Okay, My RR P38 needs new suspension. How much would you pay for used Dunlop bags in good condition? I refer to all four. I need to know how much to spend without being stung.
Air bags.

That should be as much as you need to pay as it's an easy job to do [rust permitting ]

I wouldn't touch used airbags, waste of time and money, you can find new for £60 a pop.Okay, My RR P38 needs new suspension. How much would you pay for used Dunlop bags in good condition? I refer to all four. I need to know how much to spend without being stung.
+1
They last ~9 years, so I don't think they'll be good used ones that haven't had several years use.. and they were replaced for some reason...
L322 on the other hand I could see the logic due to the extortionate prices

Yup, £6 odd, worth it.It's worth also getting the clips as the old ones can be badly corroded
Look at Arnott suspension, I have not used them myself but hear they offer a good alternative to the dunlop bags. You can also buy just the bags for significantly less and take the old ones off the trumpets, clean the trumpets up and refit new bags. I have not done the job myself, but believe it to be relatively straight forward.

Arnotts are good, I have them but they are more expensive.
Fitting new bags to old bases is another false economy and getting them on and sealed can be a real bastard of a job.

Correct, but they are commonly referred to as airbags, we know what we are talking about even if you don't.

Anyway, I have ordered said air spring bags, clips, refurb kit for the pump and o rings for the solenoids thingys and a reset tool. This has set me back almost £400 so it had better work or I will be crying.

Cancel the reset tool and download the free EAS software and buy a cable for £16 or so to use your laptop, then you will also be able to re-calibrate the heights if needed.

Must be the RSW software.
