Ive always thought it looked ricey, but when you think about it, it would be nice to adjust the car when going over bumps and stuff.

I think thats cools, it reminds me of the dropped to the weeds low riders. I'm not sure how improved the handling would be with air bags but definitely be worth looking into. Let us know what you decide

MM&FF and one other group did tests/runs with air ride cars...they do well....especially when one does air ride to old 60s 70s camaros and stangs. i thought about it...but i think im going with coilovers.

I have a 12v.hydraulic system available that fits both threaded and non- threaded 2" body coilover shocks. I have them installed on my GT40.
The cyl. that mounts between the spring and adjuster is available with 1" or 2-1/2" travel. The hyd pump is about the size of a wiper motor & the system operates with a momentary rocker switch to raise and lower. Let me know and I will send price & pictures.

I believe that for some people this system can be quite practical.

i like their setup but like what was already said, they are expensive and i wouldnt go with that exact system. they have another front system that uses a air strut that is alot cleaner, easier to install, and can be used with tubular kmembers. for my money tho i will go with bliestien (sp)

Sorry for not responding sooner.
This system is not for those who want to run down the road on 3 wheels or set the chassis on the ground.This system works well on cars such as GT4's, Pantera's, GTM's, Ultima's, Vette's, Cobra's, or anything that needs a help getting up a driveway or over a speed bump.This system will only fit 2" body shocks, if there is enough demand I will do some for 2-1/2" body struts. I have looked at other systems and like you found them to be expensive and not readily available. This is a very compact system. Most of the cars I have mentioned only need them on the front because the overhang , splitters, or chin spoilers. The system sells for $1,668.00 with choice two 7/8" or 2-1/2" travel rams and includes switch, wiring, and hyd. lines Add $467.98 for four rams. |

In the handling side, will they affect drivebility or are they just for show and crusing?
