it sounds like you are gonna use cylinders of some type so ill just throw you an idea that i had run a line from the valves that tees off at a regular bag (or use a dual port) and make it so the bag is static that way when the vehicle hits a bump the air is forced into the bag and the bellows will give a little softening the the bump.

the way i was gonna do it for my honda is i was gonna canti the bag but on the ohter end i was gonna use fully adjustable coil overs so when i hit a bump the air from the cyclinder will fill the bag which would then push on the the coil over gving you the ride of the coil over and not just a regular bag. but i just copy righted that shit for 20 dollars ill let u use it jeff but only you

Ekstensive can build ya some.. I seen some tanks they built for a stock floored chevy so I know they could build what your lookin for. they were about the right diameter..

assuming you are talking about those small tanks people use to give an air cylinder alot more volume to soften the ride, my first suggestion would be buy some small air tanks, or a tank thats made to be an "air expansion tank", or if you wanted to fabricate one, buy some sch 40 pipe of whatever size you wanted the tanks to be, and cap it off, then buy weld in bungs with npt threads and put them where you want....
