Re: Finally Started the Air Ride Install

update: The car has been sitting for about 1 month now...still haven't been able to test drive it because of snow. The front passenger side bag is leaking down though. Not sure if it's leaking down at the valve...at the bag...or wherever. So...it's time to get the soapy water out. Hopefully, the wheels will be here in a few weeks or so....just hoping everything fits

Re: Finally Started the Air Ride Install

ok...took the car out for a test drive...and it rides really well. It's weird how the 18's up front look so small when it's slammed.

Re: Finally Started the Air Ride Install

Any ball park figures as to how much all the Air Ride components weigh?

they're not that bad i'd put all of it at maybe 50 pounds total, teh way i figure i didnt gain or loose much on mine since i ditched the jack and spare and mounted everything in there....the valve bodies are aluminum, the tank doesnt weigh much and the comp isnt even all that bad, you can get the aluminum comps that i'm sure are lighter, i'd put the bags in at lighter than the springs....well worth it for the adjustibility adn ride quality

I forgot to ask you what I originally wanted to ask you but got caught up in your build pics, anyway, How does it RIDE, and how does it HANDLE, with that ride tech kit on it? I have been contemplating doing that kit for more than a year now!! Any advice as well?
