Default Firestone Ride rite air bags with lift
Has anyone installed the Firestone airbags with a 6 inch lift? I have a 2015 with a 6 inch BDS and would like to install these to help with towing.

Firestone is the best choice as they sit between the leafs springs and the frame. You're good to go.

So no spacers needed if they install on top the spring.

None unless you're rear lift is achieved with different springs. If it's a block, you should be good to go.

I remember a previous neighbor with the same lift and got Firestone. No spacers needed.
