Hey everyone,
Been reading a lot of threads about airbags vs. King springs to assist the AHC in towing. I've begun towing more often and the other weekend I encountered the rear dropping to low for the first time. AHC pressures are in spec day to day but seems the system needs a little help towing heavier loads. I've been debating between King springs or going with a Firestone airbag kit to assist in towing.
My question is, has anyone gone off-road with the airbags? Do they inhibit off-road capability? I like that the airbags are able to be tuned to different pressures for different towing scenarios but I like hitting some trails also and worry the airbags will keep the spring from fully compressing and limit articulation. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
