Can Firestone Red Label Helper Springs Use Same Mounting Brackets As Air Lift 7500 Helper Springs?
Question:
what is the weight rating, I have the 7500 bags now my truck camper is 5560 lbs. and they are maxed out, running at 95lbs. max is 100 and will they fit my existing hanger brackets. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The Firestone Red Label Air Helper Spring # F7703 you were looking at carries a 7500lb weight capacity, but will not work with your Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 # AL57595 helper spring kit installed on your truck.
Instead I recommend Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2701 which is designed to fit your 2005 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 pickup and while it still has a 7500lb capacity, it is adjustable between 5 - 150 PSI to allow you to get the exact support needed for your 5560lb truck bed camper.
To keep from having to manually inflate the helper springs when carrying the truck bed camper then I recommend adding an on-board air compressor, the Firestone Air Command II # F2219, which works perfectly with helper springs rated for up to 150 PSI, and will allow you to adjust the helper springs individually to level uneven loads.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
