    Looking at buying a 379. I wanted to know the difference between low air-leaf, air-leaf, and air trac. Which one is better? Which one should i stay away from?

    I pull a flatbed and gross out between 97k - 102k. Thanks for the help.....

    I'd go with the Air leaf; it rides nice and high and walks throug uneven terain well. low leaf sways too much and bottoms out alot (if you are north of 112k any way) air trac is great, but doesn't quite ride as nice as the air leaf; it DOES however -perform better off road.

    my 2 cents worth

    I recomend the air leaf, better ride, easier to service, don't seem to have the issues with broken springs and u-bolts like the air trac
