Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs Installation - 2012 Toyota Sienna- Video

Today on our 2012 Toyota Sienna, we'll be installing the Firestone Coil Rite Air Helper Springs, part number F4155. To begin, we'll first go ahead and measure our ride height with the manufacturer's suspension and no weight added to the vehicle. As you can see, to the top of the fender here at the rear, it's 29-3/4 inches. Now, we'll go ahead and add approximately 760 pounds of weight. We'll take a second measurement, and it brings it to 27-1/2 inches. Now, we'll go ahead and run our vehicle over our test course. As we go through the slalom portion of our test course, with the excessive weight in the back, we have decreased steering ability and excessive sway and body roll. As we go over the bumps portion of the course, you can see there's minimal suspension travel distance remaining and causes quite an impact when it encounters the bumps. Now, we'll go ahead and install the Firestone Coil Rite Air Helper Springs. more
