It's time to prep the new truck for summer towing and hauling duties. The truck 2021 F350 CCLB 4x4 Platinum. Wants: Rear airbags, rear swaybar, onboard air system to run my 28" Grovers. I am back and forth about an auto leveling system for controlling the bags. Pros and cons please. I am also reading up on traction bars. I have limited access to a two post lift. All installs will be done in my garage. Thanks in advance for all of the help!

I really like my OUO traction bars and would recommend them. Didn’t need a lift to install them. I had a bad experience with an auto level bag kit and will probably stay manual forever because of it. Does the truck have a rear sway bar on it now? What is a 28” Grover?

My truck does not have a rear sway bar from the factory. I will probably go with a Big Wig bar. The 28" Grovers are air horns that I got years ago and have been on every Super Duty that I have owned.

They sound like a Fire Truck. I'll wire them to the stock horn circuit and people will drop their F'ing cell phones when I get on them.

so i have been by a number of people that they love my setup, you can decide. I have twin 580 compressors (2 years old, no issues) two 5 gallon air tanks, VU4 air valve to a dash mounted switches and digital display showing tank and each bag pressure. mounted on the truck i have a 50ft hose reel and an extra quick connect air fitting on the bumper of the truck. My truck came with the sway bar but i feel like its definitely a must, but the traction bars aren't that big of importance. I also pressure my air tanks to 200 psi.

I have a viair constant duty that will fill up to a 37” tire and I have the viair 2gal. Air tank, it’s all wired to my number 1 upfitter switch. And I also have the RideRite air bags but I have individual valves at the rear for each bag, and I plumbed in 2 other air ports one under the passenger door through the pinch weld of the cab and one out the rear near the tow hitch receiver so I can hook my air hose I keep under the rear seat up and use it on anything and kinda reach most places with it for filling up dirtbike and quad tires when we’re out camping.
