Take the air springs out and fit coil ones. You'll need someone who can tell SLABS ECU that it no longer has air suspension. I'd also remove the compressor, level sensors and anything else e-bay-able.

Did my mate, and no not really. His had ACE on it, so it still cornered well. I'll probably do mine if it goes tits up. The air's a bit of a gimmick really.

You'll loose the self levelling, which will make her squat at the back if you tow something heavy.

You shouldn't be putting that much down force on a towbar anyway, if it's squatting, you aint got it loaded right.
