• Air Bag Kit Recommendation for Towing a 5th Wheel RV with a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500
  Thank you for all of the information! For your application I recommend going with the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 which upgrades your coil springs to an air style suspension for better control and support. We don't have an installation video on a 2011 1/2 ton but we do have an installation video of this kit on a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 that I'm linking for you to check out. Please not that none of our suspension enhancement kits will increase the weight capacity of...

• Replacement Mounting Parts Needed for Firestone Air Bags on a 2014 Ram 1500
  Hey Stephane, thanks for reaching out! I can check on the replacement mounts, but I wanted to reach out first and see if you're installing the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4185 or the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 on your 2014 Ram 1500? These install differently on your truck and we don't always have the replacement parts readily available so if you can let me know which one you're installing I can look for those parts for you.

• Raising an Old Travel Trailer to Make Towing Setup Level
  Before you go as far as adding air bags or lifting your trailer will a shank for the weight distribution system with more drop solve your issue? I've linked our selection if this is an option for you. I've also linked a couple of articles on weight distribution for you. With a properly rated and installed system you shouldn't need the suspension enhancement or over-under kits. Make sure the system you have is rated high enough for your total tongue weight. You need to find the tongue...

• Recommendation to Help Prevent a Lowered 2011 Ram 1500 From Bottoming Out When Trailer Towing
  Using a weight distribution system like the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET will help you reduce rear end sag while towing. This can help you with bottoming out while towing a car trailer. The Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 you are looking at for your 2011 Ram 1500 Sport is only going to be for vehicles which continue to ride at stock height. That is true for all of our air bag helper spring systems and they are only designed to help reduce sag and...

• Comparing Rear Anti-Sway Bar with Air Bag Kit for a 2018 Ram 1500
  Installing the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1129-135 on your 2018 Ram 1500 will help with sway while an air bag kit like the Firestone # F2595 will not only help with that sway, but it will also help with rear sag. If you're leaning towards something that is maintenance free and helps with the sway then go with the anti-sway bar. For something that offers more control and will help with rear sag then definitely go with an air bag kit. Let me know what you're looking to get out of...

• Air Compressor System Which Monitors Air Pressure Automatically In Air Springs While You Drive
  The Air Lift Load Controller II Compressor System # AL25592 will only maintain the psi for the low psi setting. It is not capable of maintaining the gauge setting while you drive. Instead I recommend the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System # AL58WQ. This compressor has the same up to 100psi rating for use with the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 on your 2010 Dodge Ram 1500. But with this compressor it is controlled from your smart phone using the Air Lift app. The...

• Firestone Coil-to-Air Spring Conversion and Compressor System For a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500
  Adding the Firestone Coil-to-Air Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 on your 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 will allow you to level your suspension when towing or carrying heavy loads in your bed. While this will not actually increase your suspension like a lift kit it will make up for the sag in your current suspension due to having a suspension system that is at least 13 years old. I recommend using the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System # AL74000EZ to control the air pressure in your air springs....

• Rear Suspension Enhancement Options 2022 Ram 1500 That Does Not Require Cutting Off Jounce Bracket
  Yes, if you are wanting to use the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88375 on your 2022 Ram 1500 you will have to cut off the jounce bumper bracket. We do have some other options for adding support to the rear suspension on your Ram if you do not want to remove the bracket. First the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs will connect right to the bracket. These can be acquired with 1,000LB Capacity # SSR-307-40 or 1,500LB Capacity # SSR-307-47. Best of all they...

• What Is the Per Bag Weight Capacity of the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Kit for a 2017 Ram 1500
  The total capacity of the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 which is a fit for a 2017 Ram 1500 is 3,000 lbs. That said, this only really translates to payload or pin/tongue weight so you won't ever have to worry about exceeding this figure. Firestone doesn't really rate each airbag individually.

• How to Choose The Right Air Compressor System for Firestone Ride-Rite Airbags
  There are a few things you will want to look for when choosing a compressor system such as: compressor size, single/dual function, and optional air tank. A standard duty compressor is capable of up to 130 psi whereas a heavy duty compressor is capable of up to 150 psi. The bigger the compressor you have the less work the compressor has to do which in turn creates less stress on the compressor. An underworked compressor will last far longer than an overworked compressor. You will also...

