Helpful Expert Reply:
To determine what size lift spacer to use on your vehicle with Firestone Ride-Rite Air Springs, measure the distance between the upper and lower brackets of your air helper spring kit. The spacer needs to be the same length as the amount of lift applied to the axle on which the air helper spring is installed.
On the rear, if the distance between the brackets is 8.5" to 9.5" it would be a 3" lift. You will need the Firestone Lift Spacers for 3" Lift, part # F2368.
If the distance between the brackets is 10.5" to 11.5" it will be a 5" lift and you will want to use the Firestone Lift Spacers for 5" Lift, part # F2373.
I am including installation instructions for the Firestone lift spacers.
