    Stiffer sway bars only if the bags and shocks are tuned independently to body roll. The largest Firestone bags that kinda fit are 160 lbs front and probably lower again for the longer bag in the rear.

    Oh good grief... the Torsion Bar is directly connected to the Actuator and is part of the ACE system.

    The ram acting upon it changes is resistance. You certainly don’t need to attempt to change it.

    yep ,, but until you actually lower the car onto the ground, its all guesswork on how much longer,,
    theres no guesswork needed with bags,,
    but as the added weight should be constant, and you have to remove the springs anyway

    but,, if you connected the new bags to a compressor and wired that to the Raise switch on the D2 dash-----

    No guesswork in it at all.

    Weight, compression, current spring rate..

    A few calculations and you have your answer Adjustable Air shocks in the front?
