    Hey all, I didn't find anything on this one, but could have missed it, so my apologies if that is the case.

    I put airbags on my 2017 Tundra SR5 and it absolutely ruined the ride when I wasn't towing. It was a great ride before I got the airbags, and then once those were on it was like every time my back tires hit a bump I'd be launched out the windshield (minor exaggeration).

    I now have the 2022 Tundra Platinum and will be towing my travel trailer with it but I don't want to put airbags on it. Is there another option out there that would account for the weight but not be as rough?

    Stiffer progressive aftermarket springs seem to be what you need.

    Weight Distribution Hitch with an appropriate size trailer (smaller than you think) and tongue weight are your best bet.

    I had to install airlift air springs and compressor when towing my boat there was too much sag.
    So far impressed with the setup
    Had the dealer do the install
