Balance the load on the trailer a bit better.

its the biggest car trailer (16 foot) u can tow with car , it would be better if i had a 4x4 .i need to carry tools as well . so heavy all over . some sort of pump up is what i need but having trouble finding them for ve or wm with coils ,if i had leaf springs it would be easy

Probably twisting your sub frame with that kind of wait, what's the car load / towing capacity, if you want to just get Pedder's to fit air bags inside your springs, I be more worried about vic roads and cops than your car tyres shredding.

Someone posted a link in a recent thread to what I think was a factory option air shock for VE.

I posted a link to the VF accessory instalation manual in a thread related to Holden's superlift shock absorbers. This manual describes the installation of such absorbers but i believe they are no longer available from Holden spare parts.

If i locate the link to the thread discussing these shock absorber, i'll add it here for completeness. Original credit for posting the link to the accessory manual goes to @scozz76's post where i found it

No trying to be a pain, but is your towing capacity up to it? A 16 foot trailer would be 800kgs by itself, with a car on it could be just to heavy for your car. You will need big upgrades to a heaps of parts to tow 2.5 to 3 tonne in a sedan no matter the engine
