Firestone Air Springs Compatible With 2001 Ford F-150 For Installing Underbed Puck System

Question

Question:

Ive been working with Jason S. on an under bed puck system for my 01 ford f250. I looked for a number on the airbags and the only number I saw was 25501.5. However when i looked at the diagrams on your website it looks like the f2701. Just wondering what my options are?

With the style of brackets of the system you referenced that have the curve on top versus a box, you will have a system compatible for use with the in bed hitch...most likely the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted - Rear Axle # F2550. This means that the Under-Bed Rail and Installation Kit for Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30073 will be compatible with your Firestone Air Springs.

The # F2701 is a spring kit only compatible with certain Ram trucks.
