If quality is the same then go local. Better back up service if problems arise, that $125 would be eaten up quickly with the smallest problem.

My polyairs are fine. No problems at all, make the car a lot more stable when towing.

Hi Mal B
I have just brought coil rite bags for my 1995 80series from airbag man which cost $275 delivered the next day exceptional
services,thought about buying from usa but decided after briefly talking to the guys here (found them very helpful )to buy local after all my wife keeps reminding me i have wasted more than $100 on lesser things.Fitted them myself in about 4 hours at an easy pace.
Hope this is useful.
Brett

Go the Firestone coilrights from the USA , [blue ones] higher psi rating than polyairs [ max 100psi compared to 35psi for the poly ] ,, fitting is easy and simple , trick is to read the instructions twice , jack up 1 side of BODY and remove wheel , put airbag into bucket of hot water to soften , squeeze all air out of bag and put supplied rubber seal over inlet point , the bag will slip inbetween coils of the spring ,saves having to remove spring for fitting , take rubber seal from inlet and bag will expand ,attach hose ect.

looks like you cannot buy air bags x USA for any truck that is not standard [ie 2in lift] thanks Mal B.
