Rear air bag install, Front air bag strut build on a e30.

so then did you still run a shock in the rear? or is it not needed?

Im on ground control coils with chopped housings.

Yes, as soon as I hit the ground it was under 5psi. so I guess pretty much zero.

Thanks for the info man.






Why no air anymore????

[camberwears]

what about your oil pan would it ever hit the ground when you slamed it?

I was always intrigued with the idea of airride. I remember HorsepowerTV installing bags on a 4th gen Camaro and tuning it for handling. I'm guessing these are more for that stanced out look?

these kits could be used for either.

So thats full lift? I may have to cut a bit higher than you, not trying to rattle my teeth out when i have to scoop up the grandparents or something. When aired out, were you at 0psi, or did it lay out before the bags were fully empty?

And im glad you addressed the handling woes that so many anti-air people have flooded the internet with.

BTW, what are you rocking now if you sold this setup?

[White325is]

Better than my ground control coil setup. Alot better. :/

[Cletonius]

How did it handle?

Mike, you have any pictures of the lift? (when you had it welded all the way down like that)

[White325is]

I welded the tube supplied with the kit to the strut housing. just like the bc coil setup. Then you weld the shock to that tube. If you want low like my vert. You need to cut the tube off the strut housing flush at the bottom and pretty much the shock will sit flat right on that once everything is welded up.

[Killacortes]

Let me get this right you weld your shock/strut to the tube?

Very cool. Nice write up and detailed pics. I'd love to do this someday. So much on the list before that though...

[Zasz]

Pretty awesome.

Thanks for this. I was always curios how these systems were installed.
