• Which Firestone Air Bags Fit 2024 Ford F-350 King Ranch
  Hello Chris; the Firestone Airide Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F95FV you ordered will fit your 2024 Ford F-350 King Ranch. The Red Label are a great choice for your 17,000 lb horse trailer since they have the higher capacity at 7,500 lbs. If you don't already have one I also recommend adding an air compressor like the Firestone Air Command Heavy Duty Air Compressor # F2168. This will allow you to adjust the pressure in your air bags from the cab of the truck no matter where...

• Differences Between AirLift and Firestone Helper Airbags For a 2019 Ram 2500
  I recommend the Firestone 7,500 lb Ride-Rite Label Air Helper Springs part # F2706 for the 2019 Ram 2500 because of their durability compared to the Air Ride Helper Springs part # AL57589. Both of the brands have a 7,500 lb capacity like you mention however they are constructed differently. The Firestone bags are constructed of 4 layers of rubber compared to the 2 layers of the Air Lift springs. The Firestone bags also use a crimp rolled seal to keep the bags anchored compared to the Air...

• What Air Bags do You Recommend for My 2022 Ram 3500 CA60 Chassis Cab?
  I have an air bag solution for you. Unfortunately, if you have a 2022 Ram 3500 CA60 chassis cab, the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL # AL57531 will not fit. This is because these air bags are only designed for standard pickup models. However, we do have air bags that are confirmed to fit. The only option we have is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted # F2478. The Ride-Rites are designed for chassis cabs and fit both 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive models. With these air...

• Should An Air Bag Leveling System Be Inflated Before Or After A Trailer Is Hooked Up?
  When using the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F36ZR on your 2021 Ford F-350, you will want to inflate them once your fully loaded camper/trailer is coupled with the hitch. This way you can it to the exact right pressure for level towing. Filling the bags beforehand may get them to where they need to be, but odds are you will need to inflate them a little more or even deflate them if you have too much air. This is why it is always best to do it after the...

• Where Do Firestone Ride Rite Air Springs Vent To When Using an In Vehicle Switch Panel
  The air spring suspension enhancement systems when using a compressor switch like the Dual Function Air Spring Control Panel # F2188 will vent the air into the cabin of the vehicle. The air travels to the gauge to monitor the psi, and exhausts the air into the cabin directly behind the switch itself. You can see in the attached photo of the Replacement Switch for Firestone Electric Control Panel # F9039 there are two connection points. The upper is the input of air into the switch and...

  The Firestone air bag kits are the best around and would be what I would recommend for your 2019 Ram 2500 that will be towing a fifth wheel. They are the most reliable and longest lasting. So for your truck you'd want the part # F2598 which is a confirmed fit and will work well. It's compatible with fifth wheel rail kits like what you have as well.

• Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2019 Ford F-350 Dually with Lance Camper and Bike Rack
  Thank you for all of the information! I definitely have some recommendations for you but I do encourage you to get that OEM suspension looked at especially if you think it used to look different prior to your last trip. Any suspension enhancement system is designed to work in tandem with your OEM suspension so if your OEM is messed up then that puts more strain than necessary on the aftermarket parts and everything will wear down quicker and it could get ugly. For a beefier air bag kit...

• Recommended Analog Air Compressor To Replace Firestone Air Command F3
  I have a replacement option for you, but unfortunately it is not possible to convert your Air Command F3 Compressor System w/ Wireless Remote and Light Duty Compressor F2581 to use switches to control the system. The option I recommend is to replace the system with the different system like the Firestone Air Command II - Analog - Heavy Duty Compressor & Air Tank # F2168 which uses two switches to control the air pressure in each of your air bags, allowing you to get away from the remote...

• Is Air Lift or Firestone Air Bag Kit Better for a 2012 Ford Super Duty
  Both the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL # AL57596 and the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2703 are excellent choices for your 2012 Ford Super Duty but when compared to each other the Firestone # F2703 is the winner. This is due to the rolled crimp seal that connects the bags with the metal end plates. The rolled crimp seal ensure that the rubber air bags don't ever get damaged by the metal end caps. Typically you only see that happen if there is no air pressure...

They have a double convoluted design and use a rolled crimp seal to keep the bags securely anchored. These have a load leveling capacity or 5,000 lbs and a no-drill installation.

• Comparing Firestone and Air Lift 7500 Air Bag Systems for a 2022 GMC Sierra 3500
  Both the Firestone Red Label Ride-Rite # F2709 and Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL # AL57541 air bag kits are excellent options for your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500, but I recommend going with the Firestone over the Air Lift simply because the construction of the air bags and mounting plates are stronger which means they will be more durable and last longer. The Firestone kit uses a crimp-rolled seal to connect the bag to the mounting plate while the Air Lift essentially uses a clamp to help secure...

• Air Compressor Kit Recommendation for Use with Firestone Ride Rite Kit that Can Inflate Tires
  Since you are going to install the Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F2582 the best solution I have for you would be a compressor kit that has an air tank built into it plus an air chock so that you can inflate a tire if needed. For that we have the Firestone Air Command II part # F2168 which is a compressor kit that has that and would be a great solution. The air line is a coiled design that can expand to 25 feet in length too so it would be long enough as well.

• Comparing The Air Lift 5000 and the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label For the 2019 GMC Sierra 3500
  The better option for the 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Pickup with 4 wheel drive is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2709 over the Air Lift Load Lifter Air Helper Springs part # AL88338 because the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs are completely compatible with an in-bed hitch without drilling and the construction of the bag is better. The Air Lift Load Lifter Air Helper Springs will fit with in-bed hitch but it will require drilling into the frame of the truck. The Firestone...

• On-Board Compressor Recommendation for use with Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs
  There are several options for an on-board compressor for your Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2299. Since you tow your gooseneck every day, I suggest using a heavy-duty compressor. If you would like to be able to level the air springs individually, I recommend the Firestone Dual Air Command II # F2168. This kit comes with a pneumatic control that mounts in the cab, a super-heavy-duty compressor, and a 1/2 gallon air tank. The air tank helps to inflate the air springs faster....

The Firestone air bags will allow you to level out the load without sacrificing the ride quality like with the other...
