  • Prado 150 Rear Air Bags

    G'day, I am just about to buy a pair of rear airbags for my 150 Prado to help hold the arse up when towing a camper trailer.

    The choice is between Polyair (Red) and Firestone / Airbagman (Blue)

    Does anyone have any experience or comments on which is the better product ?

    Thanks
    Jamie

    I have the blue ones in mine. I haven't had any issues at all. I would say most issues would be related to the install, rather than he bags themselves. Anyway, I give mine a thumbs up!

      I have the blue AirBagman airbags as well, if you get the additional outer Teflon covers for them they can be inflated to a bit higher pressure (from memory) and are also protected better from stone damage. I have had no problems, they work well while towing my caravan.

        IMO go the red.
        Blue has a clip in arrangement that can fail. Mainly from dust & mud getting in.
        Red is line pushes over & zip tie.

            For the record I went with the Firestone / Airbag Man bags because they had an optional Kevlar sleeve which allows them to hold a maximum of 60psi instead of the usual 30psi
            They work well and support the car when towing nicely.
            I respect the comments I received on the airline fittings being better on the Polyair but IMO prefer the Firestone ones as there is no barb to snap off (it is internal) and the fitting relies on air pressure to seal it and not a zip tie.
            I don't think mud will be an issue as one fitted they don't need to come off in a hurry and it would just be a matter of blowing the mud off the fitting or washing it off with a hose.
            Once again it is personal choice
