The 2 tag axle bags are different fron the other 8.  They are the GV tag bags and about 4x more expensive than the others.

FTBAG AIR SPRING (FORETRAVEL CHASSIS BAG) 8.00 $162.30 $129.84 $1,168.56
3N054624 REPLACE ALL 10 AIRBAGS $1,712.00 0241 Retail $171.20 $1,540.80

I doubt that the 03 air bags for the tag are the same as for a 99. The 03 has a lifting tag axle and the 99 does not.

Correct.  This post by Rudy mentions all air bags for a 2001 are the same p/n.  Potentially same situation for a '99.

New to Motorhomes - choose a 1999 u320?

Keith Risch installed these bags on my 03 u320 last year. He supplied 8 of these bags for the coach, but on the lifting tag I had to get the 4 bags from Foretravel. I don't remember right off hand what I paid for the bags or the labor but I guarantee you it was cheaper than MOT or FOT.  The tag bags were A LOT more expensive than the 8 coach bags...

As noted upthread, the tag bags for a 2003 are definitely not going to work on a 1999 tag due to it being a different mechanism.

Some info on the wiki as well: Air Bag / Air Springs but nothing specific for the non-lifting tag bags.  I'll update that with any new information posted here.
