If you're looking to increase your truck's load capacity FORGET IT they don't increase anything. If you want to level your truck when towing and improve the ride go for the bags. I have had Firestone and Air Ride both on 2 different trucks and was happy with both and had no problems with either. I preferred the Air Ride bags simply because they and the hardware appeared more robust. If you go with the bags I recommend adding on-board air for ease of adjustment. PacBrake also has air bags and their products are excellent. I installed one of their exhaust brakes on my 2007 Ram 2500 5.9 and loved it and it never gave a problem for 6 years. All that said if I was over my truck's carrying capacity I would move up to more truck.
