FLEX TESTING a Jeep Gladiator with ACCUAIR Air Suspension on the Rocks Plus Other Benefits

[@PinballRehab]

Thanks for all your accuair videos. I’m a disabled vet and at the age of 70 I’m finally giving in and lowering the difficulty of the trails I ride and looking for a more comfortable ride. I’m going from a JL Rubicon to a Bronco (IFS benefits) and am considering the accuair system. I greatly appreciate the info you are providing. As an aside, you have excellent off-road driving skills, unlike a lot of the KZbin personalities who use speed and over-built vehicles to make up for their lack of skill. The “kids” need a good example, and you sir are.

[@wayalife]

I am truly humbled that you would say as much and I do think a lift like this will serve you well. Thank you for your service.

[@themajesticmanic]

I don't think you could ask any more than that from airbags. Pretty impressive.

[@wayalife]

Coming from someone who wheels big Jeeps with coilovers, I have to say that I wasn't expecting a whole lot but once we were out there, I was pretty impressed with what I saw.

[@scottymac5174]

@@wayalife A whole lot more options if your Jeep is a somewhat Daily Driver...

[@mikepierson3097]

I’m blown away by that Accuair system. You guys put it through a good mix of easy to somewhat difficult obstacles and it handled it great. So awesome how you were able to simply raise the whole rig to clear that ledge! The flex was really impressive ad well, no way did I think you’d get that much articulation. I honestly don’t fully understand how it can achieve it. Thanks for showing your test sessions!

LOL - not gonna lie, this suspension system did perform way better than I had imagined. I was genuinely impressed.

[@jdc1997]

Great job editing to the both of you! It’s great that you actually tested it like you wheel you own Jeeps. Interested to see how those airbags hold up to constant flexing on the trail. Although the air system doesn’t flex and travel as well as a coil setup, for everyday driving and towing, the air system seems like it would be awesome.

[@wayalife]

Thank you and fortunately, we got the green light from ACCUAIR to "drive it like it was ours". As far as durability goes, ACCUAIR is so confident in their system, they will warranty it for 100k miles.

[@jdc1997]

I’ve seen your videos on how you really wheel… 😂 You are the real deal on R and D for any review. Others review cars and parts like it’s a virgin! You, on the other hand, tear’em up. 😂😂 Great job Eddie.

[@wayalife]

So glad to hear you enjoyed our video and found what this suspension can do to be impressive.

[@CraigSimons]

I like how these work per corner, very cool. Tire inflation is very cool too. This could be a nice upgrade for my RockLander build eventually. Shorter airbags integrated into a coilover would be a neat way to select ride height without making the spring too stiff. Airbags filled to max height tend to be very stiff and result in a pogo stick effect (like the Grand Cherokee TrailHawk) however these seem to still compress decently at taller ride heights. I bet you get better fuel economy on the highway If you lower the ride all the way down too.

[@wayalife]

Yup, when set to #1 which is 2" lower than the default height, you do see better fuel economy.

[@DownNDirty_OffRoad]

Definitely works better than I thought it ever would off-road. I shot video of a 6 door Jeep on bags in Sand Hollow Utah that was very impressive.. The ability to lift and lower is nice.

[@iPaowster]

Thanks for the video! Now I feel relieved since I already ordered and just waiting to install on a JLUR! 😅 Just for camping/overlanding mostly around Colorado; no extreme rock crawling.

[@wayalife]

Honestly, that is what I see this kit being best at. The fact that it can flex as well is just a perk.

[@stephenfogg5230]

3:30 MST. I am not that familiar with ACCUAIR but any air bag system, such as the one in my Land Rover, can leave you in big trouble if a bag blows out in the back country. I know from experience as one of mine failed at the top of Imogene Pass in Colorado.

[@wayalife]

ACCUAIR is owned by Arnott, a company that has been making air suspension systems for well over 30 years. They purposefully made their air pistons out of a thicker ply than what comes on ANY factory vehicle and are so confident in their durability, they will warranty them for 100k miles.

[@Donnut123]

OMG, after watching you do the thing with the sway bar disconnects, that was crazy! I just installed a pair of used JKS disconnects on my JK which were supposed to be "easy" and turns out you have to have it completely flat AND have someone jump up and down on the bumper... I guess I'm just not man enough... Love this air system.

Kinda curious on the limits of it for towing, load capacity, load capacity and towing, and of course max lift height for that long JT frame break over angle. Seen this lift on display in person at GSMJI in 2022. Really like it. Great video!

Boy that gladiator is in dire need of a Rubicon transfer case , like wow it needs it badly.. but that suspension works extremely well . I was amazed on how well it flexed ..

[@wayalife]

LOL - tell me about it! It just had no power on the really big stuff. Otherwise, I'd have to agree with you - I was pleasantly surprised at how well it did in the flex department. I really wasn't expecting it.

