If those Air Bags are linked together it could be a potential disaster in the making when you turn a corner and the bag under compression transfers all its air to the other bag . It will accentuate body roll. They should be piped individually to avoid this.

Its would only be 4 - 5mm diameter pipe so not to much should transfer.

If you own a spanner then buy the Dunlop kit from Marcle leisure and fit it yourself. It will also give you a more comfortable ride.

Same here, I fitted the Dunlop kit which has resulted in a much more comfortable ride, better stability in windy conditions or when overtaking or being overtaken at motorway speeds, also fitting the kit has enabled us to uprate to 3850kg
Overall I'm extremely happy with the result, I'd recommend it to anyone considering the upgrade.

I fitted the gauge etc in the bottom of the wardrobe area at floor level, easy to access and with the simple setup I can check, inflate, isolate or adjust either side independently or equally by opening or closing either valve.
