! they are easier to install, give you the flexibility based on what you are towing. if you get the compressor then it is more money, but very convenient.... i think i paid a little over 400 for the bags and compressor.
