Loved how small this air compressor is! Also, it works perfect for our airbags for towing and having the ability to adjust the air on the fly!




by:

Great kit. The only difficulty was choosing a place to install the mini compressor and controller. Instructions were detailed and easy to follow.




by:

This was an easy install. Everything that was needed was included with the kit. I purchased this kit with the air suspension kit for a Ram 350. This made a good truck even better

Still trouble free and easy to use. I have had no issues with it and would buy another if needed.

I order was delivered sooner than expected , which was great arrived on Friday
installed on Saturday . the hardest part of the install was deciding were to mount the air pump . I have seen were others have mounted it on the spare battery tray easy
place to mount unless you need that spot for a spare battery in the future . the install
instructions were simple and easy to read . I would buy another set of Firestone air bags and air pump in the future when needed . I will send pictures of the installed
products which I have purchased from etrailer
Thanks to Tim and the gang at etrailer

Review from a similar Air Command II Compressor in Air Suspension Compressor Kit


This kit pairs perfectly with the Ride-Rite bags on my 2012 F350. Installation was pretty simple. I mounted the pump in the driver side rear seat storage area and wired it to one of my Upfitter switches. There was plenty of air line and pigtail wire. I was using a bicycle pump on a shrader valve and this beats the crap out of that. I tow a trailer with 960 pound tongue weight, 2 kayaks on the tonneau cover and a long bed full of gear and this levels it out perfectly. I use this with a weight distribution hitch and still have minimal sway.

Review from a similar Air Command II Compressor in Air Suspension Compressor Kit


Not a truck geek, but just an everyday driver. So I am not as in tune with the vehicle performance as those who run them hard on a regular basis.
It seems to me that the bags do the job. I can inflate/deflate them at will with onboard compressor. I originally put these on as I was installing a wedge camper on the truck and had stock suspension. I have since added a leaf which causes less air being needed on a daily basis.
I run about 10 lbs now unless adding a bunch of weight.
Happy enough especially since they are holding air.

Review from a similar Air Command II Compressor in Air Suspension Compressor Kit


The compressor kit was fairly easy to install. Finding locations for the compressor and filter was the biggest challenge. I own a 14 Ram 3500. I had Schrader valves in the back bumper initially. It is so much more convenient being able to hit the toggle switch in the cab.
Thanks etrailer.

  • Control Panel Wiring for Firestone Dual Electric Air Command Part # F2178
    I combined the diagram from the instructions and an actual photo of the rear of the switch panel, which will hopefully make things a bit clearer for you. The ground wire from each switch, which would be the wire that connects to the bottom right hand terminal from each switch is combined together and would be grounded. The two wires leading from the other terminals on each switch are combined together and connected to the relay. The illumination for the gauge on the switch panel would...

  • Is Air Tank Necessary with Firestone Air Command II F2178 on 2003 Dodge Ram 3500
    According to my Firestone Air Spring representative, the Digital Air Command II that you referenced, part # F2178 may be used with or without a tank. Having an air tank will allow the springs to be inflated more quickly, as the air will be coming from a compressed tank. The stored compressor can also be used to inflate tires if necessary. I've linked you to an install video and some FAQ articles you might find helpful.

  • Dimensions of Gauge Panel of the Firestone Air Command II F2178
    I spoke with my contact at Firestone about the dimensions for the # F2178 and they informed me that the height is 2.9” and the length across is 6.5”. The depth is kind of tricky to measure because its open in the back and depending on where you stop your measurement will determine what measurement you get. For example there is tubing sticking out, wires, a couple of studs and so forth. You'd want around an inch of clearance behind the panel for tubing clearance.

  • Firestone Air Spring Compressor Installation Location on a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd
    We did a Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs install on a Dodge Ram pickup some time ago with a compressor and a single in cab control. We installed the compressor on top of the drivers side wheel well liner. This location is close to the vehicle battery and pretty much protected from water and road debris so the compressor will last longer and the air lines can be ran easily into the cab to the controller. When installing the compressor you can mount it just about anywhere you want...

  • Troubleshooting Bounce Issues With A Gooseneck Horse Trailer
    A sway bar isn't going to help reduce the bounce you've been experiencing with your horse trailer. It sounds to me like you have the PSI level of your air bags either too low or too high. If you don't already have an on-board compressor watch the PSI of your air bags and adjust accordingly to the weight of the trailer load then I recommend the Firestone Air Command II - Analog Gauge w/ Standard-Duty Compressor - Dual Function - 130 psi # F2178. This compressor has a dual-gauge control...

