I bought a ranger that had some fire stone airbags on it: http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi-bin/suscon/2172F.html

I seem to have a leak in one (I think it happened because I hauled a bunch of dirt and didn't check it had air) Any one know if it is possible to replace just one of the bags (if so where to get) or if it is possible to patch or repair the bag?

I seriously doubt if you can repair them. I use Air Lift airbags and I have replaced just the bags before. I get them from 4 Wheel Parts. I don't know if they can order Firestone bags. Do an on-line search on Firestone bags.

Are you sure its the bag itself? Will they hold any air? If they do i would check all your connections, and the hose anywere it would rub on something that would wear it. I experienced a leaky bag on my 3/4 ton and i found it to be the fill vavle, it was cheap like 5 bucks at the local trailer supply store. I aired them up to the max setting and sprayed all the areas i thought could have been a problem with a mix of soapy water.
