Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
hi everyone, we have a 2012 ram 2500 diesel towing a 11,500-12,000lb sunnybrook raven 5th wheel. the 12,000 lb is fully loaded. is anyone familiar with timbren springs for load leveling? we are experiencing that the bed of the tuck is definitely unlevel & the leaf springs are flexing beyond level. i'm familiar with the air springs but thought these might be a more user friendly choice. any help and avice would be much appreciated! thank youl
It seems many RVers choose air bags for their tow vehicles. The bags allow you to adjust the ride depending upon the load.
My current truck came equipped with a rear air ride suspension from Link. The air bags make for a very smooth and stable ride when towing. Unfortunately the ride when empty is a little choppy.
But with add on air bags you would be able to dump the air in the bags when empty to soften the load.

Timmbrens are a great choice. Install them and forget it. Never have to adjust air pressure and all you do is hook up and go. I put some on my rig in 04, still got'em. They only work when the truck squats a bit.
