Product Description

We want our trucks to do everything. Hit the trails, tow the boat to the river, take to work and transport the family on long road trips. Adding an air bag system to your full-size truck or SUV has always meant scratching at least one of those off your list. With most air bag systems, the lower air bag mount is placed above the leaf spring significantly reducing wheel travel by design. Your air bag system should compliment your truck, not inhibit its ability. Daystar's new Air Bag Cradle* (Patent Pending) mounts to your trucks lower suspension providing more room for the air bag to safely cycle with no loss of overall wheel travel. Inferior lower air bag mounts restrict air bag movement using inadequate space, which can lead to unexpected damage to the air bag. Made from extremely tough Daystar Polyurethane, the Air Bag Cradle allows for full suspension travel, while still allowing the full benefits of your air bag system. The Air Bag Cradle fits most full-size pick up trucks, and SUV's running 6-inch diameter air bags and are made in the USA.

Customers say

Customers like the performance, ease of installation, quality and articulation of the air suspension cradles. For example, they mention it works well, the instructions are good and it's easy to mount. That said, they're happy with ride quality, and versatility. That being said, opinions are mixed on fit and thickness.

Customers are satisfied with the performance of the air spring. They mention that it works well for different applications, including towing and light off-roading. Some say that it allows them to run air bags yet still maintain full axle drop when twisting.

"Great product and works well for different applications...." Read more

"...So far it has worked well when towing and light off road. I wish Daystar recommended a maximum PSI when unloaded...." Read more

9 customers mention9 positive0 negative

Customers like the articulation of the auto part. They say it increases articulating, the suspension will have more articulatio, and it allows the truck to flex again. It's easy to install and a must-have for full articulaiton if you have air bags. The product eliminates the rear axle articulations issue for any load helper airbag system. It provides a stable base but flexibility for the rear axle to travel without stressing.

"...If you go off pavement these will give you back your articulation and make your ride a lot nicer...." Read more

"...Your suspension will have more articulation because of this.The cradle is well made and durable. Mounting is super easy." Read more

Customers are mixed about the fit of the airbag cradle. Some mention that it fits their firestone airbags well, while others say that the hardware does not fit. Some customers also mention that the craddle is a great idea, but it didn't fit their airbag correctly. Overall, the fit is not universal.

"Great fit with my firestone airbags on my Tundra." Read more

7 customers mention4 positive3 negative

Customers are mixed about the thickness of the auto part. Some mention that they're high-density plastic, so they won't rust or corrode. They also say that the added cradle is thick and with the suggested 5lbs psi in the bag it lifts. However, others say that they are very thick and reduce suspension travel significantly.

"...They're high-density plastic, so they won't rust or corrode, and hopefully won't break...." Read more

"...droop travel, you loose over an inch of compression because the cradles are so thick...." Read more

"...The added cradle is thick and with the suggested 5lbs psi in the bag it lifts the rear of the truck up about 5/8" without a load...." Read more

"These work great, they do add a little thickness under the bag so if you are installing them on a stock truck that is something you'll have to think..." Read more

Easy to Install - Prevents Damage to Air Springs if Off-road or Suspension Droops
I just finished installing Firestone Ride-Rite W217602407 ("2407") with Daystar cradles on my 2007 Tacoma 4WD TRD Access Cab truck. My truck also has an Icon Stage 4 suspension kit that includes their 51100 add-a-leaf spring pack. My factory helper springs were removed per Icon 51100 install instructions. The Icon add-a-leaf would typically add 1.5" of rear lift but my truck is outfitted for fieldwork/ camping and has a cab-high shell, ARB awning, Road Shower, custom wood deck, 150W solar panel, crossbars, 125 amp hour deep cycle battery and a Dometic CFX 65DZ fridge. All this junk took its toll on the Icon kit and the truck had a little sag, especially when fully loaded with water and other camping gear. Installation of the kit with cradles instantly restored the lifted ride height with the air springs at 5-8 PSI. The truck is headed out today for two weeks of Mojave Desert field work. I'll update this review if I have any issues with the cradles.If you are going to use your vehicle off-road, I recommend installing Daystar cradles so that the airbag does not act like a limiter strap, restrict downtravel and get damaged when the suspension droops. From what I read, it is not recommended to use airbag spacers and Daystar cradles together but you should confirm this for yourself.The bottom of the Daystar Cradle is 3/4" thick and does act like a small spacer, adding a little lift even with less than 10 psi in the air springs.When installing these cradles with the Firestone Ride-Rite air springs, the cradle will bolt onto the lower bracket that gets attached to the top of the axle with 4 carriage bolts holding two bracket straps under the leaf springs (see photos). Without the cradle, the air spring would be bolted directly to this lower bracket. Make sure the airbag is in good alignment before you tighten everything down. Firestone lists the torque spec for airs spring to lower bracket as 15 – 20 ft lbs, so I assumed it was the same for the cradle to the lower bracket.Please indicate if you found this review helpful!

5.0 out of 5 stars May not sit exactly center but it’s concave cup shape helps guide the bag base.
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2023
This base lets your bag “float” since the bag only mounts from the top bracket. Your suspension will have more articulation because of this.
The cradle is well made and durable. Mounting is super easy.

They are exactly as described. What more can i say? Super easy install. Lets the axle droop as far as your suspension allows and picks up the bag when loaded down.
