Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle
I installed this product on a 2007 AWD Ford Fusion. It was easier to install by completely removing the coil springs during installation. Also, for the AWD model, I had to remove the rubber bump stops and then grind down the rubber supporter for the top of the new blue air bag. There was no need to use the 90 degree elbows and drill a hole in the jounce mount due to a straight vertical hole which was perfect for the air line so there is one less potential leak point. Car rides perfectly and has the stance now that Ford should have done from the factory.

I recieved my air bags a couple of days ago. They were super fast with delivery and everything was accounted for. Installed it myself on my 2005 ram 1500 4x4. Took around four hours. Simple instructions to understand. As soon as I completed the installation I hooked up a heavy gooseneck trailer and with jus ten lbs. of air it leveled the trailer and never dropped and inch more. Even when loading a horse into the front of it. I I havent pulled the gooseneck yet put pulled a bumper trailer and it handled well... even with out a load I can tell the difference with them on... very well made product and would recommend to anyone. Very satisfied customer right here.
ETRAILER HAD THE EXACT PART I NEEDED. EASY TO ORDER AND DELIVERED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

When another company failed you guys came through fast and a every helpful staff. I will recommend everyone I know to etrailer!
First, I would like to thank Terri N who took my order via phone. She made the order process fast and easy. My F1restone ride-right air ride F2299 shipped within an hour after I placed my order. Installation was relatively easy and the directions were easy to follow. The only thing was the torque spec were near the rear of the installation guide which I found after the install. I followed the steps starting at step 1 and contunued to the the last step of the install. I just think the torque specs should have appeared within the steps rather then at the rear of the guide. Otherwise it it is a great product and easy to install. 5 stars all the way around.

So far so good. I installed these in just over 2 hours on my 2013 Chevy 2500HD for help with my fifth wheel. I pull a 12.7k pound (dry) camper. My truck was level prior to airbags, but had really harsh bouncing over bridges, put holes, etc. The side to side way and roll was noticeable was noticeable as well. These bags put all of that to an end. I've towed twice with them and 35psi seems to do the trick (doesn't life the truck higher in the rear, and takes away the bounce and roll). I must point out that installation while straight forward, still had some issues with stock components. The parking brake cable and brackets had to be removed on both sides for the springs brackets to be installed. The passenger side bracket covered the OEM parking brake bracket location and the driver side is too tight of a fit without crimping the brake cable. My brake cable is no freely resting across the truck which I'm not a huge fan of.
High quality and easy to install. These air bags are working very well and keeping my truck level while towing my tow hauler.

Excellent product. I have used this brand before on a similar vehicle. Easy install. Prevents sag in the rear end while under load from either luggage or a trailer. Fast shipping. Great price. Thank you very much !!

Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle
Not impressed whatsoever. Powder coat peeling off right out of the box, bolts are not long enough for the washers to work and go through the nylocks correctly. Grade 5 carriage bolts with grade 8 nuts. Carriage bolts run into the brake lines unless you bend the brake lines out of the way. Bags don’t line up straight up and down no matter what you do. Brackets that attach underneath the axle bend ridiculously easy as well as the carriage bolts. For $[XX] I was expecting much more. Would not recommend whatsoever, if you want good bags, buy the air lift bags they are much nicer. Bought these to give them a try since this is where I purchased my gooseneck hitch from as well and as very disappointed. Would not recommend at all. etrailer service was great but this product is junk all around. The only nice thing in it is the rubber on the bags themselves. For $[XX] there should be no question in quality at all and the quality here is very poor.
Easy instalation and adjustments for different loads.

I install this for a customer that I have on the recommendation of etrailer as being the one that was necessary for this vehicle. On receiving the product was having problems as the truck was not set up the way that the illustration showed the truck was bought new by the original owner and had 50,000 miles and have never been modified spoke to fire stone about that at the recommendation of a trailer other parts were necessary, it turned out to be quite a mess. Mini phone calls hours of trying to make something work. The system failed at about 500 miles customer was very upset. I spoke to eat trailer no help at all referred me to fire stone no help at all. It was just to say the way things go sometimes and they were very sorry. I ended up having to give the customer his money back very expensive for me all the way around very poor recommendation on what I should’ve bought for this vehicle very poor product service by a trailer and fire stone both so end result after turning the truck back to stock, I haul the airbag system that I purchased to the dump
Worked great. Easy to install. I use them on my F-250 while pulling a 12000 pound fifth wheel travel trailer and had no issues.
