kelderman air ride on the ford F450. yes or no?!? my 4 year review of the system.

my 4 year review about the full kelderman air ride system for my ford F450. #keldermantrucks #keldermanairride #ford #f450

[texastea]

I have the 5-6" lifted version of this Kelderman lift for 2 years now, 50k miles. Even going down oilfield lease roads often the lift has held up great. Still smooth as the day I put it on the truck. I don't think I will have another truck without it.

Also, best thing I have done was ditching the 19.5's. I'm running Alcoas on AF adapters with the beads machined for LT 22" tires. Nitto Ridge grapplers in a 295 are basically a 35 x 12 and they have more capacity than the GAWR for either end of the truck by a large margin but ride so, so nice. Truck doesn't make a mess in a wet yard anymore either.

Thank You for giving an honest review, alot of people just talk about how it looks. I am planning on buying a 2022 or 2019 F450 and adding to also gonna hauling a 40 Foot Open Gooseneck trailer

Wow that is really nice… also cool to see the lift put to work and not just sitting looking pretty

You can get them to sorta customize your install, like retaining your spare tire, by putting slightly smaller airtanks on the side of the frame by your steps, tbat can retain the factory power steps!

Nice way to do it to keep the spare

Man I got 06 f350 cab and chassis. The leaf spring pack is thicker than a pickup f450 I'm sure. I drove it about an hour across town when I bought it bare chassis and it was a back breaker. I need to build a flatbed for it, bit I definitely want to do a full linked air bag system. I've driven a 2010 f450 pickup, unloaded it wasn't nearly as bad as my current truck. So I'm glad to hear the bags make a big difference, that's what I'm looking for👍
Also based off your experience I definitely intend to get heavy duty link ends for my build

Finally got the Hankooks on. Looks Awesome.

You probably know this and maybe you were just in the process of swapping out those heims, but that jam nut seen in the video on the track bar needs to be tightened up to the tube to keep the heim joint shank threads from beating back and forth on the ID threads of the track bar until it pulls the threads and the rear axle walks out from under that truck.

I am on the fence about this kit myself for a 2020 450 and just don't know if the chucking and bucking from the trailer is from the truck or the trailer. I wish someone close to me had one of these that I could just drop the trailer and replace the truck with one of these and get a back to back to show me how much of the problem is truck and how much is trailer. Headrest just hits you in the back of the head over and over with any real amount of tongue weight on the truck.

Since the rear is on 2 circuits, is the leak in the dump or what? Have you tried to track it down yet, and did it always leak down overnight or only after a while did it start?

Thanks for the video. Best demonstration of one of these setups I have seen.

We're interested in this system for our 2022 F450 (on order), strictly for ride improvement. How's the ride compared to stock suspension? Thanks!

Thanks for the video and information. I was quoted approx $20K installed on a 2022 F450. I’m trying to get my wife to buy into the idea. Is the ride and handling difference enough to justify the price? We’ll be pulling a 24K lb fifth wheel and this will be my daily driver when not towing. I’ve told my wife the cost of the air ride is cheaper than me getting a car for daily driving.

[situationaladventures]

Great info! Video review/update since you’ve added it to your 2022 coming soon?

[josho]

Nice rig, what are you running for exhaust/tune ? I own a 2020 f450 and I’d like to wake her up a bit . It’s a cab chassis so it’s detuned and has less power from the trucks with beds on them .

[unknown_truckers]

So they put bushings and not Johnny joints that's interesting

[albertcooper]

Nice rig set up! What brand of tires are those?

[Burroughsbikebuilds]

I happen to catch that Baldwin oil filter on your truck. Can you go through that?

[anotherartist]

How would you compare the ride quality vs a stock or Traditional style lift kit? Unloaded ride quality. Thank you

[tylersharp]

Please tell me How do you set up Handel’s towards big heavy load

Selamat sore sudah bisa d jual d indonesia

Please list tire brand and size, they look great and although they are tucked under fender(legal). Thanks for the review, would the kit significantly help the ride if the truck is unladen daily driver? 70-80 miles daily
