(to understand function, take a 30cm plastic ruler, hold both ends & try twisting it).
the shocks could foul the airbags depending on where you locate the bags.
it may be possible to lose the shox, I vaguely recall that air suspension may be self damping. (bike shox were- - )
Oh I know that trust me haha I've been in and around all of it and been learning all about them, Quite interesting really and one of my favourite parts of the car so it'll be a shame to see them go but I can't see them coping with what my needs will eventually be so.
Yeah that's what I was thinking and the bags could also foul my stupidly wide wheels hahaha, that's easier to fix and I think there self damping too which makes me think I can modify the mounts where the original shocks sit and install the bags there
welllll, if you're fabricating things, then mounts & brackets could be fitted where you have clearance (within reason, of course)
you'd only need to retain the ARB
Yeah I'm having ideas now haha.
Gonna go jack it up, take pictures and get size & weight specs for the rear so that I have everything there when I go to do it
