Nice product. Installation instructions need to provide guidance/technique on how to position back plates when placing nut back plates inside the frame. I needed to bend the tabs 90 degrees for alignment.

Hey, Quick Delivery, and a Perfect Fit.
On my 2004 Ford 250 Power Stroke Diesel, with HD suspension. A perfect fit. No drilling needed... just ability to read, maybe read a couple of times.
Instruction were good. Bolt holes in Frame were Exact.
I put my 3,000 Lb slide in camper on board, pumped the air up to 75 lbs per instruction, and wah...lah... the load was level and stable.
Improvment. Wish the pressure guage, and pump were not so expensive. But there is a good 120 volt system on the market that pumps my helper air system up in seconds. very pleased

I really like the compressor system after installed. The installation was a bit difficult especially under the dash area. The compressor itself was easliy intalled under the hood on the driver side fender well. The wiring harness was easly roued from the battery on the right side through the housing protecting the windshield washer tubing over to the compressor on the left side. The wiring is already fuse protected with easy to mount relay. The air tubing was routed down the fender wheel through a 9/16" hole in firewall to control panel.

The Firestone Air Helper System fit my 2008 F-150 as advertised. After laying out and preassembling the air bag and adapter plates, the installation time was about four hours. I routed the inflators out the rear mounting them in the plastic next to the license plate. If you are towing trailers I would highly recommend the helper spring system. I tow a 27.5 foot fifth wheel RV. This system allows level, safe and smooth towing.
