    Someone help! 2016 tundra limited stock suspension now.....but wanted to level the truck and was thinking of the new falcon shocks my question is I do some towing of my travel trailer and also making my tundra into an overland style rig that would pack more weight on the rear. I dont want a full lift and was also thinking that I wanted the Firestone ride rite airbags. Is this overkill. Should it be done? Or will the falcon 3 way adjustable shocks be enough ?

    I don't have first hand experience with Falcon specifically but between the added weight of your gear an a travel trailer I imagine you back end is going to sag significantly. For towing specifically a weight distribution hitch can go a long way with sag issues. The shocks are not going to help with sag. May want to consider an upgraded leaf pack to help handle the constant load of Overlanding gear. Airbags do work well to level when your hauling, just not sure it's best for your application. I'll let some of the Overlanding folks chime in.
