## Overview

The Daystar Air Bag Cradle (model KU09140BK) is a patent-pending suspension accessory designed to fit all 6" diameter convoluted air bags on full-size half-ton trucks (2WD/4WD). Made in the USA from durable polyurethane, it mounts low on the suspension to maximize wheel travel and protect air bags from damage. Easy to install in about 20 minutes with basic tools, this cradle enhances ride quality and rear axle articulation without sacrificing load support.

## 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.

Review: Air bags - I got these to handle the weight for camping. My truck doesn't sag as much. They're easy to install. So far no issues. I wanted something that allow me to not have a still ride. You can't have a custom leaf spring that does what these air bags. Leaf have to have weight off you're wanting to have load but they are stiff if you remove the load. I recommend the air bags. I have a 2010 tundra with fox shocks. My friend has a 2016 tundra with the same air bags on stock shocks. He has no load so his truck rides stiff. My truck has a tool box and bed cover. I have a load plus the fox shocks so my ride isn't as stiff.
Review: Working Great with Firestone "Red Label" RideRite Bags / 2017 Ram 3500 - I installed these under my Firestone Ride Rite "Red Label" air bags on my 2017 Ram 3500 4WD SRW diesel truck. (Firestone kit #2705) I take my truck on trails & overlanding trips quite a bit and I immediately knew I needed these when I discovered they existed. The airbags get stretched and greatly restrict the rear axle's articulation - as well as increasing the risk of damaging the bags. Installation for my setup was quick and easy. I let the air pressure out of the bags, unbolted the U bolt holding the lower bracket to the axle. Then removed the one bolt holding the bottom of the air bag to that mounting plate. Compressed the airbags up out of the way. I then bolted the Daystar cradle to the mounting plate with supplied nut and bold & then that plate back to the axle with the u-bolt. Took about 20 minutes to install both cradles using only a 9/16" wrench and 9/16" socket wrench. 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. So I keep the bags deflated when not towing or hauling. Truck rides nice and getting my rear axle's articulation back while retaining the airbag system is the best of both worlds. So far very happy with these and will update after a year or so of use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are you able to still have a stock ride height with the minimum bag pressure with this? If not, what’s the minimum lift achievable? (3rd gen taco)**
A: On my F150 with the minimum 5-psi in the bags there is no increase in ride height over stock. The cradles are not a "lift spacer" type of deal. They just keep the bags in place while under compression but allow the bag to separate from the axle when the rear suspension is in full droop. The pictures make them look thicker than they are. The actual seat of the cradle is maybe a little over 1/2" thick.

**Q: Does it come with 1 or 2 cradles?**
A: 2 cradles and mounting hardware.

**Q: Is this aluminum or steel?**
A: It’s polyester. not steel or aluminum

**Q: Will these work with airlift 50254? The diameter is 4” instead of 6”**
A: It's really going to depend on the bag size. Mine is a 6" diameter and fits the bowls perfectly when contact is made. Where as a 4" might not sit as well, and could cause the bags to fold over.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply Idea, Great Product
*by S***. on January 23, 2015*

These were not widely advertised, came across their existance in the various forums.. Decided to buy a set to go with the Airbags i was installing. Primary reason was to accomidate full suspension drop when the truck was up on a Lift in my garage. With Airbags installed without these, the suspension would extend too far when raised off the ground and the bags could be damaged. Installation was easy, word of advice, take your time aligning the bags over these to ensure they hit the center of the cradle. Cradles come with single center hole for mounting, but the mounts from the airbag company, have an ajustable base mount that allows the cradle to be moved forward or aft about an inch and this makes a big diff in alignment. Have about 300 miles on truck now, and there are no issues to report. Very Glad I found these. Highly recommended.
