I put my 500lb motorcycle on the back of my truck(2010 Tacoma 4x4) with one of those MC carriers.
the truck sagged quite a bit. I had about an inch of travel for the 700mile trip.
I don't want to stress the truck out on the way home....can I just install plain old air shocks for the trip home to help with the load? Thanks in advance.