  • The Firestone Ride-Rite air springs under the single function compressor system, like # F2158, will only allow you to add air to the air bags jointly. So, if your camper is causing your truck to lean, then it would be hard to try and level out the springs with the single function system. I contacted Firestone and they agreed with me that you have two options. One, you can disconnect that single function system and install the separate air inflators for each bag. This will allow you to...

  • Recommended Kit to Inflate/Deflate Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs on a 2005 Ford F-250
    It depends on why you have the airbags in your 2005 Ford already. Are you towing or are you loading the truck's bed? Or both? Single function compressors, like part # F2158, are generally for towing because the weight on the truck's axle will be centralized coming from the hitch. On the other hand if the additional weight is loaded into the truck bed, such as a truck bed camper or some other cargo, the weight often isn't equal from one side to the other so a dual function, like part...

  • Firestone Air Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for a 2014 Ram 3500
    Yes, for a complete Firestone air suspension enhancement system designed to work on your 2014 Ram 3500 4WD that includes everything needed to install the kit you would want part # F2705. For a compressor kit to make inflating and maintaining pressure in the system you would want the part # F2178. This allows you to have control of the air bags at any time so you don't only have the manual inflation valves that require planning ahead.

    A dual path setup like the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2423 that you referenced would be a great solution for you. Since you would be able to inflate either side of the bags to different air pressures you would be able to compensate for your uneven loads due to your glass rack. For a compressor system that would allow you to inflate either bag to your preferred air pressure that features a gauge that will allow you to view both air bag pressures you would want the Firestone...

  • Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for a 2014 GMC Sierra Carrying Blue Ox Overbilt Carrier
    Air helper springs would be a great idea for use with a motorcycle carrier on your 2014 GMC 1500 as long as your truck has the weight capacity for this carrier plus the weight of your motorcycle. You will need to consult the owners manual of your truck to determine this. For that the part # F2430 would be a great choice. Check out the install instructions and video I attached for more info. For a compressor kit to help regulate the air pressure of the kit you would want the part # F2178.

    The Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs # F2525 can be installed using the Union Tee for 1/4" Tubing # F3025-1 if you intend to always have both air bags inflated evenly. This may be desirable if you will be towing only, and not hauling uneven cargo loads. If you do have occasion to haul cargo loads that are not even from side to side, then you may prefer to still be able to inflate the bags individually to allow for compensation for that uneven load. The ultimate convenience...

    Adding a compressor to the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2609 on your 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 was a great idea, and I can help you with what those black wires are for behind the gauge of your compressor, though from the looks of it you have the Firestone Air Command II # F2178.

  • Rear Helper Springs/Suspension Enhancement For A 2020 Chevy Colorado
    I recommend the Firestone Sport-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2587 for the 2020 Chevy Colorado ZR2 Diesel. The Firestone springs are the best option because of their 4 layer rubber construction to protect them against punctures compared to the 2 layers of the other airbag options. They are also designed with a rolled crimp seal that keeps the bags anchored compared to a metal band that can easily be damaged. These particular air bags are rated for 3,000 lb capacity.

  • Can Air Line Chock Attach Directly to Firestone Compressor Kit or Is Air Tank Required
    The accessory fill port of the Firestone Air Command II # F2178 that you referenced need to go to a fill tank and then from there an air hose. Firestone has stated you can't connect an air hose directly to the fill port. The most similar kit we offer that has the tank and the air line is the part # F2168 which I attached an install video of that cover an install of the entire kit plus shows how the air line gets connected at 3:30 mark.

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for a 2020 Ford F-150 XLT
    We have a variety of rear suspension enhancement options for your 2020 F-150 XLT and the best one really depends on what you plan on using it for. If you will be carrying a load quite often then an air bag solution is best because you can customize it for each load you carry. However, if you're only wanting a little help every now and again then you're better off with a jounce-style spring that requires no maintenance, but only helps out as more load is placed in the bed.

  • Can Truck Air Bag System Be Utilized to Distribute Weight of 5th Wheel Camper?
    For a 5th wheel camper the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2355 (fitting a 2004 - 2015 Nissan Titan) will not help distribute as much as it will help with load leveling.

  • Do Firestone Compressor Kits for Ride Rite Kits Require Air Tanks, Advantage to Air Tanks
    The Firestone Air Command II # F2178 that you referenced does not require the use of an air tank. Some of the kits come with air tanks that will make inflating the bags quicker, but this kit does no come with an air kit nor does it require one. For a similar kit that does come with an air tank you would want the part # F2168 instead. The bags would inflate much quicker with this kit like I mentioned.
