Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs Installation - 2011 Ford F-150- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2011 Ford F150, we're going to be installing Firestone's Ride Rite air helper springs, part number F2542. This is what our springs are going to look like when they're installed. There's currently a moderate inflation on it to allow it to carry a decent load. Each spring can be adjusted individually. This way you can maintain a steady stable load from side to side no matter what you're hauling.It'll also help increase stability while under a heavy load. You can adjust it as necessary per your load, so you can help maintain that factory ride height and make it even on both sides. more

Best 2011 Ford F-150 Suspension Enhancement Options- Video
Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the best suspension enhancements for your 2011 Ford F-150, F-250 and F-350. Here we're going to have a leaf spring style helper spring followed by our airbag helper springs and then over here we're going to have a jounce style helper spring and this is going to be our lower overload helper spring, and then finally on the end this is going to be our upper overload helper springs.Now, each one of our types of suspension enhancements are going to do the same thing. When we're carrying a heavy load or hauling a heavy trailer, they are going to prevent the back end of our truck from sagging, causing more strain on our suspension as well as lifting of the front end, creating less contact for our tires and not a safe driving condition. They're all going to help prevent all of those things from happening. So let's take a closer look at some of the benefits from each one.Now, our helper leaf springs here are not only going to give us that load leveling support, but they're also going to give us a little bit of anti-sway because of the way they're going to mount. Our leaf spring style helper springs are going to mount to our factory lease springs. more
