Failed to install after a year and a half.

I installed this on my 2007 Toyota 4Runner about a year and a half ago. One of the pockets recently ripped at the seam and I was unable to get any assistance from either the seller or the manufacturer. When not loaded with a heavy load, the bags held 7psi, and when loading my car I never inflated them above 20psi. Considering the cost of the bags and the purpose of the product I expected them to last a lot longer. The product page lists a lifetime warranty but I have not been able to contactโ€ฆ

Manufacturer error! CHECK BEFORE INSTALLATION!

Press carefully BEFORE assembly! Seriously. Manufacturer error, a hole in the top of the bag - see video. How can you rely on those seatbacks to support the weight of towing when they can't even hold the air out of the box? I was so careful and actually removed my springs so I didn't damage the bags during installation. Everyone else stuffs and stuffs the bag into the spring without properly removing the panhard bar/damper/swing and then the springs. Here's where I get Mister right and one ofโ€ฆ

Very strong, no leaks, but very stiff even with the slightest pressure.

These springs work very well. They were easy to install on my 2011 4Runner springs. I wanted something that would help hold altitude when the kids and gear were in the back or when we were towing something. The only problem with this is that my 4Runner's back is very stiff, even at a minimum weight of 5 pounds! I don't really notice any rear suspension sag, so it feels like my new shocks aren't even working. I can't fault the airbags because they do their job and none leak. But I'll add someโ€ฆ

Fits the stock Lexus GX460

I installed these on my 2011 Lexus GX460 which came with factory coil springs. I use it to stiffen up the suspension while towing my 5500-pound road trailer. Installation was a little confusing as the diagram in the instructions seemed to indicate that you should leave part of the original bumper in place. But the first time I cut it it was too long and the back of my GX was about 1 inch taller. I had to go back and cut the bumper completely. Inserting the bags into the rollers can also be aโ€ฆ

What a useful and inexpensive modification. I build mine.

What a profitable and inexpensive modification. I'm building my 2015 Toyota 4runner as an overland rig. Now I have a Toyotac full suspension. On my last hike I had a rooftop tent, a cargo ship and trailer from the port with a 160 liter cool box, fridge and all the rest of the gear. The rear end sagged a bit compared to the front, and I could feel it on the freeway. The installation took about 3 hours because I wasn't in a hurry. Jack up the car and remove the 2 rear wheels. I slipped each bagโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • not reliable

Easy install on my GX470, perfect fit.

Installed on my 09 GX470. It lifts with 2" Dobinson's mainsprings. I plan on towing a bit so I added these pockets in preparation. Assembly was very easy after the springs were removed. I struggled a bit to fit the pockets in pushing the spring but I found the black ring that comes with the kit to be a great way to spread the weight and move the bag down.I mounted my nipple up as I'm a MetalTech -Got coil spring rebuild kit.Line through the stopper.I used a black washer on the bottom as itโ€ฆ

Works well, installation is not bad!

4Runner V8 4WD 2003 As many people have advised here and elsewhere on the internet, they can be installed without even taking the suspension apart. Sawz-all with a longer blade makes life a lot easier by cutting out butt scraps. It was a bit difficult to slide the deflated and folded airbag through the spring, but I didn't put it in hot water to soften it first, so maybe that extra step would have made it easier. Installation took less than 2 hours and most of the time was spent figuring outโ€ฆ

  • Few competitors

Great for towing, fits elbow grease

I installed this on my 2003 Toyota 4Runner V8 a few weeks ago. I was about to tow a 2000 pound trailer across the country and I wanted to brace the rear of my car before I did it. The airlift worked amazingly and kept my rig straight even after it was coupled to a trailer. Having never pulled that much weight on this vehicle I can't say it performs any better but I'm pretty happy with what I don't know. I walked well 30 pounds of airbag pressure. To be honest the installation was a pain. Basedโ€ฆ

This kit is downloaded for 4 runners 2014

I don't usually write reviews but wanted to share my positive experience. Fits perfectly on a 2014 Toyota 4Runner. First, you don't need to unscrew a single screw from this car for installation. The total assembly time was just over 1 hour and another 30 minutes for the professional assembly of the overhead line. Installation steps: 1) Lift the drill rig off the side frame until the tire is off the ground. Install a safety jack. 2) with a hacksaw or saw everything. Remove the first two rings of
