Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs Installation - 2023 Toyota Tacoma- Video
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at installing the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 rear helper springs on a 2023 Toyota Tacoma. Now this is what your airbags are gonna look like when they're installed on your Tacoma. And before, there's a very small jounce bumper that sits pretty low, and really for this to bottom out, it's gonna take a lot of squishing to do that, and that's what the bump stops or jounce bumpers are there for, so it doesn't bottom out the suspension. But the problem is leading up to that means that the shocks are gonna really compress. And a lot of times if you're either towing a trailer or have a heavy load in the back of the truck, that means the suspension's gonna be squatted, and that transmits quite a bit of issues, not only on the suspension being overloaded and not having that full stroke, but also it is gonna mess with the front of the vehicle too. So that's gonna come down to steering feel. more
