The airLYNX for Toyota are adjustable rate sway bar end links that give you the ability to adjust the rate of your factory sway bar by simply airing up or airing down the links.
Once you find your preferred pressure (0-300PSI) you can either set it and forget it - or dial it in per trail.
For Toyota/Lexus models:

- Tacoma | 2005 - 2024 (2nd & 3rd Gen)
- FJ Cruiser | 2007 & Later
- GX470 | 2003 - 2009
- GX460 | 2010 & Later
tune your swaybar rate (0-300psi)
Go up to 300 PSI when you're on the road to maximise your control.
Drop it to 0 PSI when hitting the trails to maximise your articulation.
MORE PRESSURE = FIRMER FEEL
Fine‑tune the feel for daily highway driving. Around 150 PSI is often ideal for highway use, and if you are rolling with a heavy set up like a canopy or a tub rack with a roof top tent, go up to 200 PSI for even more control when on the road.
LESS PRESSURE = SOFTER FEEL
At 0 PSI, the sway bar remains fully disengaged for the first 3 inches of wheel travel.
SMART DELAYED ENGAGEMENT
After that, it increasingly engages—offering both freedom for articulation and a measure of control, even in rough or fast‑paced off‑road conditions.
Balanced Disconnect Performance
The airLYNX offers about 50% sway‑bar disconnect—ideal for high‑speed off‑road terrain where some sway‑bar force retains stability. For more extreme articulation (rock crawling, etc.), you’d use kwikLYNX instead with around 80% disconnect.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The AirLYNX system is designed to give you full control over your sway bar stiffness to suit your driving conditions. It can safely operate anywhere between 0–300 PSI, depending on the terrain and load.
- 0 PSI: Ideal for off-road use — allows maximum articulation and comfort on uneven trails.
- 150 PSI: Great for highway driving — offers balanced stability and comfort similar to a factory sway bar.
- 300 PSI (Max Pressure): Provides full lock-out, replicating the firm handling and safe on-road manners of a factory-rate sway bar.
You can fine-tune the pressure anywhere within this range to match your preference and setup.
Even at 0 PSI, the AirLYNX still functions as a standard extended sway bar link, so there’s no risk of compromising safety or compliance.
No. Fitting an AirLYNX will not void your vehicle insurance. The system doesn’t alter or remove any OEM safety systems — it simply gives you the ability to tune your sway bar stiffness for comfort or performance.
Even if the unit loses air or is run at 0 PSI, it still functions as a normal extended sway bar link, just like products from brands such as Superior Engineering or Roadsafe. Because it maintains factory mounting points and function, insurers view it as a non-structural suspension accessory, not a modification that affects compliance or safety.
The AirLYNX system is classed as an extended sway bar link, which falls outside the scope of specific ADR certification. ADRs (Australian Design Rules) apply to vehicle systems such as braking, lighting, and occupant protection — not to bolt-on suspension accessories like sway bar links.
The AirLYNX maintains the factory sway bar geometry and load path, ensuring it performs the same fundamental function as a conventional extended link, even at 0 PSI. In short, no ADR approval is required, and the AirLYNX is fully compliant for road use when installed correctly.
Most twin air compressors only reach around 150 PSI, but the AirLYNX system can handle up to 300 PSI.
For best results, we recommend using a hand-held bicycle shock pump, which can easily reach 300 PSI and gives you precise control over pressure. These pumps are typically available from reputable bike shops for around $70.
For even easier inflation, check out our Remote Fill Kit with the Zero Loss Chuck.
This setup relocates your inflation point to a more accessible location — like your front bumper or upper chassis area — making it simple to pump up your AirLYNX without crawling underneath the vehicle.
The Zero Loss Chuck also ensures no pressure escapes when disconnecting, so whatever pressure you set is exactly what stays in the AirLYNX.
AIRLYNX REMOTE FILL KIT
Make your life easier with the Remote Fill Kit + Zero Loss Chuck, allowing you to easily inflate the AirLynx through a port on your bumper or bullbar.
