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.


Firestone Ride-Rite air spring components

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.

easy install and a smooth ride, keeps my truck level when pulling my 30ft camper.



by:

They are fantastic! Easy installation and work flawlessly. I would purchase them again.



by:

Product was as described. Installation video was most helpful as were the written instructions. Bending the bolt plates was absolutely necessary and was the most difficult part of the installation. I dropped one inside the frame, after retrieving, 30 minutes later, I drilled small holes in the handles and put a piece of wire thru them so they could be easily retrived if dropped again. Tested as recommended with 70 lbs of pressure and the truck's rear end popped up about 4-5 inches! Can't wait to try then with the trailer!



by:

First impression are the parts look and feel top quality, excellent packaging and delivered on time. The install was somewhat difficult on the first side, trying to get the blind nuts inside the frame lined up to start threading the bolts in, but second side took 1/4 as long. Aired up the bags to about 15% to take a test drive, very impressed with the solid smooth feel of the rear suspension along with a quiet ride. Ready to tow.

The suspension kit works great and installed perfectly

Quick install. watch the video that is available on etrailer it is much better than the directions that come with the product. 9 Just Ordered Another One For My Neighbor.

Everything installed with no real problems other than the 4 bendable plates that are supplied to install the mounting bracket on the top are a POOR design. All 4 fell apart when i tried to tighten them up. Definitely need a redesign on those.

Just about everything about buying, installing and using the air suspension is 5 Star. As a novice at these things, I did have sort of an issue. I could not seem to get uniform pressure in the bags. I would think I was at say 25 and the next thing I knew it would be 15. I emailed etrailer.com and they immediately provided me a phone number for the manufacturer. One call later, I pulled out the valve stems and let some minuscule debris come out (likely from the tube cutting) and they have worked perfect every since. For the cost and effort involved, I will never be without an air suspension again.

A year,? It was somewhat over that. Anyhow the F-150 was replaced with a F-250 and new Firestone air springs were ordered in time for the newer bigger Toy Hauler. Maiden voyage to Ben Avery Phoenix and the Clark County shooting complex Las Vegas went awesome. Always do air springs and always use etrailer.

Bought to install on my dads truck. He likes to use his halfton like a one ton. Saved on tire and suspension wear and improved steering and braking while loaded. Cant complain.



by:
FordF-150

My first time ever-mounting the F252 in any vehicle I own. I was dubious as to whether I could install the item myself. And truthfully, installing the first (left) side took about an hour and a half. I have to say without the instructions being as clear and precise as they are, I would have given up and sent them back.
The (right) side was, I will say a "Snap". Thirty minutes more and the set was in and ready to pressure test. In conclusion, following the instructions and the will to get the job done has given me a feeling of being safer when hauling heavier loads with my F-150. The stability the F252 adds to hauling cargo and distribution of load from back suspension to front suspension makes hauling a much safer and sounder way to drive as well as carryl loads on my trailer.

Super in every way. After installing the first one the second was installed in less than 12 an hour.Mind you rhis was my first do it yourself install. Quality in performance has been very satisfying. It is recomended that 5 of air be a constant when not being needed. An ocassional check of the minimum requirement of 5 pressure keeps the air helpers functioning with no bumpiness.



by:

Easy to install and works great!



by:

Good quality product, instructions are clear and kit was complete.

The frame-mounting with the tabs is cheezy, and quite difficult on the driver side where access hole to the frame is obstructed by wiring/hydraulic lines. I recommend a solution that only uses access from outside of frame -- like a toggle bolt... after all the torque was only 20 ft-lb.

Rcerne

I agree with Rob B on the frame mounting tabs. Definitely a two person job lining up the tabs with the bolts. Other than that it was an easy install and well worth the money. If you are going to haul a heavy trailer this is by far the way to go!

Lloyd C.

Installed a set today on my 2013 F-150. Nothing about this product is cheezy. I owned a repair shop for 35 years and was impressed with the quality of this kit. A toggle bolt would not replace the steel plate firestone uses for the bracket mounting inside the frame . All in all, a first class problem solver. Lloyd Church Powell Butte, Oregon

It’s the best thing I bought for the weight issue! Awesome product!



by:
2013 FordF-150

The product was as advertised and installation was straight forward,especially with the video on the website. The only reason it's not 5 stars is one of the Schrader valves to fill the bags was broken In the box.the box was not packed well and heavy metal parts rolling around in the box during shipping broke the valve had to rig up a new one from a fleet store in town,which means they don't match and the no drill bracket had to drill a bigger hole to fit the new part.



by:
2013 FordF-150

It was easier to install the ride rite air helper springs than to remove the wheels from my ford f 150. Note. The nuts are a type that need no lock washers. so they go on with a degree of effort. You will need an air ratchet with at least 80 fp lbs torque. Or a very large forearm. Follow the online instructions and with average mechanical skill and basic tools installation is not too difficult. Faster an easier with air tools. Shipping from E Trailer.com was better than expected. One day ahead of scheduled delivery. Ran a road test with my 29 foot trailer and felt noticeably more solid. Excellent product and supplier. PS. Get a 9/16 deeeep well socket.



by:
2014 FordF-150

Works great, install was relatively easy, videos from etrailer.com were a huge help. Someone asked the question if the Ford rear wheel well liners (aftermarket accessory) were compatible with this product. I can confirm that yes they are compatible, but you will need to cut about a 2" x 7" strip out of the liner around the upper frame bracket. It will be very obvious what you need to cut, and it is very simple to do (a sturdy pair of scissors or a pair of tin shears will work to make the cut). Once the frame bracket is installed and the wheel liner pushed into place above it, you won't even be able to tell it has been cut.



