airbags

wazab,
I fitted airbags to my LC 80 series because I tow a van and I didn't want to put excess weight on the existing springs. The overall result has been great. I have travelled quite a few thousand Km's with them and they've performed faultlessly. Mine are Polyair bags. I ran them at 15 psi which seems a suitable pressure to run mine at.

Wazab,

I have Polyairs on a current model Prado. The bags have taken a real pounding without any problems. They'll be put on a new Prado next week.

Wazab, I fitted OME suspension to my Hilux (with approx 2 inch lift). I then fitted Firestone airbags on the rear leafs. The bags are great when we load up for a trip including ball weight of trailer. It is easy to travel with the vehicle level, even with our biggest load.

I keep about 10 PSI in them when we have a 'normal load' and go up to about 40 PSI when fully loaded.

Highly recommended, whether you change your springs or not, particularly if you vary your load a fair amount.

Wazab,
The black h/duty air bags are great with leaf springs,but the red bags on leaf springs are not that great, the bottom brackets are forever moving around.

thanks to all who replied i will be getting the black airbags just need to sort out which shocks to go with them TGM OR TOUGH DOG. cheers all

I have just fit an Air Lift kit to the rear of my Jackaroo and am wrapped with the result. Purchased direct from the USA from truckspring company in Michigan for $170AU delivered.
