Now on the front the problem would be ever worse with all the steering hardware criss-crossing.
However this is reallly an upgrade I would like to see somebody achieve.

For air shocks, yes. But air bags can replace leaf, coil and coil-over type suspensions. Air shocks are designed to bolster existing spring systems while bags replace the springs entirely.
