Firestone Ride-Rite Air Spring Basics
Firestone Ride-Rite springs are designed to increase safety and reduce the strain on your vehicle when you are hauling heavy loads or towing a heavy trailer. The springs partner with your existing rear suspension system to help keep your vehicle level, maintain even load distribution and increase stability. Hauling heavy loads or towing a heavy trailer can make the rear of your vehicle sag and the front end rise. This puts more strain on your rear axle and reduces contact between your front tires and the road, causing problems with braking, steering control and traction. By adding air springs to your rear suspension, you can help to level your vehicle and improve braking and handling. The air springs also help to level your headlight beams and reduce wear on your tires.
Adjustable Air Pressure
The air pressure in your Ride-Rite springs can be adjusted manually, side to side, to compensate for off-center loads. A centered load improves the stability of your vehicle by reducing body roll. The air springs will also help to absorb road shock and to soften contact between your axle and frame. This prevents bottoming out, thus improving ride comfort. Route the air line tubing for the springs to your vehicle's bumper to provide easy access to the manual inflation valves.
Air Spring Construction
Firestone's double-convoluted Ride-Rite air springs are designed to give you maximum load support and enhance the performance and ride comfort of your vehicle. The rubber springs provide cushioning between your suspension components and operate at up to 100 psi. The springs have four layers of reinforced rubber to ensure durability and enhance load support. A braided wire girdle creates the double-convoluted shape of each air spring, increasing the burst pressure of the spring. The rubber springs are attached to corrosion-resistant metal end plates with a time-proven, rolled crimp seal that keeps the bags securely anchored.
Air Spring Installation
Each Ride-Rite kit includes custom-fit brackets that connect to your axle and frame. The brackets provide the mounting points for the air springs. Drilling may be required for some applications.

Package came In a timely manner and was packaged very nicely. Just installed tonight on my 2002GMC 2500 HD 8.1L. install took about two hours. Hardest part was getting the old bump stops off the truck. Instructions were easy to follow and understand also included torque specs for each nut. After install was done I aired to 15psi and drove the truck and was not disappointed. Came back to the house and hooked my 8000lb rated trailer up with 7000lb skid loader on it and 30psi in bags the truck was level. Pulled it around town and on highway and drove a pulled great. This is a great product and glad I purchased. I will do a follow up after the winter and let everyone know how they Do in winter w 2500lbs of salt in the bed all winter.

This is my second set after 7 years on the old ones, which started leaking. They work well and are reasonably easy to install. I haul an atv in the truck bed while towing a trailer. These level things out and keep the ride smooth even when not heavily loaded.
I suggest a trip to the hardware store for 4 stainless nuts and bolts for the frame attachments for anyone that might someday want to remove them. Those rusted bolts hiding in the frame channel were a challenge to remove.

Good product could use better instructions for installation. Would be better if they placed them as 1.2.3. instead of paragraph sentences. The videos are helpful if they play properly. Took about 3 hours to install. Camping world wanted $150 to install them.

2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
I have had these air bags for a year now and love them. I own a 2007, 2500 Duramax and I haul a 32' 3 horse trailer with living quarters and the air bags give me a much smoother level ride. I installed them myself with ease ( I did not bleed or lose knuckle skin) and the directions where great. The only thing I wish I would have done is get the air compressor for the bags, but that was due to limited funds at the time but I will be getting the compressor this year.
by: Eucario Ruiz 04/16/2014
Excellent product. The installation was very easy, it only took me 45min to bolted on and have it working. The installation video on your website is excellent, very helpful.
Thank you to the etrailer team for the excellent service, keep up the good work looking forward to do more business with you.
Ps. Sorry didn't take to many pictures.

This is an excellent system for this vehicle. It has firmed up the ride a bit but it is very pleasing at about 7.5 pounds. I can not wait to hook up to the fifth wheel. It was very straight forward in the work to be performed and for me it is quite rewarding.

Easy to install. Directions are great, as are the videos. I also ordered and used the T piece to make it easy. Just pulled my trailer and definitely noticed a difference. Very smooth over bumps. Just FYI, even at only 5 PSI (minimum recommended) it raised the rear of my truck almost an inch compared to the height before install. Not a big deal, but if you leveled the front of your truck like I did to get rid of the rake, you will now have some rake again. Not a big deal, but just be aware. I used the lift spacers (item F2536) because I have 1.5" spacer blocks on my leaf springs. I basically hook up the trailer or load the bed, watch the back end drop, then hit the air bags with the air compressor until the truck is level again. Rides like a dream. Would definitely purchase again.

Still works great after a year. Definitely makes a difference in the ride quality when you have a heavy load. No leaks. I used the T so only have 1 valve to mess with. I like having the ability to dial in a little bit of rake in the truck Had previously leveled the truck by cranking the torsion bars in front, also have 1.5 blocks in rear. 2007 Duramax

Pretty easy to install. Instructions could be better. As usual, the next time would take half the time.
2009 3500 single axle Silverado duramax now seems to ride better without load. Will check it out under load soon.
Would recommend

Second time I purchase this product , installed them on a 2008 Dodge Ram and now on a 2002 Chevy Silverado. If you follow the instructions you won’t have a hard time , steps need to be followed in order to avoid double work. Great product , took about 3.5 hours to install.

