G`day Patrick , I`ve not looked into it much but will be needing some for self soon . As you say Bilstein make some but make sure on the length as it`s needed . Mate had some on the front of his P38 which were shorter than factory but bought for the car and when the suspension was up as you can imagine , it didn`t work too good . Armstrong and Boge make oiled ones and the Bilstein and QH are the only oil/gas one i`m aware of . The bilstein would need to be pretty special considering they are better than twice the price of the others unless you know someone i guess . Cheers --Previous Message-- : : : --Previous Message-- : Thanks for the reply Zorba, I have done a : bit of investigation and it seems that very : few aftermarket companies make something for : the Air Suspension except for Bilstein, I : have no problem with using them but I : thought that there must be some other : company making something to suite, hence the : question. I was hoping that Koni might, this : would give me a good comparo between them : and Bilstein. If I can't find anything else : then I will probably get the Bilstein's : anyway as I've had an excellent run from : them on all my coil sprung rigs before. : OEM? not sure whether its a smart move or : not. : : Regards:- Patrick M. : : : What about using OEM ? : : --Previous Message-- : Hi Blokes : Any one got any clues on what brand of : shockies to fit to the Air Suspension of my : 93 Rangie. : Regards : Patrick M : : :
