Air shocks might be a better idea!

Hey Wolly.
Firstly work out what you want from the vehicle. ie, towing, improvement in handling, just return to former glory..
Then seek advise from a
suspension specialist on the spring rate requred to achieve the result you want.
'Assuming" your shocks are ok and you just want to replace rear coils then DONOT under any circumstance consider fitting an airbag to the rear to compensate for sagged coils. You will be masking a problem with an exspensive bandaid.
Coils shouldn't cost you more the $350 all fitted, possibly less.
