Hey Kev. I am interested in any photos if you can. I need airbags now, but don't want to have to throw them out in 6-12 months when I do the suspension..

Don't have a lift in the Prado, but here is a photo of the airbags in my old GU Patrol fitted with a 2" OME lift.
Not the best, but you can see the spacer sitting under the airbag ( and a fair bit of Pilbara (Tom Price) red dirt as well)

Thanks Krypto - appreciate the feedback....300Kg's is a lot of weight on the ball plus (i'm assuming) all the stuff in the boot. If air bags can level your beastie, i should be alright as the Jayco allegedly is around the 120Kg mark. Thanks again.

My mates Jayco Eagle Outback with water tanks, front mounted storage box and all the other crap he carries is also well over 200kg. Makes for fun times when you try to move either of our campers by hand using the draw bar.

He and some other mates take their Jayco campers some places on beaches and other spots that you wouldn't expect them to go. I've been amazed by where we can get these heavy campers to go, but always a bit nervous when he suggests a new camping spot
