which airbag do i want? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

If I bag my truck, what bag do I want to use out back? I have a longbed, don't do any hauling or anything, my truck is just for fun and looking good. I know you should use 2600s up front, but do I want 2500 or 2600s out back? Which has a better ride?

use 2600- thats what i have been using and the truck rides so good. You can ride with less pressure then the 2500.

true but that 224c (in AIM speak, 2600) also has more spring rate than a 255 (2500) which doesnt necessarily mean it has the better ride. i spoke with airlift and was told their 2b6 ext which is just an extended version of the firestone 255 (2500) would ride better in the back than their 2b7 otherwise known as a 224c (2600)

The 255c is actually a 2400 lb bag and the 224c is a 2500lb bag I don't know why but thats how I get them from firestone.
