had a shop install the air bags for me not to long ago. the question I have it when I go over bumps or speed bumps. I hear what sounds like the bags making noise. the suspension for now is stock so not to sure if anyone here has the same setup w\out the noise. also now when I run over speed bumps, I can also hear something loud like a metal piece. not to sure if anyone can help!

Don't won't to come off like a jerk but I found that trucks make more noises than cars. Even nice rigs.

Not sure what you had in the past?

Do you think it's from the air bag moving in the spring? You could pump it up more but that would make it stiffer. Load it up with 100 lb's and run over 10psi.

Post a pix - check out my old set up. Now mine is hyper red neck and I have replaced the bags with OME heavy spring and cut 3/4 off the spacer (yes still running the spacer for the south of the border look). Others may put one up for you to do a comparo that are more stock.

Good luck.

the noise wasn't there before the air bags were installed.
The Runner to me is very quite stock. At least for a SUV it's nice to me. It was just after the bags were put in all the noise stated happening.

I tried it at 20psi, 10psi and took a trip with a full load. sounds like the bags are rubbing on the springs.
