Air bags

Anybody ever heard of taking the spring pack down to just one leaf and using air bags for ride and level control?

I drove a road tractor converted to a dump truck that had just a single leaf. (don't remember what that was called)

I'm just trying to figure a cheaper way to make Big Red ride smoother.

I have air bags on the front of my truck they have saved my front tires IMO but to get the results you want like a rig you would need levelers and an air compressor kinda like my wife's expedition
