Default Adding air suspension to RX400h?

Is it possible to add the RX330's air suspension to the RX400h? And how much would it cost?

Default Not enough room to do that in the ..

RX400h which is chock full of extra Hybrid Synergy drive components. It needs every inch. I'd say about $25,000 would be the cost at Monster Garage.

you could get a aftermarket custom airbag setup for porbably 5k

you would have alot more travel but either way its a huge endeavor

Default The Hybrids require special training to ....

even change the hybrid battery. There is a High Voltage circuit that can kill someone if they hit the circuit. Emergency personnel also have special training to understand that the bright orange cables means do no touch! The suspension components could probably be accessed but extra care would be prudent. DO NO TRY THIS AT HOME!
