4.8is '04 air sus inactiv/ conversion to KW coil-overs possible?

Hey Guys,

Just had the selfleveling inactive light go off. The X5 is a bit higher on the passenger side (~1"), but doesn't seem like any of the bags are leaking though, its the same level in the morning.

I did check the fuses for the Air Suspension in slots 79 (7.5A) and 87 (30A) and I noticed that there isn't a positive contact in the socket block for those two locations. All of the other sockets have positive and negative, but 79 and 87 only have negative contacts, there is no positive contact. I checked if there are any loose wires that might have fallen out behind the block, but didn't find anything. Can anyone confirm this is correct? Sounds odd to me...

So just before I go hauling off trying to fix this air system, which I don't really use anyway...

Thinking of just swapping out for coil-overs from the full 4-wheel air-suspension. Has anyone does this? Is it possible to do the conversion (various shock and spring attachment locations, etc)? Seems like the KW kit is the best that's offered for the X5...might throw in some sway bars while I'm in there and really be ready for summer!
