Another Air Suspension Question
My 4.6is has 170K and the rear shocks need replacement. The rear air springs are original. Any thoughts about preventative replacement while I'm having the shocks done? Thanks!!

Please Observe the rubber or the bags, if you see little tiny micro cracks on rubber, your idea of preventive maintenance is very good idea.
PS: The air springs are very cheap..

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
For $200 a pair I'd just do new Arnott air springs while you are doing the shocks
