Hey guys,

My family wants a camper. We really like a bumper pull coachmen. 30 foot long bumper pull and 7900 pounds dry.
I don't want to get rid of my raptor for a hd truck. I was looking at those rear assisting airbags. I had them on my dually and they did the trick. My question is if I put those Firestone bags on my raptor, will the stress from towing where the bags mount to the frame cause the frame to bend? I know they mount where the frame bending has been happening and it has me cautious to add the Firestone airbags. Anyone running that set up? Any suggestions? I do not want to get rid of my raptor at all.
Thanks

I have the RPG 2.5 which comes with rubber extenders to help with towing. However I have a superlite toybox that maxes out at 7700lbs.

Take a look at this video for more options...
