*****AIR RIDE*****?

So I really miss the air ride I had on my truck that laid frame. What are your thoughts on air ride for the camaro. This is my first sports car so just wondering if it would be a good idea or not. Will I loose a lot of the handeling that I have now? What's a good kit for the Camaro?

thanks

I think it is a great idea, but I may be a little bias Our kit was designed to enhance ride quality and handling performance so you will not dishonor your muscle car. Let me know if you have any questions!!

The complete kit comes with all the lines, fittings, tank and compressor you need. Or if you want to put together your own kit you can buy the suspension components separately.

AirLift will be AWESOME on your Camaro. Wish I'd thought about it before I did my lowering kit. Bag em and tag em bro! Good luck.

Install is pretty straight forward. If you can install suspension parts you can install our air suspension. Check out the install thread SOPMOD put together http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...ghlight=sopmod

Let me know if you have any questions

I had the air ride system from airlift, sorry to say, but I sold it. I didn't really like it. The one pump takes forever to fill the tank, the auto pilot feature never went back to my orginal setting. The pressure would be like example..... FL 45psi, FR 38, RL 98, RR 107.. I had this set for the front to be 42psi and rear to be 105psi. I always had to adjust it manually. It was more of a PITA then I thought.

Just my personal experience. I wouldnt buy it again, since then I went with the pedders supercar coil overs. I'm very happy with them.
