I use Air Lift. I haven't used the others so I could not compare. I have had zero problems with mine and the install was not bad at all. For the bags and the on board compressor I think I am in them around $400.00

I have had Ride Rites on 2 trucks now and never had any problem. Love them and love the onboard air with tank!! Makes filling up the bike and quad tires a breeze!!

I had the Firestone bags on my last truck. The compressor had to be replaced after 10 years, but the bags never had a problem or leaked at all.

Just installed firestones on my 97. Easy install, good price. I have compressor and tank that i am installing. Don't go with out the compressor or at least a tank. Makes filling on the fly easy/with big tank, you can fill tires.

Pacbrake bags on my 07.5 dually. They were pretty easy to install. I'm just waiting for the compressor and control system to come in now.

I have used ride rite on two different trucks both worked great! I have the bags and compressor on my truck now, summit racing has the best price that I could find. Bags are easy to install the compressor was a little more difficult just to find a good spot to mount it. good luck!

I've had both Airlift and Firestone... they're actually identical in design. Both have worked great. The bags themselves run around $100-130, but by the time you add the compressor and in-cab control, you're up around $400. But that makes it REALLY convenient. I also plumb my compressor so I have a couple of external hookups for airing up tires and stuff.
