    Nice ute,

    Got any photos of the rear airbag setup? How much did that set you back?

    Is airbag suspension more comfortable comapred to normal suspension?

    well i drive it pretty much as low as the bags can handle, there are two valves at the rear of my ute next to the rear number plate where they can be filled or deflated. only cost 500 bux new for the set up.
    considering how low it is they airbags arnt too rough.
    not alot better than springs though.
    It does make it handy in the sense that if i need to carry a load or something i can just pump the bags up a bit . will put pic up of the bags tonight. as they are on my home computer not my work one.

    so its not setup with an air compressor with a button in the cabin?

    You going to do this eventually or not?

    no in the cabin no.
    Im getting a small Cig lighter powered air compressor soon which ill mount in the tray.
    then i can just dump the back and pump it back up again before i take off.
    only takes about 30 seconds to fill them both at a servo.
    (im broke so real bags mite have to wait till my next ute), in a couple of years.
    would like a vy ss in a few years
