The CR5035HP High Pressure kit allows you to adjust air pressure from 0-150 PSI based on your current load requirements. Start with zero pressure when driving unladen to maintain factory ride quality, then progressively increase pressure as you add accessories, cargo, or towing loads. For typical touring setups with 200-300kg rear payload (dual battery systems, fridge, water tanks, rooftop tent), start at 40-60 PSI and adjust as needed. When towing caravans or trailers up to maximum rated capacity, you may require 80-120 PSI to maintain level ride height and optimal handling stability.
This kit requires professional installation or experienced DIY mechanical skills, with drilling and cutting required for airbag bracket mounting to chassis rails. Installation time is approximately 120 minutes for a competent workshop. While wheel alignment is not typically required for airbag-only installations (as factory suspension geometry remains unchanged), it's recommended to verify alignment if handling characteristics change post-installation. Consider pairing with upgraded shock absorbers if your factory shocks are worn, as airbags work best with quality damping control. A valve assembly (in-cab or bumper-mounted) allows easy pressure adjustment using a standard air compressor.

This Airbag Man CR5035HP kit is specifically engineered to fit Toyota FJ Cruiser models (GSJ and GJS series) manufactured between 2006-2016, and Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150 Series 5-door models from November 2009 to 2023. It's important to note that this kit excludes the Prado Kakadu variant. The kit is designed to work with factory coil spring rear suspension configurations. If you're unsure about your specific vehicle variant or have modified suspension components, we recommend contacting our team to confirm fitment before ordering.
This high pressure air suspension helper kit doesn't technically increase your vehicle's maximum GVM rating, but it provides adjustable support from 0-150 PSI to help your suspension handle loads up to the manufacturer's rated capacity. The airbags work alongside your factory coil springs to eliminate rear squat and maintain level ride height when carrying heavy payloads or towing caravans. By maintaining proper suspension geometry under load, the kit improves stability, reduces body roll, and protects your drivetrain from premature wear. The adjustable nature means you can fine-tune support based on your current load requirements, from unladen daily driving to maximum towing capacity.
The CR5035HP complete kit includes everything needed for installation: two high pressure airbags (one for each side of the rear axle), heavy-duty corrosion-resistant mounting brackets, all necessary hardware including bolts and fasteners, high pressure rated nylon air line tubing, air line fittings and connectors, and a manual inflation valve assembly. The kit also includes comprehensive fitting instructions with QR code access to detailed online manuals and diagrams. You'll need a standard air compressor for inflation (not included), and note that some drilling and cutting is required during installation. Professional installation is recommended unless you have advanced mechanical experience.
Absolutely — this high pressure kit is specifically designed for towing applications and is popular among Australian caravan and boat trailer owners. The adjustable air pressure (up to 150 PSI) allows you to compensate for towball weight and eliminate the dangerous rear squat that affects steering control, headlight aim, and braking performance. When towing at or near your vehicle's maximum towing capacity, you can increase air pressure to maintain level ride height and optimal suspension geometry, which improves stability and reduces sway. When not towing, you can deflate the airbags for normal ride quality. This versatility makes the kit ideal for vehicles that switch between daily driving and weekend towing duties.
No, control arms upgrades are not required for this air suspension helper kit installation, as the airbags work in conjunction with your existing factory coil springs and suspension components without altering suspension geometry. The airbags install between the chassis rail and rear axle housing, providing supplementary load support rather than replacing existing components. However, if your vehicle has worn shock absorbers, we recommend considering shock upgrades to maximize the benefits of the airbag system, as quality damping control works hand-in-hand with proper spring support. If you're also planning a suspension lift or have already modified your vehicle, contact our team to discuss whether additional components would be beneficial for your specific setup.
Wheel alignment is generally not required after installing air helper bags, as they don't alter your vehicle's suspension geometry or mounting points in the way that lift kits or control arm replacements do. The airbags simply provide additional load support between the chassis and axle without changing toe, camber, or caster settings. However, it's good practice to have your alignment checked if you notice any handling changes after installation, especially if you're running the airbags at higher pressures for extended periods. If you're combining this airbag installation with other suspension modifications like lift kits or new control arms, then professional wheel alignment becomes mandatory to ensure safe handling and even tyre wear.
