Question:

I have a 2018 Toyota Tundra that sometimes sags in the rear when I put a lot of weight in the bed. What's the best and easiest to use suspension enhancement I can install to get rid of the sag?

Expert Reply:

For your 2018 Toyota Tundra the suspension enhancement I recommend is the Timbren kit part # TABSOSR because this kit installs easily, gives you the suspension support you need to greatly reduce the sag, and because it doesn't require monitoring air pressure or running air lines like the air bag kits do so it's very low maintenance. I attached a link to an install video for this kit for you to check out as well.
