Parts Needed to Upgrade a Single Path Air Bag Compressor Kit to a Dual Path with Dual Gauges  

Question:

I have a 2003 Ford F250 Super Duty 6.0. In preparation of buying a slide-in camper I had our local tire/service station install Firestone air springs and compressor. Unfortunately, I thought the guy I talked to knew what I needed and somewhere we failed in our communication that I wanted dual gauge controls and Im looking to buy the parts I need to make this what I want by either doing it myself or taking the additional parts back to the service shop for re-installation. I want to make sure to get the right stuff because when I mentioned the dual gauge after I saw what was installed the owner of service shop said while hes installed hundredsinch of these kits, hed never seen a dual gauge allowing independent control of each bag. Unfortunately I live in a very small town so my service options are limited . I was looking for dual -side to side control and I guess didnt make that clear when I told him what I wanted and why I wanted it. What was installed was the following: Firestone Air Springs Ride-Rite - Im not even sure what model as they didnt give me that, only the manual. I know that the shop specifically called in my truck specs to order the kit. The springs are double-convoluted. Air Compressor Kit WR1-760-9285 which only inflates and deflates both. Problem is that the way it is installed, the air bags accordion as weight shifts from side to side. So, I need to know what I need to 1 replace the single gauge contol with dual so I can adjust each bag independently and 2 ideally run manual override lines into the gas tank cap well or some other convenient place to manually fill each bag separately if needed. Thanks for any help.

We have exactly what you need to upgrade your single path Firestone Heavy Duty Air Compressor # F9285 to a dual path so that you can control both sides of your airbags individually.

You would want the Dual Function Air Spring Control Panel # F2188. This comes with everything you or your local shop will need to upgrade your setup.
