Re: air bag help

You would probably be better off finding someplace that custom makes leaf springs. When I had leafs on my Jeep I used a shop in Colorado. We measured each corner weight and they built a custom spring pack. A little taller but much better ride. I actually ended up with more leafs but a better ride. Springs lose their lift and ride quality as they age. A military wrap is 2 leafs at the eye and take some of the weight off the longest spring. They can also wrap the eye in the opposite direction to give you a little lift.

I would think adding air bags would have adverse effects by not allowing the leafs to work like they should.
