My D1 rear has sagged a bit over the years and as I tow my 15 ft van a bit more these days im thinking of fitting some Air Bags to the rear. What are peoples experience with towing with them? I usually use load levelling torsion bars but think the Air Bags might kill 2 birds as when we go anywhere without the van on and loaded the rear is a bit low.

I wonder how hard it is to adjust pressure?

You can also as part of the air bag man get a kit with a gauge and switch to adjust from the cab if you wish.
I have a set on my puma and before that they were on my td5 easy to fit on work very well. When we go away loaded with the camper just pump them up to about 18 to 24 psi and you are set. Mine have the valves at the rear of the back cross member and work quite well. Only thing is keep the nylon tube clear of the exhaust.
