Indianapolis--As the market for Crossover Utility Vehicles (CUVs) continues to grow, Firestone Industrial Products Company, LLC is meeting customer demand with its Coil-Rite air helper springs kits for CUVs, including the new 2009 Ford Flex, 2007-2009 Ford Edge, 2007-2009 Lincoln MKX and 2002-2007 Saturn Vue. 

 
"Many drivers are turning to smaller crossover vehicles that are more fuel efficient than trucks and SUVs," said Todd Green, regional sales manager, Firestone Industrial Products, Ride-Rite division.  "By adding an air helper springs kit, drivers can maximize the functionality and the safe load carrying capacity of their CUV when towing gear for weekend camping trips or family vacations."


Firestone Coil-Rite air helper springs are designed to reduce wear and tear caused when vehicles tow heavy loads.  Additional benefits include a more level vehicle, increased stability, improved steering and balance, and reduced tire wear. 

 
"Our Coil-Rite kits also assist drivers in preventing vehicle 'bottoming out' and poor ride quality that's commonly associated with heavily loaded CUVs," Green said.


The no-drill Coil-Rite kits include Ford Flex, Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX and Saturn Vue.
