• Recommended Air Bags for a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 w/ a Diesel Engine
  You are correct, with that diesel engine you are limited. The best option is going to be the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers item # AL88288. These have a 5,000 lbs load leveling capacity and come with custom fit brackets that attach to your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500's frame. They do not require drilling unless you already have 5th wheel brackets installed. They are compatible with in bed hitches but you'll need to drill some holes on both sides....

• Differences In Firestone Ride-Rite F2709 and Red Label F2613 For 2023 GMC Sierra 3500
  The differences between the Firestone Ride Rite # F2613 and the Red Label # F2709 for your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 Crew Cab Long Bed is the air pressure and max weight capacity. The Ride-Rite # F2613 are rated for 5,000lbs and 100 PSI, where the Red Label # F2709 are rated for 7,500lbs and 150 PSI. Since you have only 2280lbs of pin weight there is zero reason to go with the heavy duty bags, as you are well within the range of the # F2613 so that's what I recommend. I do also recommend...

• Air Helper Spring Fit for 2022 Ford F-350 SRW 4x4
  The Firestone # F35FV Ride-Rite kit fits some 2022 Ford F350 SRW 4x4 models. To determine if it'll fit your truck, you'll need to measure the distance from the TOP of the jounce bumper stop to the top of the axle tube, as shown in the provided diagram. If this distance is 40, 70 or 80mm, then the kit will work. If its 50 OR 55mm, Firestone doesn't offer a compatible kit. If the measurement IS 50 or 55 mm, the Air Lift # AL23FJ will work. You might also be interested in an on-board air...

• Recommended Air Bags for a 2023 Ram 2500
  Hey Robert welcome back! Given the suspension in the Ram truck's I do think you're going to see benefits by adding a set of air bags to your 2500. Not sure if you've gotten your new camper and taking it for a trip yet but I am guessing you're going to experience quite a bit of sagging if you having already noticed it.

  That is an interesting description Donna and I know exactly what you mean. There's two options to add Firestone airbags to your 2019 Ford F-350 dually. Both have a 5,000 lbs load leveling capacity and are compatible with in bed hitches. Which one you need will be determined by whether or not your truck is 2WD or 4WD.

• Will Firestone F2582 Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs Change Ride Height of 2019 Ford F-150
  At the 5psi minimum recommended by Firestone, installing their # F2582 Ride-Rite kit will not change your existing ride height, as long as your suspension isn't worn and is in good working order. If the suspension is worn, it could slightly raise the ride height. Also, you might need a lift spacer depending on how much lift has been added. If the lift is less than 1-1/2 inches, you won't need a lift spacer, according to Firestone. If the lift is greater than 1-1/2 inches, you will need...

• Does B&W Offset Gooseneck Coupler Reduce Towing Capacity of 2018 Ram 2500
  That's a smart question but the B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler # BWTEXA4200 actually has a towing capacity of 24,000 lbs and vertical load limit of 6,000 lbs which is still quite a bit more than the 5th wheel towing capacity will be for a 3/4 ton truck like your 2018 Ram 2500. Keep in mind the your towing capacity will be limited to the lowest-rated component of your towing set-up; for example, the maximum fifth wheel towing capacity of a 2018 Ram 2500HD is 17,980 lbs and that is...

• Best Suspension Enhancement to Reduce Squat on 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty When Towing 5th Wheel
  So the issue you are having with squat on your 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty will actually not be resolved with either of the SuperSprings suspension kits you mentioned. Those will help to a point, but they aren't going to resolve squat because they are going to flex with weight on them so your truck is still going to squat. To prevent squat the best suspension enhancement option for your 2019 F-250 is going to be air bags. The reason is because they allow you to fill the air bags to whatever...

• Can I Install Air Bags and SumoSprings on a 2024 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4500?
  Hey Pj! Those are not going to work together. The SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-338-47 are going to mount in the same position on your axle and use the factory bump stop perch to attach. Out of those two options, I recommend the Pacbrake Alpha HD Air Bag Suspension Kit item # PB49RV. These are going to offer more adjustability and support in your Mercedes rear end. They have a 5,000 lbs capacity and you're not going to effect your ride when your rear end isn't loaded...

• How Much Air Pressure For Firestone Air Helper Springs FSN-21-9015 On 2014 Ford E-450
  I would be happy to help! The FSN-21-9015 number you provided is actually the part number to the sticker on your Firestone Ride-Rite Helper Springs, and not the model number of the helper spring kit itself. Since you have a 2014 Ford E-450 there is only two possible kits to have installed, either the Firestone # F22ZR or the Firestone # F2153. You can tell the difference in these kits by how they are installed, the # F22ZR installs using a U-Bolt that goes around the axle tube, where...

  Yes, you can absolutely add the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613 to your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 that has a 5th wheel hitch in the bed. The reason you can do so is that the air bags install to the bottom of your truck's frame so the air bags will not interfere with a base rail kit like the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck # C16429-204 that fits your 2020 Silverado 2500. That means you can use a fifth wheel hitch like the sliding Curt A20 # C16541...

• What Does EC Error Code on Firestone Air Compressor Kit Indicate
  Hey Robert, thanks for all of the info you mentioned. Basically you have an air leak in your setup and that is causing your compressor to run and run and eventually it shuts down as it can sense there's a leak and there's no reason to keep trying. You will have to find the leak. Easy way is to put soapy water into a spray bottle and spray the bags and the lines until you see bubbles indicating that's where the leak is and fix as needed.
