Yes, very. But I can't see those Airbags lasting very long, even if they are Gen III Arnots.

If he has +2" dampers and +3.5" airbags then the bags have 1.5" of travel in reserve. So they aren't being over extended.

Very clever, but I think the sensors will not last long, the end stops on the resistance track are not meant to be used to limit travel and will surely break sooner rather than later due to the load imposed by that little strut.
