[maurici]

Hi

I need the pair of air lift 71 cadillac eldorado.
Anyone know the pn?
Where can I find to buy?

Those bags were not stock.  Firestone still I think has a line of bags so maybe look for a catalog from them?   So many cars have used a McPherson struts for so long there is not likely many car apps anymore.   Some of the smaller and mid size trucks and SUV's I think use coil springs so maybe you can find something that will fit there?

Factory system which was standard equipment on the Eldo was air shocks.  Last I checked they are still available from both Monroe and Gabriel and can be adapted to the original system if it still works or you can buy a manual fill kit.

This topic of the rear suspension/shocks/level control in the Eldorados from say 1967 thru 1977 at considerable length and detail.  Highly recommend a search of this topic and read that.  I would put it back to as close as original as you can reasonably manage.  Cadillac spent millions engineering this system and really there are not many improvements on these circa 1970 Cadillacs over what the factory provided that can be improved upon.
