    Hi, I am thinking about getting these Air Lift (air bags) for my tacoma.

    Has anyone used this to lift the rear of the trucks?

    If I use it to raise the truck, and ride with a 2.5 inch lift, how will the ride quality be without load? I know they are designed for load balancing, but just wondering if they can be used for lifting the truck as well, thanks!

    in trucks, airbags are usually used to help bear large loads in the bed, very unlike air ride suspensions that street cars run. we use airbags to help bear a load, cars use airbags to bear all the load.

    Unless you have Pre-TSB springs, in which case, the 'bags bear all the load.
