Question:

Hope all is well I see they say you don’t need to raise rv when adding air bags ? These 23t models are pretty heavy in the rear I need to raise my 23t to fit the brackets and air bag in Will this bracket and air bag support the sagged springs once lowered? Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, once installed the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2603 will reduce the strain on your rear suspension. The # F2603 helps prevent permanent sagging and excessive friction on leaf springs. It will also reduce tire wear and improve steering control. These air helper springs absorb road shock and soften contact between the frame and axle to prevent bottoming out.

I would also recommend adding an air compressor like the Firestone Air Command II # F2168. This is a dual path system which will allow you to control the air pressure in each air bag from the cab of your motorhome. It has a heavy duty air compressor and a 1/2 gallon air reservoir allowing for faster inflation.

I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference.