Packaging of this product was fine, and delivery was on time. Pricing very competitive with other internet providers. Etrailer support is as expected....very good.
I and my neighbor installed this air bags in my 2009 Silverado 2500 HD Diesel to give me greater support while pulling my fifth wheel trailer (with a tongue weight of 2300 lb). Install took us about 3 hours to complete, with no problems what so ever (not even a leak in the air lines...which I worried about...cut them carefully with a razor knife). After the install and air test, I hooked up my fifth wheel and was pleasantly surprised how the ride improved. Would recommend this product. I put 30 psi in the bags and the results on the suspension we outstanding!

I'm a do-it-yourself repair person, so no professional training. And I'm not one to follow instructions, though for this install I did...
Installed on a 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 4x4 Duramax. When I bought the truck I had had the front end of the truck lifted to level it out, then put on tires two sizes up. I can't drop (don't want to drop) the front end back down, so I picked these up to help the rear end when I have loads or heavy trailers.
Easy to install! No special tools! In fact, only a 9/16 box wrench and socket, a 1/2 in wrench, a 13mm socket and pair of dykes to cut the zip ties. That's it! No lifting the truck off the ground (did remove spare). No leaks! Took about 2.5 hours (at my pace). Instructions were accurate, and what the paper instructions didn't say, the video that e-trailer has covered the rest.
Thank you!

The Firestone airbags were very easy to install. The only place that I scratched my head was for the torque values for the various hardware. I eventually located it at the end of the instructions. It is common in the better auto repair manuals to list the torque ratings in the drawings. Just an idea.
Since I'm somewhat OCD when it comes to mechanical work, I always have a torque wrench in hand for the final tightening.
Your instructional videos are a real time saver. Well Done!!!
The air tubing cutter worked as advertised. Nice, clean and even cuts every time.
by: Ray G.02/19/2014
Pleasure doing business with E-Trailer. Order was taken by Suzanne, as she was very helpful and knowledgeable. Order was received promptly and installation was straight forward. Air fittings were prepped with a red thread sealing compound for an airtight seal. No teflon tape required. Great product! Thanks E-Trailer.

Very easy install. Superior to super springs and the like as no noise when not under load. Made a big difference in pulling heavy fifth wheel RV. Recommend highly. No broken dishes.
by: Michael C.03/06/2014
When I first purchased the kit I thought it was over priced. Once I finished the install by myself, in under two hours, in my driveway, with only a few simple tools, the price looked a little better. When I added in the very heavy-duty construction and quality construction the price started to look pretty darn good. Well, as I sit here in Florida after the nicest 750 mile pull I must say that the F2250 kit is probable the best money I have spent in a long time. If you pull you will understand what I mean about the problem you have when you hit a number of bumps in a row. This product almost completely solves the problem. In addition the over-all ride is much better.

Easy to install and made huge difference in hauling a 13,000 lb tractor on a goose neck trailer with Chevy 2500 hd .
Did go with the "T" fitting to connect both bags together and it saves having to balance air between bags.
All parts are of quality materials and fit as designed.

Haven't installed them yet as I'm still recovering from surgery. But have past experience with air bags and love what they do for the truck . These are going on my 2008 chev 3500 drw . We recently traded our tt for a 40 foot 5th wheel . I waited till we had the new camper hitched up to order as I wanted to see how much it made the truck squat which was just 2 inches . But with the condition of a lot of our interstates and highways that's just a little too much . Can't wait to get them on I'm ready to go play . Etrailer service was flawless as usual the order was well packed no damage and arrived on time .

I installed the Firestone Air Ride on my 2009 Chevy 2500 HD Duramax. I am towing a horse trailer with LQ and felt like I needed the extra support. I installed them myself and it took about 3 hours. Going to try them out this weekend. etrailer is the best. They have excellent customer service and I would order from them again.

Was concerned if thls kit would fit a 2010 Silverado 2500 HD Quad cab with 6.5 ft. bed with a B&W fifth wheel turn over ball hitch. It took me 2.5 hours and every thing fit perfect. No problem with the instructions dead on, and the only holes I had to drill was in the rear bumper for the air fittings. Have had them on since November no air leaks or problems. This make my truck ride excellent with my toy hauler and other gooseneck trailer I have. Alot cheeper than a air pin box and does the same thing,no more chucking and bouncing. thanks

- Will Firestone Ride Rite # F2250 Intended for 2004 Silverado 2500 HD work on a 2500 LD ModelThe 2004 Silverado 2500 LD used the 1500 frame with the 2500 suspension, which is why the # F2250 which is compatible with the HD models won't work for your truck. For the 2500 LD model, you'll need to use the # F2190 Ride Rite kit, which unfortunately would require a total of four 7/16 inch holes be drilled in the truck frame. I've found that instead of beginning with a 7/16 inch drill bit, beginning with a smaller bit like a 3/16 and gradually stepping up in size makes drilling the hole...

Air suspension will solve your squatting problems when connected to your 5th wheel trailer. The air bags will also add some comfort to your ride when you are not towing.

They told me that as long as you have 6 inches clearance between the air bags and your exhaust you should be okay.

You can use the old soapy water truck on the bags and air lines, valves, and so on to locate the leak. The most common cause of leaks in air bag systems is an air line that was not cut straight using a tube cutter such as # AL10530. If you want to switch to a Timbren system I recommend # TDR1500DQ. They will fit 2 and 4 wheel drive models of the 2012 Ram 1500, crew and quad cabs. Or for regular cab models use # TDR1500DS. These springs will...
