Question:

What spacers should i use with my truck and the ride right system. my truck has leveling blocks in the back. The blocks are supposed to raise the truck 1.75 inches. i am not sure if i should get the 1.5 inch spacers or the 2 inch spacers

Helpful Expert Reply:

I recommend going with the 2 inch spacers, # F2366, if you plan on using the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs. It is better to have the spacer take up more room between the bag and the frame or axle. Using a spacer that is smaller that the lift on the truck would reduce the effectiveness of the air bags.

Keep in mind, these spacers will not fit Ride-Rite kits, # F2350 or # F2286. If you can tell me the year, make and model of your truck, I would be happy to make a specific recommendation for you.
