Derek up North Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The part number on the old ones is now obsolete so I can't cross reference them. What part number do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edbonez20 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 What part number do you have? It is a Airsleeve Spring by Firestone On the rubber it shows 1086 which is below the brand name. They have only one mounting hole on top and only one on bottom. On the top aluminum plate where the air line connects it has NBD10183 but I believe that number is the part number for the plate itself and not the whole unit. Here's a picture of one. Can't read anything but that's what it looks like. Thanks for replying everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stamar Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 I couldnt find a firestone one but i found these http://www.amazon.co...81&s=automotive im definitely holding off because people dont like this brand as much as the other two. the heaviest duty ones which would be what id be looking for obviously, would be the bellows type available for the newer toyota motorhomes.

Thanks for the link and the thought of the bellows type. I do think I need something rated around 6000lbs as those were only good for 2000lbs. It's starting to look like I'm going to have to go with whole other kit instead of replacements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamar Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 rhere we go use these ones not the air ride brand. it is possible that ride right bags are compatible with your set up, seeing as they are the same brand, but I have no guarantee. the cost difference between a new kit, and two new bellows is 60$, well worth it anyway in my mind. http://www.truckspri...79&model=Pickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
