Carps Member 61 Member For: 17y 1m 3d Gender: Male Location: Caloundra, QLD Posted 23/01/08 10:43 PM Share Posted 23/01/08 10:43 PM Apparently there's an issue with the rear suspension setup on the BAs that makes airbagging a bit difficult (read: very expensive). It's not as simple as the Expensive Daewoo utes. I'm not a technical genius, but I know this was something I would LOVE to do but after doing a bit of reading figured it might be one of those way into the future mods...Do a search, you'll find what you need.

I got a price about 3 years ago but they had to fabricate new front end components as the orignal set up is too narrow for the bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was 3 years ago though when no one had done it. Maybe things have changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
