Question:
I have been researching the Firestone Ride Rite kit for my 2016 Ford F350 SRW Diesel Super Duty with factory installed 5th Wheel Package extra cross beam is what I understand has been added Two different kits come up depending on which site I am researching. They are the 2535 and the 2597. So what is the difference and which one do I need for my truck???? Thanks for your help

Expert Reply:
The F2535 system has actually been discontinued and replaced by the new # F2597 Ride-Rite springs.
The # F2597 kit will install and work with your 2016 Ford F-350. It's designed to work with the diesel engine models and with a fifth wheel or gooseneck hitch installed.
The Ride-Rite springs can be combined with an air compressor kit # F2097 to monitor and control the air pressure from inside the cab of your truck.
