Good question. I actually bought new shocks that are for raised trucks, but I had to compress them quite a bit to get them to fit. Maybe they are bottoming out? I have a different pair (stock) of rear shocks coming tomorrow and will try those.

Right now, the truck is level front and back. If I add any more air, it’ll start to look jacked up in the back.

If I get new springs, I suppose I could get springs that have a built-in 3-4 lift. This would take away the blocks, and I could inflate the airbags more.

Edit: I mainly got them, for when I’m towing. If I had known, I could only inflate them a little bit, I probably wouldn’t have bought them. Maybe I have the wrong type?

There’s a 1.5 inch spacer under the air backI can remove and maybe that would help?

Edit 2: I removed the spacers under the airbags and there was no pressure on the system. So, it’s leaking from somewhere.
