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.
They worked out OK. They installed just as the instructions said. I was hoping for 3 inches or more of lift but only got about 1.5 inches at 100 lbs. With 55 lbs of air the motor home drives much nicer.over all nice experience with sd truck nice and fast work is done by team
I installed these air bags on a 2012 Tioga Ranger mother home. The installation was pretty straight forward. It probably took 4-6 hours to complete. The instructions were clear and everything fit as it was supposed to. I am please with the installation and operation of these helper springs and would recommend them.
I had the air bags and the remote control compressor installed on my new RV , it reduced the sag. By 1 1/2 ", which is huge. I don't bottom out as frequently and the remote compressor with controller make it very easy to change pressure in the air bags as conditions change. While the installation was more difficult and took more time than Firestone leads you to believe, it is value added to my Nexus RV. The install instructions were also a bit misleading. All and all I got the result I was looking for and sdtrucksprings was excellent to work with, if you have a problem they are right there to make it right, Nick was outstanding. I would buy from them again
