trailer or operating in the bobtail mode.
Suspension Conversions
WARNING: When operating a loaded vehicle, the driver must
keep all adjustable axles on the ground at all times, supporting
their share of the vehicle's load. Failure to do so can overload other
axles, tires, wheels, springs, steering components, brakes and frames,
resulting in early component failure, loss of vehicle control, possible
property damage and personal injury.
It is not recommended, or approved, that suspension conversions be
performed. However, it is understood that, on occasion, aftermarket
add-on suspensions are installed by others on the truck chassis which
allow operator control for weight transfer from other axles (i.e., air lift

maintain battery charge when using the upfitter switches for extended

Each switch provides 10 amps of electrical battery power for a variety of
personal or commercial uses.
There is also a relay box located on the passenger side end of the
instrument panel. See your authorized dealer for service.
Switch access location is in a connector located in the engine
compartment. More detailed information can be found at
