Installing Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs # F2525 in 2012 Ford F150 XLT
Question:
can I purchase pn f3025-1 so I can inflate both air bags at the same time?or should I just have one inflation point for each bag?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Firestone Ride-Rite Rear Axle Air Helper Springs # F2525 can be installed using the Union Tee for 1/4" Tubing # F3025-1 if you intend to always have both air bags inflated evenly. This may be desirable if you will be towing only, and not hauling uneven cargo loads. If you do have occasion to haul cargo loads that are not even from side to side, then you may prefer to still be able to inflate the bags individually to allow for compensation for that uneven load.
The ultimate convenience accessory for this system is the Firestone Dual Electric Air Command dual function compressor, part # F2178. This kit includes a dual-gauge control panel that installs in your F-150 cab and a compressor that allows independent automated inflation of the two air bags - everything you need to control the air springs. This allows you to adjust the bags individually from the comfort of your drivers seat. I have linked the installation instructions for your review.
For reference I have linked you to two articles concerning Firestone suspension kits.
