Default Rear Suspension Bladders

Hello,

I have a 2000 Discover II that has the 7 passenger seats and rear adjustable suspension.
2 years ago i replaced the air bladders that adjusted the suspension heights due to them malfunctioning ( sometime both sides not even, or often just not inflating the rear up )

Anyways, it has started to doit again, this time the rear suspension just won't go up anymore, so I am driving with both rear sides really lowered and car very bouncy.

My question:
1.) Is it possible to just disable the two rear bladder air bags so as to make it simmilar to a standard Disco without the adjustable leveing suspension?? If Yes, what do i have to purchase and tell my mechanic. Thanks for allowing me to pick your brains.

it could be a simple repair, but i lot of people that dont want to be bother finding the problem simlpy in stall coils. You can find convertion at atlantic british and just about any other supplier.
i should warn you if you thin k it bounces now wait until you put coils in it

If you want to fix it, send me your number and I'll call and walk you thru it. If thought you want to swap to coils, realize the ride will be different and you will basicly have to do a full lift kit to keep the truck level when done.
