Question:
Can this system be installed WITH airbags? I have Firestone 2582 bags that I’m happy with but hear great things about this system too. If it’s physically possible to run both, do you guys have any experience with anyone running the combo?

There is only one other suspension enhancement that we carry that will work with the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2582 that you currently have installed on your 2018 Ford F-150. The TorkLift StableLoad Suspension Upgrade w Quick-Disconnect, Stainless Steel # TLA7310S or Black # TLA7310. These allow for you to reduce the gap between the lower overload spring and other springs when you are hauling a heavy load. When you are just driving the F-150 without the additional load you can simply turn the wedge out of the way with a 3/8" Ratchet # PT84RR.
The RoadActive Suspension # RAS3611-Y will not fit with the Firestone Air Bags, as they both mount to the spring pack above the axle. There are some vehicles that you can use them in tandem as the mounts will not interfere with each other. I have not had any experience with both of these systems used together but they both do have their individual benefits that would work well together.
