2003 GX470 with 195K. I have replaced air compressor (new not remanf), 2 air bags and both height sensors. Shocks have NOT been replaced. One shock is leaking. The pump comes on yet bags do not fill. Removed small hose to solenoid on reservoir tank and felt air coming out of the tube very weak. Anyone with any experience on this. I don’t want to replace shocks with electronic replacement if I decide to replace air bags with springs and use “regular” shocks. Thanks ---

I’d get rid of the air ride suspension and install regular springs and shocks. > **[2003 Lexus GX 470 Air Suspension Conversion Kits | Struts | Suspension Parts](https://www.strutmasters.com/collections/Lexus-GX_470-2003)** > > Strutmasters is the world leader in suspension products for your 2003 Lexus GX 470.
