I haven't bought yet but read good things about these, both on these forums and separately. Will likely purchase before our next big trip

Love the Firestone Bags!!! They work great for me, I run 40-42 PSI and the Gladiator actually ride better!!! Redarc trailer control, 4.88 gears and a well-balanced trailer. Install is super easy, suck all the air out of the bags, put the cap and use zip ties to fold over. I have done few that way with no problems at all. Enjoy....

I pull trailers all the time. I have four of them and then I have a boat. Been doing it since 2019 and 212K miles with my JT.
For four years, I've had the Airlift HD bags for the Ram 1500 on my Gladiator. They're a little bit longer in case you decide on a lift. But, because they're HD, they're a little bit stronger. But they also ride a little bit stiffer as well. https://www.airliftcompany.com/shop/60818HD
Last year, I changed over to the Airlift Loadlifter Air Spring. They help with more weight. When aired up they work good, but you can't leave them aired up for everyday use. They're stiff with no weight or when not pulling any weight. https://www.airliftcompany.com/shop/57415
Either option is a good choice. And if you ever decide to do a little harder wheeling, you still can.

I had the Airlift 1000's for a couple of years and they worked great. I swapped out my rear springs for taller ones and upgraded to the Airlift 1000HD's. They continue to ride great, support tons of weight when needed, and do not hamper suspension travel. As far as I'm concerned, every pickup should come with rear airbags right from the factory.

I’ve been running Airlift 1000s for a few years inside 2-inch Mopar lift springs. Stiffen when needed for load. Out of the way when flexing for wheeling. Easier than expected install. No issues at all. Great addition.

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned the Timber Grove Air Springs made for the Gladiator.

I have the Timber Grove CRM Coil Replacement Mount
https://timbergroveenterprises.com/shop/19-up-jeep-gladiator-s-4-lift-crm-axle-mounts-sq4331060
Controlled with the Airlift Wireless Air dual bag controller and the wireless air tank upgrade. Allows me to keep the ride height I want for any weight load.

Timbren was an option when I got the airlift springs. The only reason that I didn't go with Timbren is because it mounts to the axles. The airlift springs sit in a cup. I can deflate the bags and still rock crawl like they aren't even there. They work perfect with my 3.5" lift because my lift my bump stop plate is removed which means the bags don't touch when deflated and it maintains the normal, stiff as hell, lift kit ride.
I have air springs on my Ram as well and they mount to the axles. Nothing wrong with that setup at all as it seems like timbren has a great product. But, because of my uses, I just didn't want that type of mounting setup for my jeep. That's only the situation for MY jeep. If not for that, I would've went with Timbren.

I followed exactly what you meant. But just to make sure others aren't confused, you're meaning to say "Timber Grove" instead of "Timbren".

Yes!!!!! The words are so closely related that once I got timbren in my head, I just kept typing it. Thanks for the correction!I followed exactly what you meant. But just to make sure others aren't confused, you're meaning to say "Timber Grove" instead of "Timbren".
