    Anyone have any insight ?
    They list them for Defenders. I have a County which has the same coil spring inside diameter.

    but are yours Firestone bags or Air Lift bags ?
    They only list Air Lift (red) bags for 110/Defender and Firestone (blue) for 90, Disco, etc.

    It's for this reason I did not proceed further down this path (though the information was appreciated). Didn't want to give my insurance company an excuse for not paying if something went wrong.

    The didn't sell the Defender 110's in the US - only the NAS Spec 90's. Hence their equipment is certified for use in 90's only - which would have a considerably different load rating etc. than the 110's I reckon.

    my disco had poly bags on when i bought it not sure when they were fitted but took one out after getting it staked when i was in the bush. Meant to replace but never got round to it . Now some two years later the other one is completely perished so i have doubts about how long they last. I would reccomend speaking to someone like the airbag man to get an idea on what is going will last longer. I'd rather pay slightly more for something that is going to last the distance. Has anyone else had any issues with them or is it just my misfortune.

    err- actually, they did, but limited volume (536 units imported in 1993). Known as the NAS 110 and quite rare.

    Glen, they fit and work perfectly in the County. You can have a look at them any time convenient. I have had a full load in the back of around 700kgs, and a trailer on behind same time with about another500kgs. of cargo
