Ride Rite Airbags & leaf pack alignment

Well the great news is I installed the TRD PRO fox shocks on the off road. Rides great so far.

I also installed the Firestone Ride Rite 2445 airbags - they seem to be slightly different than some of the 2 year old videos/photos I found. Has anyone installed these recently, did your lower bracket interfere with your brake line bracket at all? Mine is touching slightly but should be OK. Planning to contact them this week. See photos.

More importantly - I noticed my rear leaf spring pack, on the passenger side front portion, the longest leaf (that has the little hook/loop at the end) is about 1/4 to 1/2 out of alignment with the other leafs. Is this of concern? The rear portion of the leaf pack is perfectly aligned, just the front is out.

Thanks all!

 

I had to bend my parking brake line brackets out of the way a little bit. Doubt that is a very high tolerance item during manufacturing/assembly and probably varies between trucks quite a bit. The lower bracket under the leaf springs was pinching my ABS line on the drivers side so I had to bend that bracket a little bit too, passenger side had an 1/8" gap between the bracket and ABS sensor line.

Haven't seen the leaf spring issue you're talking about. Maybe see what Toyota would do for you if you're under warranty. Unless it's making contact with something else and causing damage it's probably not an issue.
