To the OP thats amazing that AirLift is replacing the bags. Would tend to help in the decision process:)
crcr-not that it matters but many have brand logo on exterior of bags.
Between the 3 brands, they are virtually identical as far as components fit & function for given truck. The inboard/outboard mounting is more vehicle & component related, one may offer different options over the other but all the company's offer both styles/type per application?
Only fault I see is the Firestone kit (no pic) uses carriage bolts instead of the u-bolts on the spring mounts-I cant tighten a gate hinge with carriage bolts without popping off the head.
Still curious, visually A/L & P/B for my truck?

Instructions all but identical for all 3 mfgs. Neither mfg states materials or reason to consider one over the other? Inside knowledge of hardware COO, bracket steel grade, bag construction/material? As mine are 14 years old and bags were replaced due to weather checking with a newer used set I'm (hopefully) not in the market-but at this point if needed Id be looking at the best price I could find-regardless of brand.
