My bumper pull travel trailer has a tongue weight of ~ 1200 lbs.
Only carry 200 to 300 lbs of gear in the bed … plus two small kids in car seats in the back seat (wife and I in the front seats).
Wondering what tongue weight justifies installing air bags on my new 2021 F250 7.3 Tremor ?
Anyone out there have experience with a similar tongue weight with & without air bags installed ?
Appreciate any friendly feedback.
Side Note: Had Airlift air bags with the Airlift air compressor and wireless remote on my 2019 Duramax … but never towed without the air bags to know if they were truly necessary. Also put limit straps on my rear suspension to keep the tire techs / mechanics from potentially damaging the air bags by lifting the truck without properly supporting the rear end (saw them do this to another guy’s truck and damage the air bags ?).
