- I do have a solution for your F-250 diesel.
I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs, part # AL88396. This system will work with tongue weight up to 5,000-lbs. It uses the air springs but also has internal jounce bumpers as a back-up in case the air springs should lose pressure. The air pressure can be adjusted from 5 to 100 psi depending on the load you are carrying.
Since you mentioned the 2-gallon reserve air tank I recommend the Air Lift QuickShot...

- The replacement remote control for the Air Command F3 Compressor System part # F2581 is the Replacement Remote Control for Firestone Air Command F3 Compressor Systems part # F9490.

You'd need to pair your cell phone to this with the Bluetooth signal the kit puts out. This kit is so new (January 2019) that I'd be shocked if your truck...

view full answer... - Recommended Air Bags Kit for Towing a 5th Wheel with a 2016 Ram 2500 4X4
- For your 2016 Ram 2500 I recommend going with Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs. We have these with 2 different weight capacities, 5,000 lbs # F2598 and 7,500 lbs # F2706. The 5,000 lb system should be more than enough since they will be helping directly with the pin weight of your 5th wheel, but if you plan on doing a lot of towing or utilizing your pickup daily apart from towing your 5th wheel the 7,500 lb kit would be more beneficial. Both of these are compatible with an in-bed...

- When using the No-Drill Mount Kit # F2588 to mount the compressor and electronic control unit (ECU) of the Firestone Air Command F3 Compressor System # F2581, you will simply select a location that is solid and secure on the body/frame of your Silverado 3500, trying to avoid areas that are not protected from debris and moisture.
You should only need to snorkel the air inlet filter if the compressor will be mounted to an exposed, wet location. Otherwise the air filter will attach directly...

- The Firestone air bag kit you'll want for your 2019 Ford F-250 is the Ride Rite part # F2605 which was designed to also allow the install of an in-bed hitch like the fifth wheel setup you have. Then for a compressor kit you'd want the Air Command F3 part # F2590 as it is wireless like you want and has a heavier duty compressor which allows it to inflate the bags quicker. Then for a mount you'd want the part # F2588 which gives you an easy to mount plate for the compressor that does not...

- Since spacers are brand specific, you would need to know what brand of air bags that you have so that you can install the proper spacers. From the picture that you sent, unfortunately there is no way to be able to identify the brand of air bags that you have. I reached out to Firestone to see if they could identify the air bags and they said that even though they couldn't identify them from the picture, you could use their spacers as long as the hole configurations are the same and the...

I recommend going with a Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Spring system. For your 4WD Ram you will to go with the part # F2598, unless you have the RED label. If that is the case you will want to go with the part # F2706 instead. Both are confirmed to fit with an in-bed hitch installed on your truck.

- There is a way for you to control the outstanding Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2706 by using the Air Command F3 Compressor System w/ Wireless Remote # F2590. This system has a maximum pressure of 150 psi, which is the same as the max psi of the Extreme Duty helper springs you referenced. I also recommend the No-Drill Mount Kit for Firestone Air Command Digital and Wireless Compressor Systems # F2588 to mount the compressor system on your '18 Ram 2500.
view full answer... - Best Firestone Wireless Air Compressor System
- I do have a wireless system for you but there really isn't a way that we can offer you to add wireless capabilities to your Remote Filling Station part # F2239. The only option I have for you would be to purchase a kit with wireless filling like the Air Command II Compressor System w F3 Wireless Remote part # F2592.
The Air Command II is one of our most well equipped compressor systems with wireless inflation, dual path controls, and an extreme duty compressor. You can always sell your...

view full answer... - Air Bag Suspension Kit Recommendation for 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty
- For your 2019 Ford F-250 the Firestone Ride Rite air bag kit part # F2600 is the best kit available. We've found that the Firestone air bags are higher quality than the competition so we recommend them the highest.
Then for a compressor kit that will make inflating and monitoring the air pressure easy we have the Firestone kit part # F2097. This kit has a heavier duty compressor too so it will inflate quicker.
view full answer... - 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.

- For an airbag kit that will work with an in-bed hitch on your 2017 Ford F-350, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2600 as this kit is specifically designed to be used with trucks that have an in-bed hitch. The airbags have a 4,800 lb max load leveling capacity. In order to operate the airbags from inside the truck, I recommend using the Firestone Air Command I part # F2097.

- The air bags in Firestone kit # F2701 have a maximum diameter of 7.52 inches at the widest point, compressed height of 3 inches, and extended height of 8.91 inches. Also, this kit does not fit the 2015 Ram 2500. The Ride-Rite Red Label kit that fits is # F2706 but its air springs are the same size.
Firestone air bags do not have internal bump stops. According to Firestone the reason that other air bags have those is because at lower psi the bags can fail at the crimps but Firestone's...

- Both the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4185 and the Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs part # AL60818 are good options for your 2017 Ram 1500. The only real difference between the two is their pressure rating. As you previously mentioned, the Firestone airbags are rated up to 70 psi whereas the AirLift airbags are only rated up to 35 psi.
Although the Firestone airbags are rated up to a higher psi than the AirLift airbags, they both have a maximum load leveling...

You can try cutting the bump stops so that they are 2 inches longer than what the installation instructions call for, but that has not been tested so you wouldn't necessarily know what the weight capacity rating would be.
