Rear airbag failure, coil-spring conversion with lift kit?

Jack Ryan · Apr 3, 2022

I've noticed allot of lift kits stating they don't work with airbag suspension or with coil over conversion kits.
Anyone with rear coil over conversion have a lift as well?
I've read on here people have used certain lift kits with air bags but had to swap bags to the opposite side. I'm wondering if the conversion kit may work the same way, just swapping left with right to get the lift kit to fit.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

any interest in keeping the suspension an air ride system? Suncore makes oem replacement strut and bag assemblies, they aren't that expensive and replacing them is not a hard job. I have a post on it, but you can also pick my brain if you want to go this route. I replaced my rear suspension complete assemblies as well as the air pump when I bought this truck last year.

Amazon.com

it looks like they are out of stock on amazon but you could probably message them, find their website or just google the same ones. I wouldn't go with cheap aftermarket, get these ones - they are OEM reman. assemblies, I paid 490$ plus tax for the pair and i've seen them drop slightly lower in price a couple times.

I actually went with coil over conversion and spacers for the time being. Was much cheaper and gained at least 2 inches in rear. Also threw on 35x11.5x20 tires which got me a little more hight. Now I don't hit my head on the rear door when working out of the back! Kept all air ride components if I ever choose to go back.
