Are Daystar Cradles Needed and Are They Compatible With Air Lift Coil Helper Springs
Question:
Ive read that something like a Daystar cradle can help when installing airbags. Would you recommend it? If so, what model to go with this part? Application is a 2012 Toyota Sequoia Limited 4WD.

According to the folks at AirLift, their air helper spring systems are compatible with Daystar Cradles, but using them will void the product warranty of the air helper springs.
Some folks at Firestone have told us the same about their Ride-Rite systems, but we have also been told that because Firestone haven't tested them, they don't recommend them.
From what I understand, the cradles are for allowing additional suspension travel, but we don't carry them and I don't have any personal experience with them.
I've linked to a demonstration video for the AirLift Coil Air Helper Springs.
