    installed air ride and nothing but f*****g problems

    so i put air ride on my wagon

    had a leak on the back of one of the tanks, fixed it

    had a leak on on of the leader hoses, waiting on a new one

    fitting on right rear wheel broke when driving with it laid out, waiting on new one

    and today a g****m bag broke on the right front cuz it rubbed on the upper control arm bolt WTF

    i followed the instructions to the letter and it says absolutely nothing about grinding those stupid bolts down

    this is bs, i spent a ton of cash on this shit and i really dont feel like buying another set of bags

    i dont even feel like going to the meet now

    sorry but i had to vent

    Go static, go to the meet, come home and then bag it again.



    Don't punish the meet, your bro's want to see you hahaha

        airbags look tight when your done with them, take your time, and then you need a set of work eurolines. boom done.

          bags dont really work on our cars because of that very fact,should have went with direct bolt on air rods(cylinders) kit,plus when I do bags on my friends trucks,I tell them go to a tractor trailor repair shop and get all air fittings and lines for trailors,they are better than ones that come with kits,never had any issues with ones I helped with on trucks.

                Air is high maintenance, so I don't know why you would want it on your daily. My friend had his rim rubbing on one of his bags at his driving height and it blew about 10 ft away from his driveway.

                      Yea you see air big kits for our cars for sale on craigslist all the time in SC because of that very fact. But that shit is sick once you get it going good though.

                        When I had air ride in my 93, I never had problems. I had cylinders on all corners, and it rode like stock, and handled like I was in a sports car. I used DOT Brake line for trucks (over 1000PSI capable, and compression fittings on everything...

                            ,I thats what I'm talking about,I ridden in many with cylinders they ride fine,I'm still trying to get them for mine.And dot line and fittings are the only way to go like I mentioned earlier
