Are the Firestone Ride Rite Red Label Air Bags for 5000-lbs and 7500-lbs the Same Size
Question:
I looking to put air bags on my 2020 ford F-350 diesel 4x4 SRW. Are the red label firestone air bags 7500lb larger or bigger diameter in size than the 5000lb standard air bags. Just trying to find out if they are larger or just tougher material on the red label bags to withstand the higher pressure. Larger bags would take less pressure. Thanks in advance.

The only difference between the Firestone Ride Rite Red Label 5000-lbs Air Bags # F35FV and the 7500-lbs Air Bags # F95FV is the material that they are constructed with; both air bags will be the same size, but the 7500-lbs air bags are constructed with a heavier duty rubber. This was confirmed with my tech contact over at Firestone.
If you want to add an on-board air compressor system to this setup, the Firestone Air Command II # F2219 is a great choice that comes with analog gauges to allow you to inflate the bags on the fly and from the comfort of your truck cab. This is a dual path system that allows you to inflate the air bags independently for maximum customization of your ride quality.
I've linked some review videos of these parts for you to check out, as well.
