A 90 year old man living in southeastern FL has an electric scooter mounted to a lift and the lift scapes and/or knocks speed bumps and when going over other dips and bumps on the road. The Lexus dealership told him to get air shocks but various car specialists told him that he can't get air shocks for this car (or for a Camry equivalent). I searched the Net and came up with nothing; the manager at a car shop did the same with the same results. The only alternative may be heavy duty springs, but he was told this would make the ride significantly less comfortable for him. If air shocks are not available for a 1998 Lexus ES300 and heavy duty springs are not acceptable, are there any other options? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I did a google search of "air springs" and came up with a couple: airridepro.com has custom strut applications. http://www.arnottairride.com has custom air adjustable shock absorbers. Hopefully, one of these will work. -- Ray O (correct punctuation to reply) Back to top   Ads Advertising Sponsor Guest Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2007 12:37 am    Post subject: Re: air shocks Thanks for trying Neither Arnott Air Rise Systems nor Air Ride Professional sell air shocks for the ES300 (1998) On Tue, 17 Apr 2007 10:57:42 -0500, "Ray O" <rokigawaATtristarassociatesDOTcom> wrote: Quote: damifino@whatsgoingon.com> wrote in message news:47n923pn8e3s373ho00uc8kch5dtjdf8am@4ax.com...