Start with zero pressure when driving unladen to maintain your factory ride quality and comfort. As you add load — camping gear, tools, passengers, or towing — progressively increase pressure in 10-20 PSI increments until your vehicle sits level and maintains proper ride height. For typical touring setups with 200-300kg rear payload (dual batteries, fridge, water tanks, rooftop tent), most users find 40-60 PSI provides adequate support. When towing caravans or heavy trailers, you may need 80-120 PSI depending on towball weight. The key is to adjust based on visual ride height and handling feel — your vehicle should sit level front-to-rear with no excessive squat. You can easily adjust pressure using any standard air compressor via the inflation valve.
This is an air suspension helper kit, not a lift kit, so it doesn't provide additional ground clearance or tyre clearance for larger diameter tyres. The airbags work with your factory suspension to maintain correct ride height under load rather than raising your vehicle. When inflated, the airbags prevent rear squat and maintain factory ride height; they don't lift the vehicle higher than standard. If you're looking to fit larger tyres and gain ground clearance, you'll need a dedicated suspension lift kit with raised coil springs or spacers. However, this airbag kit works perfectly alongside existing lift kits to provide adjustable load support once your vehicle is already lifted and running larger tyres.
This Airbag Man CR5035HP kit is covered by the manufacturer's comprehensive warranty, which protects against defects in materials and workmanship. Airbag Man has maintained their reputation for quality and reliability over 25 years in the Australian market, and they stand behind their products with proper warranty support. Warranty coverage requires professional installation or self-installation following the provided instructions exactly, and the warranty does not cover damage from improper installation, vehicle accidents, or modifications to the kit components. For specific warranty terms, duration, and claims procedures, we recommend reviewing the warranty documentation included with your kit or contacting our team before purchase. As an authorised Airbag Man dealer, we can assist with any warranty-related questions or claims.
Yes, this kit is excellent for daily driving, especially if you regularly switch between unladen and loaded driving conditions. One of the key advantages of air suspension helpers is their adjustability — when driving unladen around town or commuting, simply run the airbags at zero pressure to maintain your factory ride quality and comfort. When you load up for a weekend trip or need to tow, inflate the airbags to the appropriate pressure for your current load. This versatility makes the kit ideal for dual-purpose vehicles that serve as both daily drivers and weekend adventure rigs. The installation doesn't compromise your factory ride quality when the bags are deflated, and you gain significant handling and safety benefits when carrying loads or towing.
Perfect for My Work Prado
Been running these airbag helpers on my Prado for about 6 months now, carrying tools and materials every day. The difference when loaded up is night and day - rear end stays level even with a tonne of gear in the back. Install was straightforward enough to do in the driveway on a Saturday arvo, and they've handled some decent corrugated dirt roads out to job sites without any dramas.(5)
Best upgrade for my Prado yet
Just got back from the Simpson and these Airbag Man helper springs completely transformed how the Prado handled with a full load of recovery gear, water, and camp setup. The difference in rear-end sag was night and day, and I could actually adjust the pressure to suit different track conditions. Fitment was straightforward enough to do in the driveway, and they've held up perfectly through corrugations that would normally have me wincing. Seriously impressed with how much more planted the whole rig feels now.(5)
Perfect for our loaded up family trips
We load up the Prado pretty heavy with camping gear, water tanks and the kids' stuff for our monthly trips out bush, and these airbag helper springs have completely sorted out the rear sag we used to get. The ride quality is noticeably better even on corrugated tracks, and being able to adjust the pressure depending on the load is brilliant. Installation was straightforward enough for a weekend job in the shed, and they've been rock solid over the past six months.(5)
Perfect for My Loaded Work Prado
Been running these airbags on my Prado 150 for about three months now and they've completely sorted the rear end sag when I'm loaded up with tools and materials. The difference is night and day - no more bottoming out on site access tracks, and the adjustability means I can dial it in depending on the load. Installation was straightforward enough and they've handled some decent corrugations without any dramas.(5)
Perfect Addition for Our Prado Camper Setup
Been running these airbag helper springs on our Prado 150 for about six months now and they've completely transformed how the rig handles when we're loaded up for family camping trips. The difference is night and day when towing our camper trailer through the High Country - no more sagging rear end and the ride quality stays comfortable even with all our gear aboard. Installation was straightforward enough for a weekend DIY job, and the adjustability means we can dial it in perfectly whether we're empty or fully loaded.(5)
