Hope listing in correct section. looking to install air suspension with cab control into rear of my 2006 GLX. Received a quote in excess of R 10,000-00. This seems excessive to me. Any recommendations who I can approach in Gauteng

Hi

I’m not sure who you contact? I had mine fitted for Just over R3000.00 . Without Cab control.
The Guys From Firestone in Jet Park did it

Hi JDV
I have been quoted on the Firestone air bags that are installed inside existing coil springs.

Virgilio,

1. Somebody is smoking his socks!!.. Contact "AirSpring Company" in Jet Park close to Johannesburg International . Their tel no is 011397 6390 or 082 554 7023. They ask about R2300,00 for a set. I installed it myself without any difficulty. I am on my second set and uses my normal traffel compressor to inflate them. I installed only one "filling" point at the back next to my towbar ball.

Cloyd,

Would you share some pics on your installation?

Thanks,
