    Air bags will give you a better ride and increase carrying capacity. I can supply you with air bags, would need to know what model car you have to see if a kit is available or if a custom kit needs to be made. Ring me on 03 97415584 and I can find out for you and give you a price. I'm in Werribee.

    Just FYI, I replaced my air shocks with airbags on the rear of my 64 galaxie, heaps better for towing, but you need to replace the bushes in the leaf springs too. It behaves much better with a load on, (new standard shockers are needed) and looks very cool with the air out and the tail dragging. let me know how you go because my bro has a xm ute that needs bags too.
