The max payload for your truck (if standard cab auto) is 4952 lbs. or as low as 4250 for auto with CC. Air bags will not increase that but may help level out and improve loaded ride. Welcome to the forum, Hank

Nice combo you have there.have you hitch them up yet to see the droop. mine droops a small amount with the 5er on it. i do not use bags and have had absolutly no issues with it. as for high speed i don't 60 is my max. people sometimes tell me i'm #1 but i get over it and live to enjoy my trip

Three axles and backing up
Just wondering how the flex is on three axles and to what degree you can cut them when backing up? Got a pretty tight drive to back up into try not to go in neighbors grass. Lol

His grass will grow back. You may get more responses if you post in the Toy Hauler section of the forum. Those are the guys (and gals) that know about that stuff. Good luck with the new TH, Hank

Welcome Dodgeram3500drw6.74x4 to the forum!
I'm new here as well (about a month). The DW and I recently purchased a 2012.5 Raptor 410LEV. We really love it
Only had the opportunity to stay one night and that was a short shakedown at the CG by the dealer.
Hope you enjoy yours...cause we wil
Steve

We bought our 410lev in Apr12 and have had it out 79 nights and about 5000 miles. We've loved it.

to the forum! and congrats on the new TH!
We have a 2012 Raptor 410LEV as well and truly enjoy it. I have pretty much the same setup as you exccept my Ram is a MC. I do have air bags which makes a world of diffrence in the ride. No air bags equal riding on the overload springs which creates a pretty rough ride on bad roads.
We love the 410LEV layout...plenty of room. Ours will become our full-time home in the future. Hope you enjoy yours!
SJ
