Helpful Expert Reply:
It sounds like you are looking for a set of airbags to use on your 2014 Toyota Tundra for pulling a 5th wheel trailer. If that is the case then I recommend using the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2445 because they install under the frame which means you won't run into any issues with side mount 5th wheel hitch brackets. These airbags have a 5,000 lb weight capacity which will be plenty because they only really need to be rated for your payload capacity which will be well under 5,000 lbs.
The Air Command Compressor System part # F2610 that you referenced would be an okay choice for the above. It's not really an issue with the weight as it is with the quality of the air compressor. This kit only comes with a light duty compressor which will be fine if you don't plan to adjust the air pressure inside your airbags every day. If you do then this compressor won't last long and you will want to go with the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System part # AL25980 which has a better air compressor.
