Im running the re7 from *****************. Definatly the cheapest place to buy them. The have internal bump stops. I love them. I already had a load of bricks in the back and just added a little air and stayed level. Just make sure you use two seperate schrader valves, one for each corner.

I'm Pretty sure the ports are 3/8. I used an adapter to go from 3/8-1/4 and used the 1/4 hose kit from suicide doors which comes with the hose the right angle adapter for the bags and the schrader valve. I think the bags were 150.00 and the hose kit was like 10-15 bucks. The have free shiping as well.
