There was 12 coaches in '98 (really 2 of these were '97 builds this was the first group) that had tag axle. These were in 320 trim only and were 42' coaches.

Paul and Pixie now have an 07 Nimbus with the tag axle. I replaced the tag axle air bags on our 03, but don't remember the part number. I did that 10 years ago.

The tag airbags for a 03 320 are the same as a Grand Villa (MOT 23FTB AIR BAG TAG AXLE UPPER 03 GRAND VILLA 2.00 $493.32 $98.66 $887.98). Pricey and 3x the cost of the other 8 bags.
