We just had the Ride Rite bags installed - a bit pricey I thought, but well worth it. What a difference in ride and handling! Absolutely would do it again.


It's been awhile since I installed mine but pay close attention to the part where it says something about ". . . if the bracket does not rest on the axle, install the extra spacer that came in the kit . . ." Getting those extra spacers in after the install is almost complete took almost as long as the whole airbag installation. Check your spacing before you tighten everything down.

Another vote for Firestone. Bought the truck used and already had them installed with the compressor and gauge for front seat adjustment. I never knew a pickup could ride that smooth ( with and without the fiver).

Ive had both firestone and airlift products, I prefer the firestones. Install was easy, the hardest part was getting the truck jacked up and the tires off.
