I will keep in mind that type of ingenious technology if I come across the materials fer cheap and figure a way to implement them.

Fer now, I only have the dead wiring harness that I can put to use...which is basically free.

I did notice yesterday's run was rather smooth with the new tire installed.

I've been also looking/researching other replacements fer the air bag when the time comes to replace it due to age/wear. The Firestore Work-Rite suspension was too big and cutting it down would've reduced it's capability to function as designed. I ended up returning it today. I will need to contact Timbren about the axle-less suspension as it looks promising to use their 400lb rated spring as the air spring replacement in Dark Aero. I will probably have to install a bump stop fer the rebound. I will lose the adjustability of the air bag spring though.
