nice...keep up the work work....air ride looks great, make me want to get them too.
Thanks a bunch man, yeah im lovin it so far.. if anyone considers bagging theirs just pm w/ questions.. ill try and be as helpful as possible.
how hard was it?? everything my stepdad owns has been air bagged and i know it rides quite smooth....what size bags did you put in there? and how low can you drop it? did you have to cut anything to get them to fit?

Installation wasnt that big of a deal.. woulda been much more simple if they woulda pre-cut the flat in the center bolt of the struts. My dad pulled off my stock struts to see like a 3" flat machined into the center bolt that goes thru the hat, and had to dremel the flat spot into every strut for them to go on. Other than that.. and some damage upon shipping.. was pretty much a breeze. Kit came from airbagit.com
i had coilovers on it before i got the bag struts on.. and the ride is 100% better if im riding at 40psi all the way around. So far im very pleased.. just havin problems findin the right switches i wanna mount in the change holder ^^.

its actually a full Fbss air bag strut kit.. lifetime warrenty on the bags and 1 year warrenty on lines and wiring for 30 extra bucks. grand total after buyings a few odds and ends to get the kit fit on right... was like 2,100 or so.

bags are expensive. Thats good that you put an adjustable suspension on your celi.... there's not alot of them out there. How low does yours sit??

about 5" on the side.. but i dont have nuff cash for the bodykit rite now .. with a nice kit it should sit on the ground.. but im content for now

too ghetto for my taste. i guess around my area, all the old boxy cars with custom paint and 30" rims have those, so i associate those as ghetto but they definitely look like fun! enjoy em and post some vids if you can. id like to see them in action.
>
i have cell phone vids but i dunno if they are good enuff quality to get on youtube or anywhere.. but as soon as i find a way too ill put em up. Yeah this is totally diff. from the ghetto ones your talkin about.. its a nice gentle drop with a fairly quick rise.. more import-lookin than the huge cadillacs on 24"s and ****.. i think thats just dumb.. lol but yeh. ill get back to you guys with some vids asap.

bad idea.. it kept cracking my bodykit when I would lay it on the ground.. I actually added shims to the top of the bag to help raise it up so my kit wouldn't hit the ground.. but if I ever parked on an uneven spot it would just crack it again

what if you welded or bolted something below the chasis on the frame etc. so that when it sits on the ground the weight is on those instead of the kit? sounds easy enough to do to protect the bodywork etc.

that does sound like a good idea.. but i really dont have the money for the kit and when i finally get that kind of money ill prolly just use it on the dent in the back right fender. Lol. But the project is still goin good.. car rides like a dream and my dad just finished fabbing a plate that fits over the change compartment with 6 switches.. F.B.S.S dual front and dual rear. Ill post pics asap.
