Hauling a heavy trailer or loading the bed shouldn’t leave the rear sagging or your headlights pointing skyward. The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs add up to 5,000 lbs of load-leveling capacity to keep your vehicle level and stable under weight. By installing between the frame and rear suspension, these double-convoluted air bags reduce strain on the rear axle, help maintain steering and braking control, and keep even load distribution when towing or hauling.
Every job or trip brings a different load, and this setup lets you fine-tune for each one. You can manually adjust air pressure between 5 psi and 100 psi with separate valves for each side. Add pressure to level off-center loads or drop it down when running empty for a smoother ride. This flexibility means better handling when loaded and a comfortable ride when not—without needing any special equipment besides a simple air source.
Rough roads and heavy loads can make every bump feel like a hit. These air springs absorb road shock and soften contact between axle and frame to prevent bottoming out. Four layers of reinforced rubber with a braided wire girdle create their double-convoluted shape, giving strong burst pressure resistance and cushioning that keeps the ride smooth even when fully loaded.
These air springs aren’t built just for show—they’re built to work. The rubber bellows are secured to corrosion-resistant metal end plates using a rolled crimp seal that locks out leaks. With durable brackets, hardware, air lines, and valves included for manual inflation, every piece is designed to handle the demands of towing, hauling, and daily use without giving up reliability.
Installing serious suspension support doesn’t have to be complicated. The Ride-Rite kit includes custom brackets that mount between your axle and frame using provided hardware. Depending on your setup, drilling may be required, but everything you need comes in the box—from fittings to air line tubing—so you can mount the system cleanly in your own workspace using basic tools.
