Re: Air lift
Please reconsider the folly you are about to embark upon.
Airbags will completely destroy any kind of articulation you might want
expect while offroading. The ride will be seriously choppy if not downright
dangerous.

Re: Air lift
I have seen the internal bags used as load levelers for towing. They
basically replace the spring when inflated so the ride would be
something like my CJ7's....
Yes, the bag itself takes over from the spring.
One set there kinda implied a dynamic balancing act, but I didn't read
it good.
