Welcome to the TOW RIG THREAD

[Disciple Off Road]

I have a question for you towing guys. Have a Toyota Tundra who needs some air bags for pulling his toy hauler and will admit, I have no knowledge on what kits/brands are good or bad. Would love to hear some of your recommendations on this. Thanks you!

Are we talking about old leaf springs or multi link springs?

Back in the day, Firestone bags were king. I would hope they're still around. They go above rear leaf springs. You can manually add air or the have a compressor kit with controls inside the vehicle.

I looked and don’t see they apply to Toyota but for anyone else that may be interested. Full Travel Bags have been great on my F350. Best part is they can be disengaged by removing the spacer, retaining ride quality which is usually sacrificed by installing airbags. Just in case this helps anyone else out I figured I’d post here.

Had these air lift on my GMC works great and no wires or hoses in the cab. You inflate or deflate with a fob you can adjust pressure while traveling.

we install the Firestone ride rite kit and then do the daystar lower air bags cradles for tundras. Depending on the year this is the kit we use

Daystar Air Bag Cradle Polyurethane Black (KU09140BK)

We then drill out the license plate holes and run the air lines back thru the top holes for a clean install. Make sure the customer keeps at least 5lbs of air in the bags at all time.

What suspension does he have on it?

I've got an Air Lift (https://www.airliftcompany.com/) system on my Duramax that's 10+ years old, compressor mounted in the cab under rear seat, works great. Control pressure from this gauge.
