Question:

I looked over the install instructions for F89ZR airbags on a 2020 F250 and it says to measure the top of the axle to the top of the tang on the block to determine what install hole on the bottom bracket to use. I believe 80 mm or a little over 3 inches is the highest setting. I have 4 inch rear blocks and the measurement from the top of the axle to the top of the tang is 3.5 inches which exceeds that measurement. Will this kit work with 4 iinch rear blocks or will I need to goto a 3 inch rear block. Im not sure the bottom bracket will rest on the axle with that measurement. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

You are going to need to use spacers with the Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F35FV since you have a lift kit on the truck to take up the additional space you mentioned. So what you'll want is a 3 inch spacer kit part # F2368 to take up the additional space created by the lift and you'd be set.
