RE: Sumo Springs to replace air bags

They usually leak at fittings, but the problem is rarely the fittings. They almost alway leak because the installer used side-cutters to cut the tubing, when a sharp straight-blade is required, so that the tube doesn't crush when it's being cut. I suspect slightly trimming the tubing at the fittings will resolve the leaks. That said... I really like my Sumos. But I retained my airbags. The Sumos on the rear of the E350/450 replace the factory bump stop, so you can retain outboard airbags even with the Sumos installed. I have the black ones, but if I didn't also have airbags, I'd need the stiffer ones.

RE: Can Tow providers mount new tire to wheel ?

Thinking of carrying the spare primarily for long trip to Alaska.... I think your biggest problem will be being able to call anybody in the first place. Even the majority of eastern Oregon, or even the Coast Range, doesn't have cell service. The abandonment of 1x and 3G spectrums will make coverage far worse too, since newer cellular spectrums have less range. FWIW - you can probably pick up a new take-off wheel and tires for cheap from QuadVan in Portland, since most 4x4 conversion end up with aftermarket wheels.
