The beauty of airbag suspension is infinite adjustability — there's no need to select a fixed spring rate. Start with 20-30 PSI as a baseline when loaded, then adjust up or down based on your specific load and desired ride quality. For heavy caravans (2000-3000kg), you may need 60-80 PSI, while lighter camper trailers might only need 30-40 PSI. Common rear loads that benefit from airbag support include roof-top tents, dual battery systems, water tanks, toolboxes, fridge/freezers, recovery gear, and tongue weight from trailers and caravans. Always inflate to the minimum pressure needed to level the vehicle — over-inflation can create a harsh ride.
This kit requires drilling and cutting for proper installation and is best suited for experienced DIY installers or professional workshop fitting. Total installation time is approximately 120 minutes for a competent home mechanic with proper tools and a vehicle hoist. The kit includes comprehensive step-by-step instructions accessible via QR code on the packaging or through the Airbag Man website, with clear diagrams and photos. While wheel alignment is not mandatory for airbag-only installations, we recommend a full suspension check and alignment if you're also upgrading control arms, springs, or shocks at the same time. Once installed, test the system through the full pressure range before loading your vehicle.

This Airbag Man CR5035 kit is specifically designed for Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150 Series (5 door) from November 2009 to 2023, excluding Kakadu variants. It also fits Toyota FJ Cruiser GSJ and GJS models from 2006 to 2016. The kit is engineered for coil spring rear suspension configurations only. If you're unsure about your specific variant or have aftermarket suspension already installed, please contact our team for fitment confirmation before ordering.
This kit doesn't technically increase your vehicle's GVM or payload rating, but it allows you to maintain proper suspension geometry and ride height when carrying loads up to your vehicle's legal maximum capacity. The airbags provide adjustable support from 0-100 PSI, effectively preventing rear-end sag and maintaining level stance when towing caravans up to 3000kg or carrying heavy rear cargo. Always operate within your vehicle's factory GVM and towing capacity limits as specified in your owner's manual.
The CR5035 kit includes everything needed for installation: two heavy-duty air springs (airbags), all mounting brackets and hardware, high-pressure nylon airline tubing, push-to-connect fittings, inflation valves with mounting hardware, and comprehensive installation instructions accessible via QR code. All fasteners, clips, and components required for a complete installation are provided. You will need to supply your own inflation device — a standard tyre pump, portable air compressor, or service station air line will work perfectly.
Absolutely — this is one of the primary applications for airbag helper springs. The adjustable air pressure allows you to dial in the perfect amount of support for your specific towing setup, eliminating rear-end sag and maintaining optimal suspension geometry under tongue weight. This improves stability, reduces body roll, enhances braking performance, and keeps your headlights properly aimed when towing. You can adjust pressure on-the-go as loads change, making it ideal for variable towing applications from light camper trailers to heavy caravans.
No, control arm upgrades are not required when installing airbag helper springs, as this kit works with your existing factory suspension geometry. However, if you're planning a complete suspension overhaul or adding significant lift height with coil springs, upgraded control arms can provide additional benefits including improved articulation, corrected geometry, and enhanced durability. Airbags are a standalone upgrade that can be installed independently or as part of a comprehensive suspension system. Contact us if you'd like advice on complementary upgrades for your specific application.
Wheel alignment is generally not required when installing airbag helper springs alone, as they don't change your vehicle's suspension geometry or alignment angles when properly fitted. However, if you're also installing lift springs, new shocks, or control arms at the same time, a professional four-wheel alignment is mandatory to ensure correct toe, camber, and caster settings. We always recommend a full suspension inspection after any modification. If you're only adding airbags to your existing setup, simply test the system through the full pressure range and you're good to go.
One of the best features of this kit is how easy it is to adjust — you can use any standard tyre pump, portable air compressor, or service station air line to inflate or deflate the airbags. The kit includes remote inflation valves that mount in accessible locations, allowing you to make pressure adjustments in seconds without tools or special equipment. Start with 20-30 PSI when loaded and adjust up or down based on your load and desired ride quality. Many users keep a portable 12V compressor onboard for adjustments on the road or at camp.
This airbag helper kit is designed to work with your vehicle's existing ride height and doesn't provide lift height for larger tyre fitment. Airbags are primarily for load support and maintaining level stance under load, not for increasing ground clearance. If you're looking to fit larger tyres, you'll need to consider a complete lift kit with raised coil springs, longer shocks, and potentially control arm adjustments. The airbags can then be added to that lifted setup for additional load-carrying capability. Contact us for advice on complete suspension packages for your Prado or FJ Cruiser.
This Airbag Man CR5035 kit is covered by the manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Airbag Man has been manufacturing quality air suspension products in Australia for over 25 years and stands behind their products with comprehensive warranty coverage. Warranty terms and conditions apply — proper installation, operation within specified pressure ranges, and use within your vehicle's legal load limits are required. Keep your proof of purchase and installation records for warranty claims. Contact us or Airbag Man directly for specific warranty details and any support needed.
Yes, absolutely — when deflated to zero pressure, the airbags have minimal impact on your vehicle's unloaded ride quality and daily driving comfort. This is the beauty of adjustable air suspension: you only use the support when you need it. For daily commuting or unloaded driving, simply deflate the bags and your vehicle will ride on its factory coil springs as normal. When you load up for a weekend trip or hook up the caravan, inflate to the appropriate pressure for perfect support. This versatility makes airbags ideal for vehicles that serve dual purposes as daily drivers and weekend tourers.
Perfect for Family Camping Trips
Been running the Airbag Man helper kit on our Prado 150 for six months now and it's been brilliant for our monthly camping trips down the coast. The difference when towing our camper trailer is night and day - no more sagging rear end and the ride quality stays surprisingly comfortable even with the kids' gear, water tanks and all our camping equipment loaded up. Installation was straightforward and the adjustability means I can fine-tune it depending on the load we're carrying.(5)
Best upgrade for my loaded Prado
Chuck the Airbag Man helper kit on my 150 Prado a few months back and it's been a game changer for hauling tools and materials to site every day. The rear end used to sag pretty badly with a full load but now it sits level and handles way better on the highway. Dead easy to install too, took me about two hours in the driveway and the quality of the components is top notch.(5)
Transformed My Prado for Remote Touring
Been running these air helper bags on my 150 Prado for six months now, including a Simpson Desert crossing and multiple Cape York trips. The difference in handling with a full load of recovery gear, water, and fuel is night and day - no more saggy rear end or wallowing on corrugations. Installation was straightforward enough to do in the shed over a weekend, and the adjustability means I can fine-tune pressure depending on whether I'm solo or loaded up for extended remote travel.(5)
Perfect for our loaded up family adventures
We've been running the Airbag Man helper kit on our Prado for six months now and it's made a massive difference when we're loaded up with camping gear and the kids. The rear end no longer sags with our rooftop tent and drawer system, and the ride quality is noticeably better on corrugated tracks. Installation was straightforward enough for a weekend DIY job, and being able to adjust the pressure for different loads is brilliant.(5)
Best upgrade for my loaded Prado
Got the Airbag Man helper kit fitted to my Prado and the difference is night and day when I'm carrying tools and materials to job sites. Used to sag badly with a full load but now it sits level and handles way better, even took it down some rough tracks on the weekend without any dramas. Installation was straightforward and for the price you really can't go wrong.(5)