by:
2014 FordF-150

After one year of owning the Firestone air bag kit I couldn't be happier!! I should have put them in before I picked up my 28 ft travel trailer. Much improved handling and very little bounce over big ruts. They never leak down. I definitely recmmend them.



by:

Installation was well documented in the instructions. It probably took me longer than some because my wheels had bonded to the hubs and would not easily release. After installation was completed, they worked very well. When not carrying a load I lower the air pressure to about 10lbs and the smoother ride is restored. I use them primarily for towing and have been very happy with them.



by:
2013 FordF-150

Product was as described, It arrived on time and etrailer.com did there job well with helpful videos and advise.
I would advise having a good lift to install these air springs I didn't and it was a challenge and took much longer than expected. I installed the air springs on a 2013 F150 4x4 super cab and jacked the truck up and did it from a creeper on the floor. It just took longer than I had hoped but the installation and instructions were fine and the product seems of good quality.



by:
2009FordF-150

Everytime I order from eTrailer the products arrive faster and the installation gets more enjoyable. I used the air bag system to correct trailer sway and vehicle sag on my '09 F150. Putting these brackets on the suspension was awsome with only three common hand tools and the results are wonderful. I needed the adjustability of air ride to compensate for light loads when empty and of course heavy trailer weight when pulling a 20ft enclosed v-nose. This system allows me to maintain level vehicle travel with just a portable air tank and a low pressure tire PSI gauge.



by:
2013 FordF-150

The product is very high quality, well built and designed. Installed easily in about an hour and a half. Watching the online video helped. Inflated them to 40 psig to start with trailer attached, still had a little bounce so I went to 50 psig. That completely cured the problem. I used a bicycle pump with a built in gauge it worked great to accurately set the pressure. Not much pumping because it is a low volume of air. It did make the ride much more firm. Set the air back to 5 psig when not towing feels like they are not even on the truck. Made the towing experience much more enjoyable. No sea sick passengers.



by:
2013 FordF-150

Great product, easy to install. Going to put to put them to use next weekend.



by:

The air bags are great quality products, but some of the hardware is very poor quality. While I was installing the ublots over the leaf springs to the bottom of the bracket the stamped or pressed to deform lock nuts seized up and I snapped off half the threaded portion of the ubolt which itself should've been of grade 8. Love the kit just very disappointed with the hardware

    Yes, the Firestone part # F2525 will fit your 2010 Ford F-150 FX4 that is already outfitted with the 6 inch Pro Comp Stage 2 block lift installed. Often times lift spacers are required for truck that have lift kits, but, in your case, the block lift does not lift the frame further away from the suspension.

    The Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs # F2525 can be installed using the Union Tee for 1/4" Tubing # F3025-1 if you intend to always have both air bags inflated evenly. This may be desirable if you will be towing only, and not hauling uneven cargo loads. If you do have occasion to haul cargo loads that are not even from side to side, then you may prefer to still be able to inflate the bags individually to allow for compensation for that uneven load.

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement To Reduce Sag When Towing Trailer With 2012 Ford F-150
    If you have sag at the back of your 2012 F-150 when towing a load that stays pretty consistent then the best way to help with that is by installing suspension enhancement like part # TFR1504D for a 4-wheel drive or part # TFR1502D if you have a 2-wheel drive truck. These are rubber springs that do not effect the ride of your truck when it is not under load but when towing will become more rigid to help add additional support.

The ride quality of your 2013 Ford F-150 will be improved and reduce strain on your rear suspension. You can adjust the air pressure between 5 psi to 100 psi as well. Adjusting the air in the bags should be adjusted to suit the weight of the load you are carrying. I also recommend the Firestone level...

  • Can Vehicle With Air Helper Springs Be Serviced on a Lift
    Air Lift and Firestone use different methods of attaching the air springs to the metal plates. Firestone uses a crimp roll design that's very strong, strong enough to handle the weight of the axle. If the vehicle will be lifted by the frame, you'll want to deflate Firestone air springs like # F2525 so they can extend to their maximum length without being damaged. It's not necessary to support the axle. Air Lift helper springs like the # AL88200 you'd looked at use a band clamp design that's...

  • Gooseneck and Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for a 2014 Ford F-150
    It really depends on the air bag system you go with and the gooseneck hitch you choose. A lot of the time the mounting brackets for both systems will occupy the same area of the trailer frame so there will be interference. Looking at the air bag systems for your 2014 Ford F-150 like the part # F2525 it would seem pretty hard to fit a hitch in that area. A better solution would be a Timbren system # TFR1504D that will give you the same support as an air bag kit and then a gooseneck hitch...

    I do have a rear suspension enhancement option for your 2013 Ford F-150, however, the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2525, are not compatible with most fifth wheel frame brackets that mount to the outboard side of the vehicles frame rail.

    Firestone does indeed offer replacement air tubing. It's available in a 18 foot length as part # F49ZR or a 22 foot length as # F99ZR.

For towing that large of a trailer I would recommend having the extra capacity of the 5,000 lb kit. For a wireless compressor kit the Air Lift WirelessAIR kit part # AL58WQ is a great option for if you like the idea of controlling the bags from a phone app or the part # AL74000EZ if you prefer a kit that comes with a remote.

  • Would Firestone Air Bag Suspension Prevent Trailer Sway
    I doubt the air bags would do what you're wanting them to do. Their primary purpose is to suspend the weight of anything carried in the bed of the truck. It sounds as if you would be the perfect candidate for an anti-sway bar like part # RM-1139-177. A sway bar would do a much better job of accomplishing what you're looking for. If you can tell me which type of anti-sway system you're using, I might be able to make further recommendations.
