Which airbags?
There are a whole lot of airbag systems out there and I just don't know enough about them to make a intelligent decision. I will be installing them on a 08 F350. For the most part it is my daily driver. But it is the truck I use to tow the boat. After installing a leveling kit on the frontend I am worried that the trailer weight will drop the a$$end to much. What has been working or not working for you? Thanks Mark

Firestone and Air Lift are made in the same factory. (Firestone's)
I have run both with no issues whatsoever. I've had them on 5 different trucks.
If you are installing an air system, make sure you visit www.hornblasters.com
It's the best $800 I've spent on a tow vehicle.

You have to run air lines into the cab of your truck, but that's really not a big deal.
There are also wireless kits as well, they are not really 'add-on' kits, plus you have to run power and ground; and they are expensive.