• How to Prevent Rear End Sag While Towing with a 2012 Ram 1500
  Yes, the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 is going to help take the sag out of your 2012 Ram 1500 while hitched to your boat trailer. This system will actually replace the leaf springs on the truck with a set of air springs. I would actually recommend you take a look at the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57365 instead because these will also help take the sag out but won't replace the coil springs on the truck. Therefore, if you ever have a...

• Will A Weight Distribution System Require Suspension Enhancements on a 2017 Ram 1500
  The use of a properly rated and installed weight distribution system will not require the use of additional suspension enhancements such as the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancements. However, as your 2017 Ram 1500 has coil springs on the rear of the vehicle which tend to sag/squat more than the comparable leaf spring rear suspension setup, I recommend replacing these coil springs with a set of air springs such as the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 which will increase...

• Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2021 RAM 1500 Sport
  Though the SuperCoils # SSC-50 will fit a 2021 Ram 1500 and 1500 Classic, they are not adjustable. With that, the ride will be affected when not towing. If you are towing most of the time, however, these will still be a good option. That being said, I prefer the adjustability of the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595. These can filled from 5 psi at the low end, up to 100 psi at the high end. This translates to being as close to the stock ride as possible when not towing,...

  When there is a low air pressure in the Firestone Coil to Air Spring Kit part # F2595 the suspension will sit lower by a couple inches. To get an idea check out the last 45 seconds of the install video I attached and you can see our installer putting air in the system and you can see the rear suspension rise up slightly.

• Can The Firestone Ride-Rite Be Used To Lower My 2017 Ram 1500?
  We have had this come up in the past and Firestone has confirmed that yes, the: -Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 can lower your truck when compressed to the minimum 5 PSI, however they do not specify how much lower the truck will be. Additionally, none of Firestones air bags have internal bump stops. The reason being is because Firestone's air bags being more robust, eliminating the need for them. Finally, to inflate/deflate the springs you're going to need a compressor...

• Does Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 Include a Compressor
  The Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 does not come with a compressor and one is not technically required as you can manually inflate the bags with an external compressor, but realistically you will want a compressor kit. For a heavy duty compressor kit that will make inflating the bags easier the part # F9285 would work well.

• Will Firestone Air Bags Work with Timbrens on a 2014 Ram 1500
  If you're referring to the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4185 then yes, you can use these with the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TDR1500DQ. If you're referring to the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 then the gap would be too tight between the spring and bag therefore I do not recommend this.

• Will The Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit Fit On a Lifted 2016 Ram 1500 4x4?
  The Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 will only fit at stock height on your 2016 Ram 1500 4x4. They do not offer lift spacers which are compatible with these air springs. If you do find a 6" lift kit which maintains the factory coil springs you can use the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4185. As many lifts will send new coil springs I may be able to help you find a set of Air Helper Springs which will fit into the new coils but I will need to verify the diameter...

• Air Helper Spring Suspension For 2020 Ram 1500
  Because the 2020 Ram 1500 uses a coil spring suspension, there isn't a Ride-Rite system available for the 1500 series. For an air adjustable suspension, you'd want to use the Firestone # F2595 coil to air spring conversion kit you'd looked at. The kit adds 3000 lbs of support to level the front and rear ride height of your truck. The # F2550 you'd referred is a fit for a leaf spring suspended Ford F-Series truck, and therefore wouldn't work on your Ram 1500. I've linked you to the...

• 2018 Ram 1500 Firestone Ride Rite Air Bag Kit Recommendation
  As long as you don't have the factory Air Suspension or the Rebel model you'll want the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit # F2595 for your 2018 Ram 1500. This is an air spring kit that can be adjusted to fit your towing/hauling needs depending on how you're using your truck from day to day. The 3,000 lb weight rating of this kit has to do with how much payload weight the air springs will help to support as these aren't designed to take the place of your OEM suspension. They won't...
