10-4.
I asked because I though if you were local I'd come down and check it out.
I like my new setup so much I'm just looking for a reason to drive anywhere.
j/k - I'm glad to hear you're having it done right. Looking forward to seeing pics of your new setup.

This conjecture is for slow99. WDH would be better in all ways to air bags. You won't have a good ride with them blown up and truck empty. My experience with air bags and a sway bar on an F-250 was not good. Stiffened up the ride to the point of discomfort, even with no air pressure. Was good with the TT, but not without. Might not be that way on a F-150, but is can be an expensive experiment. Will you haul heavy without the trailer? Then air bags would be a positive.

Thanks for the info. I'm only planning on using the trailer to haul a little 16hp tractor or a side x side + a 4-wheeler. The trailer is probably overkill for what I'm using it for, but figure it'd be more versatile (compared to like a 16' utility trailer) should my needs change in the future.
You might still consider a WDH and to correct the attitude of your truck with the trailer hanging off the back of it.
This way you won't have to mess with the truck for driving it unloaded/unhitched.
