Air Spring

Does anyone know where I can find Air springs that have a thru hole (donut shape), can lift at least 500 lb.  Dimension sizes around 10" OD, 6" ID (size can very)

RE: Air Spring

Firestone and Goodyear both make such things.

Look at mcmaster-carr.com and look up "air springs"

RE: Air Spring

(OP)
I have tried contacting them a few times, and have talked to there local reps.  The problem is they do not have a thru hole on these air springs.  They mount by threads on the top and bottom.  I need to run a 3/8-24 rod thru the center of the air springs.  If you know of any other sources to check out, I would greatly appreciate it

RE: Air Spring

If the max lift height is around 2-3" that would be great.  I might have found a source back East.
