i have had air shocks in the past and wasnt too thrilled with them.. back in the eighties it was the thing to have them in the back of your car with a rediculous rake on it.. I had several large cars in the era and installed them and found the ride and poor traction in rain.. I would think a heavy duty gas shock would be better as well as beefed up springs if you are worried about hauling weight.. id also conside truck type air bags for lift
Advanced does have good deals if you order over $50 you get free shipping im real pleased with the stuff on there so far
