I don't really have a need for them. If I do get them removed is there much involved?Cheers Edited 25/07/13 10:09 AM by underoath123 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85738-g6et-airbags/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something I've been considering for my XR6T instead of literally dragging the arse of it through the ground/rocks haha.Not 100% but I think they only need low pressure to keep shape when not being used to bear load. If you're going SSSL springs you'll probably have to remove them. They're probably the firestone ones, and they do have normal and lowered models so I'd say that they wont work properly with SSSL springs. They should be easy to remove, once deflated should fit out between the springs, but if the springs are coming out it's obviously a non issue anyways.If you do get rid of them and they are 100% working and in good nick still let us know as could be interested (they're not expensive new though mind you) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85738-g6et-airbags/#findComment-1412215 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're generally used for towing to be able to hold the extra weight without sagging.When you lower just take them out Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85738-g6et-airbags/#findComment-1412289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
