I would favor replacing both in front or rear, unless OE. Why? I don't know, maybe
because of the aftermarket thing. YES, please keep us all posted and several pics (side by side,etc). Front or rear?

Re: Arnott Inc ar airspring
Someone has to dip their toe in the water, I guess it is my turn. I replaced a OE a few months ago. The cost difference is appealing. Will hope thier compatable in preformance. They claim no need to replace them in pairs. Let you know.

consider this....
if it was a steel spring then the load and rating would need to be the same fomr MFG to MFG.
But.. being its doing nothing more than holding air according to the pressure sensors of the suspension system then there is no true difference. Assuming the dimensions are all the same. With our system the ride and rebound is more about the shock than the air spring.

I just remembered - Fronts only at this time ...
Where are you? I am in need of some dimensions on the front six hole bolting pattern for some CAD models I would like to finish for coilover spacers. I really do not feel comfortable with them without a visual inspection of some plots I've made.

So what's the concensus?If one in front leaks change that or both front?
I'm at that poin: the front end usually looses a level overnight.........The dealer can't find a leak, so I guess I will end up replacing both fronts?
