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 Chevy / GMC 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.
Ordering and delivery was easy and on time. Kit installed in about three to four hours. All parts were there. Really happy with this product. I towed a 26' travel trailer into the mountains with ease and the load was perfectly level and handled fantastic. I also used an anti sway hitch. The truck looks and rides great.
installed okay...materials needed and instructions all good. My only problem was that it isn't really the correct solution to my need... I discussed this with one of your reps ...very nice and helpful. perhaps i wasn't clear. I was having trouble with towing tongue wt .and sagging truck rear. i had a wt distribution system set up for me and thought the rear sag was a spring problem or something.... turns out the wt distribution system needed adjusting and that airbags are not a good fit for long distant rv travel over different elevations and in different temperatures ... constantly changing the weight distribution adjustments as the airbags change pressure.. lifting and lowering the rear end of the pickup. be well ernest
Installed on a 2005 Tundra 4x4 that I use for towing a camper. Really helps with a heavy lead in the bed or with weight on the hitch. Tows straight and adjustable height for a great ride. Unloaded you have to keep some air in bags and it does gives a more bouncy ride .
The Air Bag Helper Springs work great. I hauled three loads of gravel weighing 5,000 lb. to 5,300 lb. over ten miles of rough road (tires at 65 lb.!) without a problem. I'm happy with the bags and their versatility
These were pretty straight foreward to install and have worked flawlessly. I would not hesitate to recommend this product. Very pleased.
