Just about any car can be air bagged, just make sure it's done by a shop that will get it engineered and signed off as part of the installation. Choose wisely as to who you get too do it. Poor work will cost you in the long run and there are a few around at the moment who shouldn't be doing what they do.....

Be aware that to get it right on the deck you will need tunnel and rear rail mods, as well as signifigant mods to the front end.

If you just replace the springs with bags it wont go down very far at all.

I know of two I wouldn't use in Two of those areas as they don't use engineers. Maybe give Air Ride a call. They had a big stand at the Kustom nats just last weekend.
