How to Level Out Rear Sag on a 2018 Toyota Sequoia SR5

Question:

Hello. You guys seem to always have given me good info so..... I just dropped $2500 on the coolest hitch tire/cargo carrier but it looks like garbage because the trajectory of the hitch isnt level with the vehiclefront to back like every other rig Ive had, it goes down and my awesome cargo tire carrier looks like crap.... Is there something wrong with my hitch? Its a factory hitch on a 2018 Toyota sequoia sr5 that has a few toys your techs have suggested.

Ideally you're staying under the weight capacity of the hitch on your 2018 Toyota Sequoia SR5, but if the weight of the carrier and cargo is more than what the tongue weight of your trailer hitch is rated for then that would be why it looks like your hitch is overloaded - because it is.

If you're within your weight capacity then you could just be seeing the stress of the weight taking a toll on the rear suspension of your vehicle and to remedy that we have the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60786 which is designed with the SR5 in mind, but it won't fit if you have any type of factory installed auto-leveling system.

Air bags won't increase the weight capacity of your vehicle but they do help to support your OEM suspension, and this kit will help with up to 1,000 lbs of weight.

I'm linking a review video for you to check out.
