NOTE: This kit will not fit the 1997-present Light Duty F250 Under 8,500lbs GVWR. Use this Sport-Rite Kit for Light Duty.
Ride-Rite air helper springs are the workhorse of Firestone's air helper spring line. The double convoluted air springs offer maximum load capacity as well as years of worry-free service and support.
Ride-Rite air helper springs are installed between the frame of your vehicle and the suspension, providing load support by using air pressure.
Firestones air springs have become synonymous with quality, durability, and customer support that is second to none. Ride-Rite air bag kits utilize a pair of convoluted air springs which can be adjusted to accommodate your load capacity. The Ride-Rite series is capable of 3,200 - 5,000 lbs. of load level capacity. After installed, your ride will be enhanced by reducing inter-leaf friction which will keep your truck level, reduce suspension fatigue, and increase the stability of your Ford vehicle.
Overall, Ride-Rite air bags have many advantages for your vehicle and will help to improve steering control and braking effectiveness, level headlight beams, reduce tire wear, keep leaf springs from permanent sagging, reduce bottoming out with air cushions between the axle and frame, absorb road shock, and match your vehicles load for an overall improved ride.
Excellent kit. Good instructions. Bolts up really well. Having the onboard compressor with gauge is the best way to use them, adjust pressure as it's needed. I have been using this system for well over a year. I regularly haul loads of hay on my trailer that run 18000 to 19000 pounds. Helps keep the truck level and definitely improves the ride.
Easy installation, everything I thought they would be. Great quality product, fast shipping.
My first time to buy a product from you will review after I've recieved and in stalled.
This did not fit my 1995 F-350 with dual rear wheels. Though I tried many times to contact customer service and get these exchanged for some that would fit, I got no answer either to phone calls or emails. I had to make the trip without air bags. Since I cannot return or exchange them, I am stuck and someday I will make mounting fixtures or use these on another truck. Not a happy camper and I would say go elsewhere, preferably local to get air bags that will fit and responsible service. Sincerely, David Parker
The product is well made and performed beyond my expectations. Although a little difficult installing for the first time as a amateur, it was well worth the time and result. Along with the air bags, I also added traction bars, 5&12 blocks and a much larger stabilizer bar and my F250 is literally glued to the road with no body sway. What a great combination. Its not vette but close for a 4 ton truck.
great kit easy install no more sag f350 towing 12.000 lb. no problem
