Getting Firestone airbags to Pajero NM

Getting Firestone airbags to Pajero NM

Any thoughts on a good place to put the air connectors? I have factory bullbar and factory back step.

Any opinions on whether to go the lift or no lift versions. I don't have any real need to lift so was going to go the no lift.

On my NJ I drilled 2 holes in the back bumper above the tow hitch, about 500mm apart where the bumper steps back a little, which the NM does not have.

Can you put them on top of the tow bar, in the gap between the tow bar and the bumper?

Ran the pipes from the bags back along the chassis rails to the bumper.

Nice and easy to get to at the rear.

I got my local mechanic to fit Polyairs to the rear of the Jack, & on his suggestion
put the air fillers inside the fuel filler cavity. Plenty of room there & not subject to
villains fiddling with them or other damage........oldbaz.

What sort of vehicle did you put them in the fuel cavity.

I would have to drill purpose holes to put them in mine which I prefer to avoid.

Vehicle is a Jackaroo. Sure, drilling holes was necessary, but unlikely to be able to
locate them without doing that anyway. Another advantage is the reminder you get when fuelling to check pressures regularly..........oldbaz.

Hows it going,

Just ordered these myself, for a Patrol the only diffenence between lifted and not was a bigger rubber spacer at the bottom.

Remembered reading about people ordering from the States so did some googleing and found some threads with info.

Saved a fair bit of cash , $450+ in Aus , $170(Aus) delivered from the states for the exact same item.

Michigan Truck Springs

These guys were really helpful and replied and shipped promptley ( although I havent got them yet )

hope this helps.
