When I had my airbag setup on my 2006 gasser, I bought an SRT10 A pillar from the dealership and mounted it in there. Not sure if you can get an srt10 pillar for your year of truck, but I know you can get aftermarket ones from here,..



I bought my gauges from them.

You may want to check out this wireless system from Firestone I carry. Then you don't need to worry about where to mount it.

The wireless design makes installation simple. Requires no lines or wires to be run to the cab of your vehicle. Includes a wireless hand held unit for convenient operation in or outside the vehicle. Allows equal inflation of both air springs.

Ya its a good system as well I also carry them, there just a little more money. But there is a $50 rebate on right now.

IMO...A little more money is a small price to pay for reliability:D Not 1 issue with my system this winter, nearly every firestone system I have ever sold/installed has been switched over the the Air Lift system...and people are HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

Haven't had any issues with the Firestone system, but would have to also agree on the Air Lift System, We recently started dealing with the Air Lift System and so far no issues and everyone has been very happy.

I agree with kevin i had the firestone kit in my dmax and cursed it waiting on the wireless airlift for my Pstroke lots of guys running them down here in SW alberta and loving them. Bit more $ but well worth it.

Our client base may be very different than yours. We deal with a lot of patch people that use their trucks throughout the year beating down lease roads while hauling heavy. these people depend on their bags and air system on a daily basis - no matter what the season or temperature. We've had SERIOUS issues in the past with the firestone solenoids and manifolds packing it in prematurely. Considering that we install the products and service the customers, I personally won't endorse a firestone compressor system of any type. Just my .02...so take it for what it's worth:D I could care less who gets the sale at the end of the day...as long as people are educated properly...

With all due respect, i've been selling Firestone for over 15 years and have had no issue with their product. It sells itself... IMO

Cheers
