Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs (MPN: 6957)

Enhance vehicle stability and load support with durable air springs.

Firestone's Ride-Rite air helper springs are engineered for heavy-duty performance, providing essential load support for a variety of vehicles including light trucks, motor homes, RVs, SUVs, and vans. These double convoluted air springs are designed to be installed between the vehicle's frame and suspension, utilizing air pressure to enhance load carrying capacity and improve ride quality. With a load leveling capacity ranging from 3,200 to 5,000 pounds, these springs are tailored to meet specific application needs, ensuring a hassle-free fitment to OEM suspensions.

The Ride-Rite system not only helps maintain vehicle level but also improves steering control and braking effectiveness, which can lead to reduced tire wear and better headlight alignment. Individual inflation valves allow for side-to-side adjustments, accommodating off-center loads and enhancing overall vehicle stability. Additionally, these air springs mitigate suspension fatigue by preventing leaf springs from sagging under constant loads, while the protective air cushion reduces the risk of bottoming out by softening the impact between the axle and frame.

Constructed from durable polyurethane, Firestone's Ride-Rite air helper springs are synonymous with quality and reliability. They are designed to absorb road shock, providing optimal ride conditions for both passengers and cargo. While these air springs do not increase the vehicle's load-carrying capacity, they significantly enhance the driving experience by ensuring a stable and comfortable ride.
