air springs
Looking to buy air springs to level truck while towing, Firestone and Airlift are about the same price, any opinion on which is better?

Welcome to FTE, I have Airlifts, and they have worked great, I think firestones are just as good.

Airlift kits have unlimited mileage with their 2-year warranty, plus a 60-day return guarantee.

Welcome to FTE!

I installed the firestone 2400 "no drill" since I run an Reese 18K Signature series 5th wheel hitch. Levels out nice except I did have to modify the heat shield to fit due to my 4" Magnaflow exhaust.
