Hi Darren,
Has the transformation been successfull ?
What sort of lift was achieved?
Do you have the necessary components avalailable to convert axle plate to accept coil spring base?
If so what is cost x coils?

Thanks
Castoy

just a question y would ya want to replace the bags with coils, really defeats the purpose of having a grande, you having trouble with them.

Hi Samo,
If i want greater travel in rear end i know the air susp want handle greater travel so i cant see point of having lift unless i can get extra travel. Therefore i am thinking that coils combined with other additions will get me better travel.

Just my thoughts, Castoy

We have looked at it, havent done one, but looked at it, cost wouldnt be huge, have also looked at different air bags, and air bags over coils, along with longer shocks.

Its the type of job you do for a customer who wnats what they want, and then you know what it costs.
