Installing Firestone Ride Rite Kit on 2011 Toyota Tacoma with 3 inch Lift

Question

Question:

I have a 3” lift kit installed in the rear of my 2011 Tacoma. I am wanting to add the Firestone ride rite air bag system for help when carrying my camping load and RTT. Will the 1 1/4” spacer combined with the daystar cradle be enough to allow me to use the benefits of the ride rite kit or will I need a larger spacer under the cradle ? Also if it helps. I measured from the bottom of my frame where the kit mounts to the top of my leaf springs. I am sitting at 7 1/4” on driver and 6 3/4” on passenger.

Your best option is going to be to install the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2410 which fits your 2011 Toyota Tacoma and then also use the spacer kit part # F2536 that you referenced since the distance between the brackets you measured is between 6-1/2 inch and 7-1/2 inch.
