You only have about three choices for upgrading to air.

1-ACS Aftermarket http://superide1.com/brochures.html
2- Kelderman Aftermarket
3- Stock International

Stock international is going to be expensive, or more expensive I should say. I think most GS owners have gone with the ACS system. There is a long string on this site about air ride.

In regards to the engine, I recommend you install a Bullet Proof Diesel oil cooler. A Bullet Proof Diesel EGR Cooler. And do the HPOP Connector Fitting Upgrade. Without the oil cooler I feel you may be risking turbo, HPOP, injector and EGR Cooler failure. As all of these failures can be caused by the stock oil to water cooler becoming plugged on the water side of the cooler. However the VT365 did not have near as many turbo, HPOP, injector, and EGR failures as the Ford 6.0 so take my advice as just a "To be safe" recommendation. However I can tell you my engine oil stays at approx. 150 deg vs. 200 plus deg with the stock cooler. That makes it worth the time and effort to me.
