INDIANAPOLIS – Firestone Industrial Products Company, LLC has announced its Ride-Rite air helper springs are now available for 2005-2008 Isuzu N-Series cab forward trucks, both Regular Cab and Crew Cab. The Isuzu cab forward Ride-Rite kit maximizes the truck’s load support to improve its ride quality and stability by using air pressure to adjust Firestone’s air helper springs.
Isuzu N-Series cab-forward trucks often carry heavy loads that weigh down the truck. Firestone’s Ride-Rite kit provides extra support to safely and comfortably haul heavy loads. In addition to smoothing the ride, Firestone’s Ride-Rite systems help maintain braking effectiveness, reduce tire wear, level off-center loads — individual inflation valves allow for separate side-to-side adjustment — and increase vehicle stability.
A pair of Ride-Rite air springs provides up to 5,000 pounds of load leveling capacity. Firestone’s Isuzu Ride-Rite kit (part #2440) includes everything needed for an easy installation that typically takes between one and two hours and comes with a two-year limited warranty. The system’s reinforced double convoluted air springs install between the frame and the axle.
The Air-Rite air accessory system, which enables drivers to make air pressure adjustments with a push of a button installed on the dashboard, is also available to complement the Isuzu Ride-Rite kit.
Technicians are available toll-free (800.888.0650) to answer any product application, installation, or warranty questions Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. EST.
