Awesome video! I got the exact same set up with the cradles. I actually have the exact same truck, same model and even color! The air bags have served me well for two years now, no issues. I use them all the time, wethers it’s towing a trailer, yard work, construction, off roading, family road trip, commute to work, its pretty awesome to have the option to have the truck supported properly. Keep the videos coming! Been watching from the early days!

The base of the bump stop is metal and has a hole that goes over the top of the pin that goes through the leaf pack they specifically have you cut the bump stop because once it's tightend down it keeps your ubolts from potentially moving.

I like that these videos involve an actual working truck, not a pavement princess. My trucks previous owner lived in Vermont, so I'm about due to go thru and reseat grounding connections, since surface rust is starting to corrode some exposed connections. If you have a video on the joys of removing rusty grounding bolts without snapping them off, that would be awesome, as well!
@KFloTacoma
@KFloTacoma 2 года назад
Thanks for the kind words bro. With regard to grounding points, that one require's a bit more fine touch and even that doesn't guarantee easy removal especially with rust welded bolts in the north east. My recommendation: 1) soak them in liquid wrench/PB blaster. 2) Brush the head and any of the exposed threads with a wire brush. 3) Undo the bolt but only applying gradual torque to make sure not to overtorque the bolt and shear it 4) Throw some heat with a small butane blow torch 5) repeat from step 1. If all else fails, may be just easier to just shear it completely and re drill and tap a new hole. If you have access to the backside, you can just put a nut and bolt with a grounding washer on both sides - then protect that with RP 342. Cheers bud!

Thanks for the video. I am wondering why you opted to place the Schrader valves in the hard to reach wheel wells.

Hey Kflow, I love your DIY videos first and foremost. Question: I hear a knocking sound underneath my 2011 Tacoma every time I go over bumpy asphalt. I’m beginning to believe it’s coming from bad body mount bushings. Do you have a video showing how to replace the old body mount bushings with new ones? I ordered new polyurethane bushings from Energy Suspension on Amazon

Hey bro, unfortunately, these are separate purchases. They don't currently have an all in on kit.

The instructions want you to cut off the bumps bumpstop for 2 reasons. 1. Below the bumpstop is a plate to hold the pin in place that keeps the leaf springs together. 2. If you remove the ubolts to take off the bumpstop like you did. You must always use new ubolts to attach the springs to axle. Since the old ubolts will never tighten like they did the first time.

I have the Dobinson's Leaf Spring. Initially, I had the extra heavy duties but removed two of the leaves and made it the light duty and paired it with these airbags

Question: I have a 3inch lift on the rear. I bought a spacer to add. Is this recommended or not needed? The fair bags arrive in a few days.
@KFloTacoma

Sorry, I'm not understanding the question. Are you asking if the spacer is needed or are you asking if the air bags are needed?

I know this is an old video but I just found out that Firestone does not recommend the cradles. They say their warranty will be voided when the airbags are used in conjunction with the cradles
@thejamiefoster
@thejamiefoster Год назад
Interesting. How would they know you're using cradles if you make a warranty claim?
@revilozone
@revilozone Год назад
@@thejamiefoster Right. and another thing, I would think that it should be the other way around: warranty void if used without cradles. oh well

It sounds like Firestone just doesn't want to be held responsible for improper installation (should that happen)

No - the lower bracket for the cradle will not be able to sit flush on top of the leaf spring. That's a good project idea though for my plasma cutter, stay tuned. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel, Darren
