    Again what 04OFF said is right .

    With 250kg + on the ball you wont be able to have much in the vehicle , if you want to be legal and the AirBags wont cut it on there own .

    The suspension upgrade was only a adjustment to the valving of the shocks , axle loads are the same as previous models ,

    Tare and Kerb weights are listed as the same for the previous models . The weights I posted above are for our stock S4 and the stock S3 are really the Kerb weights but plus the 2 of us = 170kg in the front seats .

    The front axle Max weight is 1650 so at 1540 with 2 ppl and fuel that gives me 110kg to play with but then Nissan say you should add no more than 85kg to the front .

    I have run a tape over a S5 the hub to guard measurements are the same as our S4 was stock .

    I'm disappointed that Airbag man bags aren't enough to correct the sag at 210kg on the ball. Sounds like you need to have a harder spring AND the airbags. I'll get the bags, as it's not expensive and we'll see how it fares.
    Is anyway aware of a GVM upgrade for the Series 5?

    Y60 & 61 poor driver myself, yet truly wish for a 62 one day in comfy rich retirement :-)
    Has Airbag Man possibly brought out some coil replacement full On-Air bellows yet for your 62’s Gents?
    My 61 extended cab ute rear braced air bellows with current stupidly chassis overhanging snapping potential long tray do safely pump up to 100psi handstand rears at the Lygon Street Wog drag strip if needed :-)
