Need help with Firestone Ride Rite

[TheDome]

Guys does anyone have good pictures of the 2450 kit installed on 2008 F250 4x4 CC. I am in desperate need of some good pictures tonight to complete my install. I am having some issues with the jounce stop and the saddle bracket...Any help is very much appreciated.

Wish I could help you out. I don't have the in-bed hitch, therefore my PN was 2264 if I remember correctly. If all else fails, I'd be happy to take some pictures of my setup.

Need some pictures bad, I am having some bracket alignment issues, really would help tremendously if I could see someone elses pictures.

Page two shows the install. I came across a web site
a while back where a guy had major problems getting
his 2450 to fit without doing some grinding. Then, others
report a perfect fit.

I have that exact setup. Let me run out and try to snap a few pictures. What exactly are you looking for pictures of?

Ok, here are a few pics from the iPhone.

I ordered the 2452s a while back ( outside the frame ). But,
then went on two month back order cause parts weren't
available to Firestone. So, I canceled to order. I like the
way the 2450s look. But, I want the option of putting a
block in that doesn't have a jounce. It looks to me from the
pictures that the brackets don't touch the jounce and that
it would be ok to not have it. But, the instructions say to
not install if there is no jounce. I wonder why, if the jounce
isn't touching anything and offers no added strength or support.
Am I seeing it wrong?

Ford Mudder I cant thank you enough for taking the time to post that for me Bro. That is exactly how I ended up installing mine. Same setting on the brackets and everything. I had a little trouble at first and to be honest I was not sure that I did the install correct until your pictures confirmed for me. I am on the road as of this morning pulling my 5th wheel and it has made all the difference in the world. These things are great. Again thank you so much for posting. If there is anything I can ever do to help you just PM me or ask.
Thanks Todd

Cool. Yep with the 5th wheel attached, it sure does pull a ton better!
