Cant see why not. Similar weight and set up. And yes the info says it complements the existing springs. But the way i read it you may need a source of air supply fitting or pop to fuel station to inflate!

The air shocks are quite simple, just connect the two pipes together and inflate. I bought a load of these as NOS and intend to try some on the cherry picker.

Sounds simple enough. From the looks of it you could just slide under the back and attach a 12v tyre inflator and inflate. You could drive to site without them inflated then spend a few minutes inflating at the end of the day before you head back to base.

I slipped some car coil springs over the bump stops on our hilux tipper. They worked a treat did very little when empty but came into there own when the truck sat down. Your air shocks could be piped into the cab and charged with a small 12 v compressor.
