Yep, I mentioned that (or tried to). The bags aren't the expensive part. The struts are 1500+ a corner.
where are the Porsche cayenne expo builds?

Arnott makes replacement parts for or a coil replacement for the older year models of the Cayenne. I bought a 1.5" spacer lift from a company in Germany. I have not installed it yet. I am still trying to find out if there is a way to do a speedo correction for a larger tire.

Yep.
Hence my question. Because the bags are easy to source. FWIW, springs usually last much longer than struts.
If I switch to coil, I won't be running an Arnott kit. I'll retro a Bilstein heavy duty shock.

Thanks. Aware. But that has nothing to do with my question.
So does anyone have a line on non-oem replacement struts for the air ride suspension.

Am I the only one in this thread that knows the difference between a strut and a spring (or air bag in this case)?
I'm not sure how else I can say it.

Note: "For the life of me" tacitly states I spent a long time searching. Hence a question on a forum.
But if you are going to get upset that I posted I know about the air bag offerings 4 times then get a little frustrated so post a smart *** retort, there's not much I can do to alleviate that.

Sweet well integrated bumper for the LX. Who makes that? Would be incredible on that type of vehicle in aluminum.

Well, in the front it's all one thing/integrated, thus why it's called a "strut" right?
So yes, Arnott makes the whole replacement item...

Good to see there is some discussion still going on here. I picked up a gray basic early Cayenne about a week ago and so far I have been very, very impressed. One thing that I did discover is that I got onto one of our more notorious heavily-potholed oil field roads that has a speed limit of 20 and a practical cruising speed of about 12-15 or so. The Cayenne with the center diff locked was very comfortable at about 48 and would have done more like 55 if I hadn't been worried about finding a killer pothole out there.
I am thinking that it's going to be a pretty good auto to take into Mexico in a few months. We have a toll road between Nuevo Laredo and Monterrey, and a gray Porsche shouldn't be high on the local cartel's most wanted list.

Um...or you can run the stock 17-18" wheels. Doesn't seem like you have read the thread.

Sorry, but there is no such thing as a "base model" Porsche within a 1,000 miles of my zip code. Around here, those are called Touaregs.
