Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Spring Kit Rear 88-98 Chevy/GMC C1500/2500/3500 2WD/4WD (W217602025)

The Firestone Ride-Rite air helper springs are built with durable, two-ply convoluted air springs that can support up to 5,000 pounds. These springs are designed to work between your vehicle's frame and suspension, helping to level the load and improve your ride quality. They are a popular choice for a wide range of trucks, motorhomes, RVs, and vans, including models like the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500, 1988-2000 Chevrolet C2500, and 1975-1991 Ford E-150 Econoline.

This kit includes all the necessary brackets, air helper springs, hardware, air line, and inflation valves for a complete installation. The individual inflation valves allow you to adjust air pressure separately for each side, which is crucial for keeping your vehicle level when carrying off-center loads. This adjustability also helps reduce suspension fatigue and bottoming out, enhancing stability and brake effectiveness, especially when your vehicle is carrying heavy loads. While many Ride-Rite kits are no-drill, this specific application requires some drilling to ensure a solid mount.

Installation is typically straightforward and can often be completed in 1 to 2 hours, though it's always a good idea to refer to the manufacturer's instructions for specific details. Firestone backs these air helper springs with a two-year limited warranty, giving you confidence in their durability and performance.
