Installed on our 2013 Tundra double cab last year, after porposing down OK section of I-40. Significantly improved the ride while towing. We use the tundra mostly for pulling the trailer so it is either loaded or unloaded. Unloaded the Timbrens do no engage so ride is stock.
I've had air bags before, but for our need this $40 purchase and 30 minute installation was perfect. I have come across several other Tundra owners in the campgrounds that went this way with travel trailers, but most of the Tundra owners pulling 5th wheels I have talked to went to air bags.
As several have stated, this will NOT increase the load capacity of the axle but does change the deflection and dynamics of the bounce. If you have a WD hitch now you will probably have to change that adjustment with the Timbrens.
