    Air Bag brackets?

    Ready to do the Air bag conversion on the 130.
    Ive done some reading and am well aware of the Airbag man kit at around 1370 plus shipping.

    Ive looked up the truckspring info and have the part numbers which come to 370 AUD plus shipping.
    About 60 for line and fittings, bolts, which are easily sourced local.

    Does anyone know if the brackets can be sourced separately for a reasonable $ or have brackets they wish to sell?

    Breaking down the kit, (not denying some profit for development) but just cant see the apparent $900 asking for the mounting brackets.
    I recall seeing pics and dimensions for the brackets here somewhere but cant seem to find them again.

    thanks

    I brought the kit as it was a straight bolt on....yes top dollar, but suited me.

    I’m sure there is a thread for the mounts........

    That’s the thread I was looking for.
    Pity none of the pic links work anymore.
    I’ll send a PM
    Thanks

    Air Bag brackets?

    Yep..will do.
    I’ve done some changes on Tim’s drawing for top plates to suit the W01-358-5422 units
    This is apparently the units supplied in the kit.?
    Weeds can you confirm your top bracket total height is 65mm pls if you have a moment?

    I am getting these laser cut in the next week or so and am having 3 full sets done, with additional top plates to suit the longer W01-358-5426 bags (Tim’s original drwg )

    Mine are 65mm, although a 130 owner who used Tim’s drawing started with 52mm but adjusted the bracket to 72mm.

    I did the same thing and made my brackets up a couple of years ago.....I can help with dimensions and/or templates as I will be pulling them out in the next week to re-coat the chassis.

    Air Bag brackets?

    Thanks Fubar. I’m all sorted now for the main dimensions.
    Seems the bracket height is subject to some discussion/opinion.
    I’m assuming due to the bags rubbing reported on a few earlier fitments?
    I would appreciate this dimension on yours when you have a moment.
    I’m running Koni Raids on my 130 and with 216 mm shock travel, either truckspring will work ok but interested in anyone’s preference.

    For my info, which bags did you choose?
