Question:

Does the Model 267C1.5 Air Spring have a Jounce bumper built into it? I havent been able to find literature to confirm the cross section of that air spring. A dealer installed the Firestone 2600 kit on my 2017 F350 and left the Stock bumpers off. Is OK to leave the stock Jounce bumper off of the truck?? Any information and guidance would help. Thanks.

The part number for the Model 267C1.5 air bag that fits the # F2600 kit is # F6781. It does not have an internal jounce bumper in it like some models do.

Per the installation instrutions of the # F2600 kit the factory jounce bumper should be reinstalled.

I contacted Firestone to double check and they confirmed that the factory bumper should be put back in to keep the truck from bottoming out.
