Airbags with off road?
Hi. I found this forum because I'm towing an enclosed trailer (2k lbs empty) and have some sag in the rear of my jeep when I tow. 2008 JK, 3.5 lift, 35's. Heavy aftermarket bumpers.
I contacted Airlift but they are not responding. It sounds like a set of rear airbags would solve the sag, but my question is does it change 4wd performance? I take this thing on trails all the time too, do you just let all the air out? Thanks if anybody knows!

A weight distributing hitch is a good idea but the airbags can really help as well. Airlift and Firestone both offer them. Based on all the problems I had with Airlift I'd suggest trying Firestone. Installation is easy and you can adjust the pressure according to your needs.
