Air shocks are OK for increasing load capacity, but they're just not the ideal solution. All El Caminos came with Delco Air Shocks as OEM equipment, as the spring rates in a Camino are actually lighter than a typical G coupe or sedan. I replaced mine with Gabriel Hi-Jackers and they've been fine for 10 years or so of light use. Most of the time they have 20-25 psi, with an occasional shot to 80-120 psi to carry a load. Used in moderation, I've never had a problem with the mounting points, except for one time on an old Malibu when I got really stupid. However, I do agree with Mike. Forcing a shock to be a load-carrying component in addition to its primary task of suspension movement dampening will never give optimum performance. Ride and cornering with air shocks can never compare with a good premium gas shock. If you have the funds to do it right the first time, definitely go for the bags and a premium gas shock. It's one of those things on my to-do list.
