Firestone or Air Lift Air Bags for a 2016 Toyota Tundra
Question:
I am looking for an air suspension kit for my 2016 Toyota Tundra Crew Cab for pulling a bumper pull horse trailer. Would you recommend Airlift of Firestone?

Expert Reply:
I really like the Firestone airbags because they use a crimp rolled design which is much more durable than the band clamp used with the Air Lift Kit item # AL88299 you were looking at.
For your 2016 Toyota Tundra, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F2445. These air bags have a 4,800 lbs load leveling capacity that will keep your rear end from squatting when you are pulling your horse trailer.
I have attached a photo of the crimp roll for you, along with a review video.
I also recommend adding the Firestone Air Command item # F2610 to your truck. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.
