Can anyone recommend any? Had a quick browse on fleabay but didn’t know what the best brand was? Anyone had any success with these?

Ideally you want the type that you don't have to remove to adjust, these have the nut in the middle and opposing threads either side. Not sure if the Airmatic and ABC lowering links are different but worth checking on the eBay description.

These look like good value, have adjustability and look good quality: -

Are they known to cause issues with air suspension? My mechanic is concerned that the car has done 80k miles at the correct ride height and altering the height may cause issues with the air bags

Would they affect the raise facility on the airmatic, or the auto lowering as you get above a set speed?

No...everything should work as before.

Just had these installed, really really impressed. Great comms from the eBay seller, very helpful.
