Question:
What is the comparative difference between the Firestone F2550 and the Air Ride AL88390 I have a 2001 F-250 super duty 4x4 4 door short bed, pulling a 5th wheel RV.

Expert Reply:
Firestone Ride-Rite kit # F2550 is going to be a higher quality than Air Lift # AL88390 but both are going to get the job done well. Both kits would work for 5th wheel hitches because they mount on the inboard sides of the frame rails. I have included a link to a video showing installation of the Firestone kit for you.
To be able to add or remove air from the bags from the comfort of the truck cab I recommend Level Command kit # F2158.
