Ratings & Reviews
A great product with easy installation directions. The Firestone Air Command air compressor keeps me air up, or down, for all of my heavy loads. I wouldn't have a pickup without one!
Absolutely love them! It took a minute to get acclimated to them after going without or a much lesser system. Now every time I hook up to a trailer they get adjusted. Live the on the fly ability to adjust according to the road and load conditions. I have and will continue to recommend these to all my friends that tow.
Mounted to the frame of truck.Been operating for a year and works great.
The compressor is a big plus for the air bag helper springs I installed. I love that I can tow my fifth wheel and adjust the air as needed. As soon as I park the trailer I can adjust the pressure to 5 lbs for a really smooth ride and then air them back up when I hook up to the trailer again.
Works great! Routing air lines into the cab and finding a place to mount the controller was a bit challenging for my 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, but the end result is very clean and useful. I should have installed this years ago when I originally put air springs onto this pickup truck. My primary use is to level the load and provide more support for my Lance camper. Adjusting the air spring pressure is much easier and quick now!
Once I got the ecu code in, everything went smoothly. My frame was too wide for the component bracket. A couple threaded holes and I was back in business. Looks nice, works great.
This kit pairs perfectly with the Ride-Rite bags on my 2012 F350. Installation was pretty simple. I mounted the pump in the driver side rear seat storage area and wired it to one of my Upfitter switches. There was plenty of air line and pigtail wire. I was using a bicycle pump on a shrader valve and this beats the crap out of that. I tow a trailer with 960 pound tongue weight, 2 kayaks on the tonneau cover and a long bed full of gear and this levels it out perfectly. I use this with a weight distribution hitch and still have minimal sway.
Seems to work well but after having it in the winter I would not recommend putting this on the frame rail as it tends to freeze up! I intend to take it off of the frame rail and install in the engine compartment!
I pull my boat with 25lbs,my 5th wheel with 85lbs and driving around town 5lbs all at the press of a button.The system works perfectly.
This is a must buy to go with the helper bags. Remote or phone makes it easy to control the truck. I love it. Truck handles like a dream with the bags and air.
Great little air compressor for my 2014 Ram 2500. Nice fit under the bed. Made the truck ride better when towing my fifth wheel and when empty
Putting this in by yourself is a bear when lying on a creeper and a 2019 Chevy Dually doesn't have a lot of options for location. Read that as 1. But it is on and all wired up and working fine. Put airbags on a previous truck years ago without a compressor, I was a poor GI. This is SO much better. Just takes a little time, think it out and plot your path for cabling and hoses to avoid the exhaust.
I gave this product one star because there wasn't a option of 0. One of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. #1. The ECM, or computer, whatever they want to call this thing that runs this system, It is just a monitor. When your air psi drops to low all it does is log a code and tell you you air system has a leak. I would think it would kick on and build the air psi up, nope, it just logs a code and shut down the system until you clear the codes. #2. You have to take off the pump stops above your axle to install the ridiculously stupid system. So I thought ok, there must be bump stops inside the air bags, and ordered it anyway. Well I was wrong. When you take the bump stops off over the axle and you come upon a huge bump as you can do traveling around the good ole USA, the air bag bottom out, so you have the full force of the huge bump you just hit coming down on you axle, not good. We hit a bump that snuck up on us in Florida over by Okeechobee Lake that was possibly the biggest bump I have ever encountered in all my travels, and I swear I though it has cracked my axle, no bump stops to protect it. As soon as I got home I took this lousy system off my truck and put something better on, a much better system.
Great compressor with the option of using the included remote or my cellphone. The two presets allow for quickly switching between normal empty bed setting and the setting for when the 5th wheel is connected.
The compressor gets extremely hot if it runs for even a short while getting the bags up to around 80 pounds. The ECM module also does not retain the last setting if you place the system on switched power. I choose switched power due to how hot the compressor got and am not willing to risk it running nonstop if there was a leak in the system. When I initially installed it there was a small leak and the compressor ran nonstop. There is supposedly a timeout but it ran nonstop until I disconnected it from the battery. I have previously owned an extreme duty system which worked incredibly well.
Easy to install
Did not install it yet, but it sure is looking good and promising
Super fast shipping and everything looks good.
Overall nice product and works great. Only thing I’d have liked to see is an additional bung to be able to drain off water in the tank if it builds up.
The air lines that come in the kit are plastic and kink to easily.
This has worked out great on our 2020 1 tonn Chevy dually. Really happy with how it has performed leveling and balancing loads. Only issue we've had is one of the bags leaks slightly, and we haven't been able to stop it.
The system is functioning flawlessly. I made sure this was the correct application for my needs through meticulous window shopping prior to my purchase. etrailer had GREAT online videos to help with the my search and the install. That takes a lot of time and effort to produce so I returned the favor and bought through them. Their pricing is competitive. Thumbs up etrailer. Thumbs up firestone.
The kit was missing one piece but I spoke to firestone and they sent one over posthaste.
