air shocks

Hello



Is it possible to get air shocks for a 1998 Lexus ES300?



A 90 year old man living in southeastern FL has an electric scooter mounted to a lift and the lift scapes and/or knocks speed bumps and when going over other dips and bumps on the road. The Lexus dealership told him to get air shocks but various car specialists told him that he can't get air shocks for this car (or for a Camry equivalent). I searched the Net and came up with nothing; the manager at a car shop did the same with the same results. The only alternative may be heavy duty springs, but he was told this would make the ride significantly less comfortable for him.



If air shocks are not available for a 1998 Lexus ES300 and heavy duty springs are not acceptable, are there any other options?



Thanks in advance for any advice.



I did a google search of "air springs" and came up with a couple: airridepro.com has custom strut applications.

has custom air adjustable shock absorbers. Hopefully, one of these will work.

Thanks for trying

Neither Arnott Air Rise Systems nor Air Ride Professional sell air shocks for the ES300 (1998)

I thought that one of their "custom" applications might work.

Sorry I couldn't help.

I didn't just check their websites; I called.

I'm sorry your leads didn't pan out, but I thank you again for trying.
