Question:
I have a 2000 Ford F53 chassis with a Coachmen Santara MBS3600. It currently has Firestone Rite Ride airbags on rear. One of the bags is leaking and I would like to replace them both. Are there just replacement bags that meet this application?

Hey Rick, thanks for all of the information! It helps to pin down the exact replacement bag you need.
The air bag kit you have on your 2000 Ford F-53 is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2170, and to just replace the bag you need the part # F6781. This comes as a single bag, so you need to order 2 to replace both sides.
Are you planning on replacing the air bags yourself or having a shop do it for you?
