Replacing Front Air Suspension on 2005 4.8IS

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to replace the front air suspension bags only, like the rear one I think. Mine are leaking.

Also, anyone has a DIY guide for the front axel ?

Thanks

Weasel will become famous soon enough
Unfortunately the front bags are part of the struts and not separately replaceable...

See the thread below. Instructions for both front and rear are there. Post #34 for the fronts.
