Is there a Recommended Pressure for Firestone Air Bags with Unloaded 2013 Toyota Tundra TRD
Question:
what pressure is recommended for the bags when unloaded, and does this pressure result in any lift of the rear of the truck? I have a 2013 Tundra Double Cab, TRD and Tow packages, 4WD, original 18inch wheels. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The pressure you put in the air bags in Firestone kit # F2445 depends only on personal preference. With more air in the bags the ride will be stiffer and you might get a slight lift at the rear but the kit is not designed to provide lift. You would need to try different air pressures between 5 psi and 100 psi to find the best setting for you.
Adding an on board air compressor, # F2158, will make this process easier. You will be able to add or remove pressure from the cab of the truck.
