Comparing Suspension Enhancement Colors for 2013 Toyota Sequoia
Question:
Hello, I’d like install air bags on my 2013 Toyota sequioa. Any idea why they’re made with such bring obnoxious colors? Red and Blue? Wondering why not black? I don’t want them to stick out and look stupid. Thank you

The Air Lift and Firestone Coil-Style air springs that fit your 2013 Toyota Sequoia are different colors so that they do stand out actually. Coil-style springs install inside your coil suspension so they are a bit more hidden while standard air bags install above the axle so they are seen a bit easier.
If you want suspension enhancement that is a black color then I recommend the Timbren kit # TTORSEQ1. This simply replaces the factory bump stops on your vehicle so your suspension gets the help it needs faster. The nice thing about this over an air solution is that there is zero maintenance, but it's not uncommon for people to complain about the Timbrens making an unloaded ride a little more harsh.
Ultimately nobody is going to see the air springs inside your coils unless they are looking for them so if you're really wanting an air bag kit I recommend using the Firestone Coil-Rite Kit # F4164 because they are more durable and as far as color goes, blue will be a little more subtle.
I also recommend picking up the Viair Portable RV Air Compressor Kit # VA99WR so you can adjust the air pressure while you're out and about. This comes with battery clamps for power and you have 20' of hose which should be more than enough to get to the back of your Sequoia.
