INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Firestone Industrial Products Company, LLC introduces its Level-Rite™ air spring over damper suspension for the 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500, both 2WD and 4WD (part #1004). 

 

The new Level-Rite system helps level the front end of vehicles that carry additional weight on the front such as a winches, snow plows, slide-in campers and Texas Style bumpers.  Featuring a fully protected air spring paired with a high-performance Bilstein* monotube shock absorber, Firestone’s Level-Rite kits are designed to improve vehicle control and stability, reduce bottoming and suspension fatigue, and allow for control of front ground clearance.

 

“When weight is added to a vehicle’s front end by extra equipment and accessories, suspension components can begin to wear down prematurely,” said Todd Green, regional sales manager, Firestone Industrial Products, Ride-Rite™ division.  “Level-Rite is designed to reduce suspension fatigue by preventing factory torsion bars and coil springs from sagging under heavy loads.”

 

Firestone offers the Dodge Ram Level-Rite kit with everything needed for an easy, no-drill installation that takes less than an hour.  The kit includes air springs featuring billet aluminum pistons and restraining cylinders, high-performance shock absorbers, polyurethane bushings, air line tubing and fittings, and all necessary hardware.  Level-Rite comes with a two-year limited warranty and optional air accessories, such as the Air-Rite™ air accessory system that lets drivers make air pressure adjustments with a push of a button installed on the dashboard.

 

Trained 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 pm. EST.

 

The Level-Rite system is part of Firestone’s Complete Suspension Solutions, which also offer Ride-Rite™, Sport-Rite™ and Coil-Rite™ air helper springs.  These products have become synonymous with quality, durability and outstanding customer support.  For more information, visit www.ride-rite.com.
