I did not go with the air setup as I was scared of leaks and issues especially with the weather here. I went with the Work-Rite 8620 from Firestone. They are really just overloads that replace the factory bump stops. Have not loaded them down yet so I guess I don't have much to say about them yet maybe soon I will get a chance.

 

i have that same system as mentioned in the first post... i am a little confused my quad is in the back of the truck at the moment 20 psi in the bags and all its doing is sitting on the bump stops....is that normal????????????

 

from what i recall seeing, those firestone work-rite almost site on the "bump stop" when unloaded, so as soon as you put any weight they are acting as a secondary spring?

was it sitting on the bumpstops before you put the quad in ?

 

nope there was about 3/4 space...when i first got them installed they were riding on bump stops whole time. felt like i was in a low rider all over again..(flash back) but i got the spacers removed.. but i am wondering why do i need bags if all its going to to is ride the bump stops???????sooooo confused

 

Does anyone want this kit? I have one new-in-box that I'm not going to end up using. PM me.

This is the kit I"m using. I think these are the best on the market, for me anyways.

I'm so confused at what your saying. Empty your truck doesn't ride on the bump stops (3/4 space) and then you said they were riding on the bump stops when you installed them? What spacers did you remove?

Before you load your quad or put weight in the bed make sure your bags are inflated before, and put like 30-35 psi and they should work better.

 

k here goes.... so i buy the kit get it installed. i drive it home it rides like a low rider...go back to shop he removes black spacers 2 or 3 per side..i have roughly about 1/2-3/4 space before they hit. 25 pounds in bags... load my quad sits on the bump stops. my question is that i dont feel the bags are doing anything. here is a picture unloaded with 25psi

 

here is a crapy pic of my set up

 

Well the bump stops are gonna be much closer to the axle, I'd say it's normal for them to be sitting on the bump stops when loaded, but your bags should always have pressure on them even when empty.. Did the guy remove the spacers where the bags were, I don't think he should have.
