Question:
I am looking at buying a used Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle from your website. I have a 2006 ford f-250 RWD 6.0 diesel I saw two that were almost new with the title saying minor scratches. Can you confirm they will fit? Also is there any kind of warranty on them being that they are used?

Hello Nicholas,
Yes, the # F2398 will be the right fit for your 2006 Ford F-250 Super Duty RWD Diesel, because your truck is RWD it makes it a 2 wheel drive model. So any of the "used" items on that page will work for you. The returned items are not supposed to be used, most of the returns are from people ordering the wrong fit for their truck and not figuring it out until they are trying to install them. All of our "used" items do come with the full warranty, we offer them at a discounted rate because either they were scratched and dinged up while someone was trying to install them on the wrong fit, or they were dinged up in transit. Another thing to look at with our used items is the hardware, it will be listed if there is hardware missing, I do not see that listed on any of the "used" items at this time.
If you are looking to install a good air compressor to go with the bags I would check out the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs - Remote - Bluetooth - EZ Mount # AL74000EZ, there is even a scratched up one on there for a bit of a discount as well.
I have attached a couple of review videos so you can get a good feel for the products before purchasing. Once you get things set up, please let me know what you think about them. Hope 2025 is you best year yet!
