Why dont you make a guide so others can do it? i dont understand why its a big secret and people dont share...


RE: front air ride struts - rd070707 - 27-05-2015

to be honest sam information on air ride is freely available, but how I have made my rear brackets was my own design that I would not want people to mimic and find that it is unreliable, im no engineer by any means. However I would happily talk somsone through the principle behind how it works as really its not that hard

If you are genuinely interested Pm me

Okay so just to help anyone along who may consider air ride, what all is required:



front struts
rear bags - £80-100
compressor - £150
2 electronic or paddle valves - £50
3 switches, wires and relay - £50?
air line- £30
fabrication of rear brackets - £10-??? depends if you can weld yourself


thats pretty much it for a simple 2 way set up
