Ppr Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Finally found somewhere to get Firestone 9000's in the UK without having to rob a bank first, fitted them yesterday and what a transformation in the ride, it still shakes it still rattles but it rolls beautifully. See what I did there :-))) any one in the UK needs these or any other bags just contact and I'll give you the contact, £160 for a pair with all fittings and new air hose when cheapest I've seen one bag is £125.

I paid around $25 less from Air Ride with the $50 rebate but that was 6 months ago. Prices have gone up since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Something like these? http://store.gaugemagazine.com/1500lbtaperedsleeveairbag150psisingle14port.aspx Is it too late to get the PN of the ones you bought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ppr Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Hey Derek they're exactly the ones I got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbrightsteve Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Derek, I need a new set of air bags and these ones seem real cheap! Will they work for my Sunrader? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I wish I could say 'yes', but I can't. They might or might not. Firestone makes many different air springs that look the same in a picture. Look at these, even cheaper ($67.50 each). But they will be differences, maybe length, maybe diameter. http://store.gaugemagazine.com/1500lbtaperedsleeveairbag150psisingle14port-1.aspx To know if they'll work will require knowing what's installed there now.

Ppr Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 The bags I got had one bolt on the bottom and two on the top plus the air connection and the originals only had one top and bottom, it was quite easy to adapt. So far they have brought me half way down France in relative comfort and no roll on hairpin bends though they are inflated to 60 psi which seems about right.
