Air Suspension
Hey ya'll...
Im just wondering if there is anyone here that has air suspension on their truck. If you do what company did you get your kit from?
By the end of this summer I will have my truck laying frame and im thinking of going to Air Ride Tech. for my system.

I have an air system that I got from air ride tech. Its the 4 link system and it works well. Your truck will always sit lower after you get it, or ride like crap at factory height. At least mine does but it dosent bother me cause it looks way better a couple inches lower. If you have to much pressure than it will ride very stiff. Mine rides well when at lower pressure

If you want to lay frame you might consider a professional install. Your gonna spend around $3000.00. Its not an easy install by any means if you havent done one before. Check out www.ekstensive.com they do some of the best work around. they also manufacture custom kits for your truck c-notches, porkchops, 4-links ect.

I say stay away from air ride tech, there stuff is ok if u want to only get low and move up and down slow.
if u want to lay frame on 22s your looking at a little over $4000 in parts only, its cheaper if u lay on 20s.
in the front use cups and slam rs62s, it the rear use a Kp components 6 link with rs72 bags, then u need all the air management stuff. also allot of relocating and cutting needs to be done.
For parts suicidedoors.com has some of the best prices around.

i have the front bagged currently on mine and plan to have the back done in a few months. IMO, setting up a bag system is not hard, it is just very time consuming. if you have the patience and the time, you dont need a professional install, unless you are well off and 1000 extra dollars for an install is no issue. If your truck is a daily driver, i would highly recommend the KP 6 link. Many of my friends have had the 6 link for a few years and have had NO problems what so ever. two great dealers i would recommend would be suicidedoors.com and innovativeairsuspension.com. that is where all of my friends as well as I have ordered from and have been recommended by people on many of the forums I am on. they are great to deal with. i am running airlift 2b7 bags on my front( and plan to run the same on the rear) with GC 3/8" valves
i need lowering control arms and smaller tires ugh
