I installed the Gabriel 49614’s in the front. I don’t have any sway/lean issues and the ride quality is very good. The only annoying thing is I have to pump them up every 3-5 days which is why I’m now considering the onboard air compressor.
@Mrbig do you have one compressor supplying air to the front and back? If so, are all the shocks hooked up to the same line running the same pressure or is there some kind of switching circuit?

@Warren If you are losing air every 3 to 5 days then you may have an air leak somewhere. Check your connections with soapy water.
With that said I purchased the AIR LIFT 25804 Air Shock Controller Kit ( Amazon.com: AIR LIFT 25804 Air Shock Controller Kit : Automotive. There are other kits available. I just liked the reviews and the size of the compressor.
Currently I’m running only front air. But I have the dual controller and another pair of air shocks for the back. If you go front and rear, you can use the same kit and change the controller to a dual controller, so you can pump the front and back to different pressures, depending on the load. There are a few available at different price points.
Okay I’ll check for leaks. Good to know about the dual controller. I would like to convert my rear to air too but was hesitant after having to pump up the front to often. I’m very impressed with the ride quality so hopefully I can resolve this.
Inwo, Need two front coil over shocks for a think two seater. Do these work well for my Think. If not I’ll try the Gabriel’s.
