I vote for Timbrens havings used both and now only timbrens. Timbrens also have a 6k rating and a lifetime warranty vs most air bags 5k rating and a 1 year warranty.

Check out SuperSprings as well before making a decision. The are easy to install, self adjusting and nothing to puncture and only come into play when you have a load in the bed. I prefer boon docking to rv parks so the likelihood of a bag puncture increases when you get off the pavement. They have worked well for me.

I have airbags and like them. I have never used Timbrens. When I did my install, I had not heard of them.

I have timbrens on both of our trucks that pull our Ragen. They work great and no worries. They don't make contact until there is a sufficient load on the bed.
