Hey just after a few idea's. ATM i have super low springs all round in my au. Now cause it is to low for my needs. What should i do? Put lowered heavy duty springs instead of super lows. Or get Airbags. Also i have a tow bar it would be nice to use it when i need to.

 but seriously, is it to low cause it sags in the *** when loaded? Or just too low in general? If its just when its loaded look into a set of "poly air springs", like air bags but without the gayness!  :

no such thing as too low
 :i need to go and get the SSL's reset in the rear of mine, just isnt as low as i would like, then get the front done to match! i disagree about bags being for fags but : the modern man often needs to carry more than what can fit in a traditionl wallet :and they give you heaps of street cred! one day ill get some hah

Im using Eibach 30mm lowered springs and BOGE shockers. With 3 people in the back, the wheel arch sits about an inch from the tip of the rim itself. With no one in the back, it sits 1/4 inch above the tire.
With air bags, be prepared to pay. Its not cheap. But it also depends on the way you orientate the setup. For intance, are you looking for quick height adjustment or happy with gradual, because the cost can be dependent on the type of pump you use. Is it for rear only or for front and rear? I recommend calling up and asking them for further advice as to your application. http://www.polyair.com.au/ http://www.airbagman.com.au/lightvehicle.html#
