I'm gonna try putting the airbags we use on the semi's at work on my pickup haha, pretty simple, just a bar across the end of both springs with the bag between it and the frame, those things can really take on some weight
Why did these air bag systems change to be mounted on the jounce stop instead of over the leaf springs? This setup looks a lot easier to install than the new ones do.
I was thinking about this. A few questions. 1. Can you leave these bags inflated all the time? 2. Does this work with a 3 inch level kit, if it does when the bags are inflated will it raise the bed as well? Thank you
I cannot get mine to fill through the Schrader valve any thoughts? They had 30 psi in them and my son deflated them now I can't seem to re inflate them.
Occasionally Schrader valves can be a little bit stubborn, especially if they are in a difficult to access area. My best advice would be to try and get the air hose as square as possible on the valve and press firmly to let the bag inflate.
Awesome! I did get this installed on my tundra. Had to do just a bit extra, but easily done and installed. Had one company tell me that they would have to manufacture blocks, but they were not needed. Nice setup and improved towing my camper. I do have some issue with possible spring rate with the lift, it tends to undulate.
Using the exact kit in this video (Firestone 2525), it should not matter if truck is lifted. This is because the bottom support of the bags sit on the leaf springs, which sit on top of the lift block. There are other kits that sit on the axle and in that case a spacer would be required specific to the lift. These spacers are not that cheap either. I have a 6" lift and considering this particular Firestone kit for this reason.
