Question:
Hi. I would like to install air bags on my Excurion 2003 4wd diesel. I would like it to auto level and not have to mess with bicycle pumps etc. Is there a kit for that? Thanks

Hey Pete, we have just what you are looking for with the Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F2255 and then for an automatic leveling compressor kit you'd want the part # F2186-2047 and you'd be set! What will you be towing? My neighbor had a diesel Excursion growing up and I thought that was the coolest SUV ever haha.

Thank you for the reply. I'm glad you asked what I will be trailering. I am a little confused on what the best options are. I will be towing a 36ft travel trailer. I have always used a weight distribution hitch and my other truck had an air suspension from the factory. I would disable the suspension and hook up the trailer with WD hitch. It was almost perfectly level and then the suspension would make minor adjustments as my kids got in etc. Do you think I will need the airbag system with the WD hitch? There is so much conflicting information especially in forums. I also looked at the sumosprings as an easier to install option but I don't want to spend money on something that isn't going to be helpful or even detrimental if it doesn't allow the WD hitch to work properly. Thanks in advance for your help. Pete
