Hey Doug! The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F35FV are the right kit for your 2026 Ford F-350 FX4 dually. However, you will need to measure to be sure it fits. The distance from the top of your rear axle to the top of the jounce bump stop must equal 40, 70 or 80mm for this application to fit. The same is true for the Red Label # F95FV with the higher rating.

If you're looking for a complete kit with an air compressor you can choose from the following:

-Firestone Ride-Rite Air Bags w/ Easy Mount Compressor - Wireless Control - Single Path - 5,000 lbs # F44XV

-Firestone Ride-Rite Air Bags w/ Easy Mount Compressor and In-Cab Control - Single Path - 5,000 lbs # F74XV

If you decide to get the Red Label air bags the max psi is 150 so you will need a heavy duty compressor instead like # F56VV (single path) or # F99VV (dual path).

Are you adding the air bags for towing or something else?

Hey Doug, did you get a chance to measure the distance between your axle and jounce bump stop to see if the Firestone Ride-Rite kit fits your F-350? Once you confirmed that, how did the setup work out for your towing or other use? Your feedback could help others looking at the same air bag options.

@RobinH Robin, I don't have a Jounce bump stop and I have 8.5 inches between the axle and frame. Thanks for any help with the needed airbags Doug

@DougH I'm double checking with Firestone to make sure that still applies on the 2026, and if you can just follow the instructions for models without the jounce bumper stop to install them on your FX4.
