Air Bag 1/4 elliptic [Archive]

I am planning on going 1/4 elliptic on the rear of my toyota. I was thinking of putting an air bag in between the frame and the spring (like Air Bag has) with seperate valves for left and right, that way when I get off camber I could put air in the downhill side to level the truck, or if I get high centered I could inflate both for more ground clearance. I think Air Bag gets around 10" of lift. I would set it up so that when the bag is empty the spring sits on a bumpstop, and the truck is at ride heigth so if a bag fails I could function normally. Any one see any problems with this? What air bags should I use? Anyone have any pics of a setup like this?
Thanks
