Firestone Replacement Upper Bracket for Ride-Rite Air Helper Spring Kit 2071
Restore the full load-carrying capability and stability of your vehicle's rear suspension with the Firestone Replacement Upper Bracket. Designed as the direct OEM replacement for the Ride-Rite air helper spring kit 2071, this bracket secures the upper mounting of the air springs, ensuring consistent performance under heavy towing or hauling conditions. It prevents sagging, absorbs road shocks effectively, and keeps your truck level for better handling and tire wear delivering the dependable support your Firestone system demands without any guesswork on compatibility.
This bracket stands out for maintaining the kit's proven 5,000 lb load-leveling capacity when paired with air springs inflated between 5-100 PSI. Users report it handles daily demands from construction hauls to weekend trailers with ease, far outpacing generic aftermarket options that often loosen or fail prematurely. Choose this for a straightforward install that gets your suspension back to factory-spec reliability, saving time and avoiding costly mismatches.

Fabrication
Fabrication parts and materials provide the raw components needed to build, repair, and modify custom exhaust systems, turbocharger plumbing, intercooler piping, fuel system lines, oil routing, and engine bay heat management on performance and competition vehicles. Stainless steel tubing, titanium tubing, aluminum charge piping, mandrel bends, pie cuts, flanges, merge collectors, V-band clamps, O2 sensor bungs, AN fittings, PTFE hose kits, braided fuel and oil lines, heat shields, and welding supplies are the backbone of any serious custom fabrication project.
