Review on Firestone Ride Rite 2558 Brackets Inflation by Timothy Spinner

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Download the manual, plan to replace the iron.

2018 Nissan Frontier Midnight 4x4. After going to all the trouble of getting them to me down the street, they sent me the wrong 3/8 nuts. After lying in the mud at camp, undoing bolts to remove fenders and assembling and installing bags, I found that all of the flange nuts were the wrong thread pitch. I've already found time to run to the hardware store to get the shorter 3/8 bolts for the bottom of the assemblies (general view), now I have to wait until I get to Vegas to take one to the larger hardware store come complete screw set class 8. Meanwhile I have to drive without fenders with solar panel and camping equipment in trailer operation. Also when installing on an 18 or newer rim (probably 16 or 17 too) there is a tab on the driver's side (left) top bracket that sticks up. You will need to cut or sand them so the bracket is flush with the frame. The carriage bolts for the bottom bracket are 5 1/2 inches. This will interfere with the brake lines and will most likely fray them. I would buy new 3/8" grade 8 bolts that are about 3" maybe even 2.5.

Pros
  • Longevity Fairing
Cons
