glad this came up and sorry to bring back an old thread.
O plan on installing the LC coils in the near future, ( and tundra up front) I currently have the 99 talls and airbags. Installing those required that the inner cones be cut down.
Now I am reading mixed things on the cones.....cut down, dont cut down, etc.

If I need the uncut ones, those will be very difficult for me to find. few and far between wrecking yards up here.

Now I'm curious to know if anyone moved forward with this, especially someone running OME 891s. I've been toying around with getting some air bags after installing my swing out since I have no desire to run a longer spring.

My 891s work well with my 4x Innovations swing out, but my truck definitely sags when loaded up with camping gear. It seems like we've gotten some good information from air bag manufacturers, but has anyone bit the bullet and installed a kit in 891 springs?

Interesting. As I visualize the forces involved, it makes sense. My thinking, taking it to an extreme, having a bag 1" tall would provide little to no value though. So, height does matter, just maybe not so much once the bag involves a few wraps.

If the recommended bag for a stock 3rd gen is 7.5" tall, that, IMO, serves as a nice reference point for lifted rigs. I tend to believe the 9" bag will serve me well in that respect, again with the same diameter, which should be snug within the coil...

I heard back from Air Lift:

Hello Tony

Unfortunately we do not have a direct application for your vehicle due to the lift but you can check out our universal 1000 bags to see if you will work for you. Here is a link to our universal bag finder that will help you determine the best fit:

How To Build and Install an Air Lift 1000 Universal Kit | Air Lift Company - Tow and Haul with Safety and Comfort

++++++

Hopefully that might help the OP and others...
Yeah kinda hard to find the perfect fit with a lift. I been looking thanks for the link
