Does anyone have any suggestions for which brand of air bags suspension support to get for my L400. I run on veggie oil, and on long trips my rear end is sagging with the load...
Thanks,
Rick

Firestone is a common brand and makes quality stuff.
I believe there is a pair of airbags at CVI right now, maybe give them a call? Not sure what brand they were.

Re: Air bag support for rear suspension
I put in an Airlift 1000 Airbag. Sorry can't remember the model number but it was for a 95 Montero. Fairly easy install.
My back end used to sag and bottom out every dip and bump.

Re: Air bag support for rear suspension
The only time rear end sag is an issue for us is when we load 2 adults, two teenagers, one dog, four bikes, camping gear, golf clubs and excessive amounts of beer into and on our L400. This only happens a couple times a year and I've always assumed it would be expensive and difficult to DIY air bags. The link in the last post shows the cost to be less than $200 and the install is easy(ish). Luckydad I'd love your feedback through the process. If all goes well for you I think I'll follow your lead.
Anyone else have two cents worth?

That is the right one. I have it as well.
Amazing instal. Might take you a couple of hours to do it unless you have a lift.
