Hi Trevor.  Yes I have but replaced with springs.  Was an easy job and thought the springs were actually very good re road holding and off road.  I also lifted it 2 inches at the same time.  If you want any more info, pm me.  Happy to chat through.  Alan.

Bags are 5 mins a side to replace. Be sure to buy new retaining clips

Compressor is similarly easy, make sure the pipes go in the correct place

Sensors are another easy swap, but will likely need calibrated after fitting


If you are replacing with coils, buy a kit with everything needed. New spring seats and bolts, and plastic isolators. Takes around an hour to fit
