"Used rear air bags - free"


          

I have a pair of used rear air bags that I will send to anyone who wants them for the cost of shipping. These are not great, but they were working for me (sort of - see below) so they may be able to get someone back on the road.

The rear of the car was leaking down after sitting for a while in the lowered position, so I had been letting it pump up and then turning the air ride switch off. The rear would stay up for quite a while like this. I finally replaced the bags after the rear dropped completely and I heard some hissing from the drivers side when it was trying to pump back up. I used the floor jack to lift the rear of the car and the bag was able to pump all the way and hold air, as long as I kept the car in the raised position. So, the drivers side bag will leak if allowed to drop to uncover the cracks, but the passengers side appears to hold air OK.

If anyone thinks these may be of use to them, let me know.
