Have just started down the path with my 99 cot expedition. Still has air ride and I just replaced both rear air bags 4 months ago. Rides ok but more like a boat.
Question is there any upgrades to make the air bag system better and eliminate the sway and boat like feel.
Or do you just abandon the air ride and go to springs and shocks ?

I ditched the air suspension on my '99 EB. I have Rancho shocks up front and some HD load-levelers from NAPA on the rear. Nice, solid ride; sticks to the road very well.

I went coil springs rear & coil over shocks up front a few years ago, dramatic upgrade, maybe the most vivid response improvement to any rig i've owned in my life. I can't say it sticks to the road, I'm guessing I need sway bar bushings at 175k, but the coil suspension makes it a dream compared to the tired bags I junked out.
