Air Lift 1000 or Firestone air bags?
I contacted the merchant that sold me the Firestone Coil-Rites. The service rep asked that I give him a couple days to get Firestone to respond to my complaint. They did not respond.
Here is the latest email from the merchant:
Good morning, I know they are busy but they need to be able to make a phone call to one of there customers. I tell you what, if they don't contact you by the end of the shipping day today I will just send you out a replacement kit from our warehouse and deal with them on the warranty end of things. Its 8:41 right now local time, if you do not here from them by 3:00 my time which is Mountain Standard Time than email me back and I will ship them from here. Sound good?
THE MERCHANT IS: SUSPENSION CONNECTION (dot) com and I thought I would give them a plug for their cooperation.
THEY ALSO SELL THE AIRLIFT BRAND. (hint-hint)

Air Lift 1000's ordered! I have been waiting for a long time to place this order. I was looking at the Firestone bags but there seem to be complaints about them and I have never heard anything bad about the Airlift bags.
I know it's difficult to get accurate and precise specs but it may be possible to find a set for a different vehicle which requires shorter air bags that would fit.
i have the firestones, easy to install and only issue i had was that i cut the hose a tad off going into the bag so it leaked but that was fixed after i thought the bag was busted and firestone sent me another bag free of charge(i now have a spare)
i like that the hoses are not connected and i fill each bag separately
this is with our competition bbq trailer which is 5000 or so pounds and my truck is leveled and bags at 30psi

That is where I ordered my Airlift bags from. I also ordered a .75" spacer from top gun today to slide in there when I have the springs out.
Factory is hopefully sending 4th set tomorrw, but I am really getting tired of changing them but have it down to a science now, i pull the coils to do it, simpler and less likely to damage the bag. Kit 60818 on all 3 but the first 2 had the short bags at 8.5" with the 3" black filler blocks, last set was longer bags at 11.5" with 1/2" nlon filler block that fir nicely inside the saddle boot.
Hope this helps, I am not giving up on Airlift but hope they help me get it fixed, or find a set of firmer coils and voila no more air issues
