Question:
I have a 2023 Toyota Tacoma, that has a topper and bed slide. The back seat and bed of the truck are filled with tools. The rear suspension is about 2.5 inches lower than when it was empty. What recommendations do you have to correct this?

Expert Reply:
Hey Andy. To address the sagging you have in your 2023 Toyota Tacoma's rear end. I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs item # AL49DQ. These work with the 4WD and 2WD models so long as your axle is mounted below the spring pack.
The Air Lift item # AL49DQ have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will level out the rear end of your Tacoma. All mounting brackets are custom fit and the hardware is included for installation.
I also recommend adding the Firestone Air Command item # F2610 to your truck. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in your air bags from your phone.
Is your truck a 2WD or 4WD model and is your rear axle mounted below the leaf springs?
