I already do this anyways sometimes when the GT1's are tied up rather than waiting.

But hopefully the extended warranty will cover it. They don't cover shocks because that is considered a maintenance item. But the "air spring" isn't maintenance, but an important component of the suspension that supports the weight of the vehicle. Cross your fingers! But if not, it isn't a bad job for DIY
