Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at these four inch Lift Spacers for the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs on vehicles with a four inch lift. Now, these parts here will let you install your Ride-Rite air springs on a lifted vehicle by using these lift spacers. These spacers are designed to attach between the bottom of the lower bracket and the bottom of the spring on your vehicles with a four inch lift. Now, we do also sell other ones that are offer, they'll go anywhere, as they offer kits for a two inch lift, all the way up to a six inch lift.
This part here is for a four inch lift. Basically, the way you decide if these will work for you, you wanna measure the distance between the upper and lower brackets on your vehicle, and there must be between nine and a half and 10 and a half inches for these to work. Basically, the spacer must be the same size as the lift kit rise. So, this lift spacer needs to match the amount of lift that's added to the rear of your vehicle. This does include the two lift spacers and all the hardware necessary for installation.
The lift spacer fits the axle mounted air springs, and these spacers can be used with most Ride-Rite air spring kits. But that should do it for the review on the four inch Lift Spacers for the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs on vehicles with a four inch lift.

Install Ride-Rite air springs on a lifted vehicle with these lift spacers. Spacers attach between the bottom of the lower bracket and the bottom of the spring on vehicles with a 4" lift. Kit fits air springs that mount on the axle.My vehicle is a 2003 Ford E350 4X4 Sportsmobile. The product quality is excellent but the 2061 kit required a lot of workarounds, cutting and drilling. When it looked like the 2061 would not fit, I had to call Firestone. The tech said that I needed a 4" spacer from Firestone. It took two of us 3 days to install the first air bag. Hopefully, the second will take less time as we are working outside.
Better then Pictured! I initially installed my Firestone Bags without these spacers but quickly learned that I was going to need them due to my F250 having a 6" lift. I bought the 4" spacers due to the measurements from my bottom bracket to my top bracket between the bag and it is perfect now. The items in the product description kinda look weak but trust me, these things are big and meaty and extremely well built.
Heads up for everyone ordering...
You will always see descriptions for these as either axle mount or leaf mount. Well... my Firestone kit is actually installed to the side of the leafs and the bracket slides over the bottom jounce stop. I went ahead and got the axle mount spacers but knew I was taking a risk. I made it work though and both spacers went in in about 30 minutes.
When I installed the spacers I just made sure to use some locktite on my bottom bolt. The entire setup feels VERY sturdy so I'm not worried about it at all. As always, Etrailer support was fantastic.
They are built of great quality and seem very strong however, I was unable to utilize them for my airbag install. Even though I installed an 6inch suspension lift on my 2006 Dodge 3500 2wd, the lift is misleading. I installed the airbag plates and measured to get an accurate measurement. According to the measurements, I required the 2in spacer for the bags and they were of the same quality as these. Great product!
Very Pleased
