Suspension Air Bag Conversion?
Looking at putting suspension airbags in my 1970 Range Rover (there are conversion kits available here in Oz, Dunlop, Firestone), but I would like to get some opinions first. I do a lot of heavy towing.
Anyone had any experience in this? I wish to add self leveling units and am looking at truck types - comment? What about the roll-over aspect - the outside pumping itself up and the inside releasing air (and the next corner big trouble!). Solutions? /viz

Ranger Rims
Anyone know of a source of Ranger rims as OE fitted to some Range Rovers in the early-mid 90's I think, made in England. After four 16" rim

Curt... thanks for the heads up.. however I have shipped small items all over the world, and Australia is THE most expensive place to ship.. it would cost $200+ to ship those wheels.. probably more..

I would pay the money for rims in good condition. I have an off road trailer that I wish to convert over to RR rims - thus having some commonality.
/viz PS I do have contacts in the undustry as well, though not sure if that would help
