hi guys, i have not yet bought the soarer but it did go for a rwc today and the r/h rear air bag/shocker is leaking.now i have a few options....... ive spoken to crossover and they will charge $1030 fitted, i have spoken to ferntree gully toyota and they want $733-790+gts trade depending on which model, and finally i have spoken to a bloke off the forums named kieran who wants $200 inc post for a good used one.i am waiting to hear back from the mrs as she works at toyota in berwick (it's to be her car). now im curious as to how hard they will be to fit, i have all tools air/jacks/ramps and a tiny bit of mechanical knowlage (ok mabey i have a clue).so how hard will they be to fit, for all the people that have done them before?? thanks in advance, matt

If you're going to keep the car then the left rear won't be far behind, and the fronts too. Replace them all with new ones is the only long-term solution aside from going to coilovers but that will cost just as much for new ones and 2nd hand will have a good chance of ending up the same as what you have now.

HI Matt,

I have just replaced my airbags with new ones and fitting them is simple. The rear airbags are actually easier to install compared to the fronts.
