1998 Dodge Ram 1500
Empty truck, no load, ride too firm, every bump (chicagoland) kills.
Can I put in Air Bag helper spring, and remove some leaves from leaf spring to bring back to level ride (stock) then by just filling bags to level and get a softer response to bumps. Then when I load up, just add air??
I have spoken to:

and they said the above kit would do it, all I would do is intall kit, and remove some inner leaves. Looking at the truck there is already a part in the location for the air bag, it looks like an overly large bump stop, almost like a small 4 in. dia. black rubber cylinder non-expanding air bag. I will have a better look tomorrow when it's not raining.