[@JeepAndThings]

Really suprising it was lacking power, with 8 speed and 2.73 to 1. Great video though! Now for my 4xe, no place to put that airtank.

[@wayalife]

Oh, there was power, just no torque.

[@fwschnaar3179]

Awesome System! And as always very nice to see Moby’s (Cindy) got your Back just in case! 👍

[@wayalife]

LOL - always good to have someone to rely on and yeah, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it did out on the rocks.

[@Dubya9W9]

Probably the best solution for those that want to overland and light Rock crawling. It did well ( obviously not as good as a full coilover kit with long arm Suspension ) if all you're going to do is Rock crawl idk why anyone would buy a Gladiator to just do that... Air-Bags hold up well ( only downfall is getting oil on them. ) Not sure of the quality of the Air Compressor but it probably wouldn't hurt to buy an extra one ( just in case ) It also would be nice if they could design some sort of a Puck to stick under the bag to raise the Vehicle if Failure should happen to one of the bags. The Best kit out there for Versatility, hands down!

[@wayalife]

I agree, this kit is probably best suited for your typical overlander who might dabble in some light rock crawling.

What size tires and offset is on the JT? Again, Awesome Video!!

Glad you liked the video. Not sure if it would work with your skids though or at least, as a bolt on kit.

[@1gx619]

It really does look badass! $7k though 😫😫😫 But living in Southern California and using my Gladiator as my daily driver maybe it would pay off on fuel economy savings by being able to lower it while driving on the freeway 😊

It's pricey for sure but still less than coilovers and in some ways, more functional. Their benefit really comes in how you use your Jeep.

[@wayalife]

Truly humbled that you would say as much and happy to hear you enjoy our videos 😎

[@jacobboughton506]

Very interesting, as a new sub I’ve got some ideas… While driving on an edge of a slope (as if going to flip) can you air up one side max and bottom out the opposite side to feel level inside just for kicks. Next when the front and rear opposite tires are free spinning or there about (stuck), add air to the compressed (grounded tires) to give traction back to the ones that has lost it. Being non rubicon think that would be an interesting test for many. Cant forget max payload and trailer tongue to test out the towing handling characteristics.

[@wayalife]

We'll try to showcase some of that in future videos.

[@HIRAMFLORES-l8i]

That was one of my quedtions, thank you for show us this video I think will work fine for us

[@wayalife]

Awesome! Glad we were able to show you what it can do.

[@pistoncount]

This looks like it flexs awesome!!!! Does it droop as good as a regular setup...3.5 Evo...Meatalcloak...or Clayton. Seems like for me at least it flexs more than I would need and the ability to raise and lower would be more valuable than an extra few inches of flex.

[@wayalife]

The amount of flex any suspension kit provides is always determined by the length of the shocks they are running.

[@Marionetax]

Awesome performance in airbags! But, honestly, Moby is just another level… what a beast! 💪🏻

[@wayalife]

LOL - well, there is a HUGE price difference between the two Jeeps. 😁

[@RogerJG21]

pretty impressive for sure. would love to put this on my Gladiator

[@GatorOverland]

@wayalife how does the draglink account for the different ride heights? I assume the steering wheel straight ahead would change at different heights. There is a sensor in the steering that will activate limp mode as a traction control tactic if it's senses that the steering is too many degrees turned after certain speeds are reached in the case that the vehicle is in a side slide.

[@wayalife]

As I mentioned in our previous video, all the suspension and steering components are set for the default ride height, setting #2. At setting #1, there isn’t enough of a change in geometry to affect steering and you can drive at all speed without issue. Riding on the bump stops or at maximum height, setting #3, you can only drive at speeds of 25 mph or under. In other words, below the threshold that would trigger the traction control system.

[@GatorOverland]

@@wayalife thanks for taking the time to respond… I have yet to see the other videos in the accuair series, but as expected, this one was pretty awesome. Thanks for clearing that up, and it definitely makes sense of the settings for the ride height speed limitations.. well done!🤝

[@BillyBennecke]

On LSD (limited slip deferential) I came down a trail, not too challenging in my Mojave, 4H, offroadplus on, traction control off, stability control off, and hitting whoops, switchbacks, and weathered ruts at 25mph plus- it's like Mr. Toads wild ride... hold on with two hands at all times

[@wayalife]

LOL - glad we could share this with you 😁

[@vinceh8468]

Very nice! What is that buzzing sound around 9:54? It seems to run for some time. Is it the air compressor? If so, why does the system need more air, is it the extreme articulation?

[@wayalife]

The Jeep you're looking at runs ARB air lockers. Unfortunately, the one in the rear ProRock 80 axle has a leak inside the differential. We've replaced it several times and it's just a defect in the design. It still works with the compressor on but it is annoying to all hell.

@@wayalife Thank you for replying back. Would it had made a difference in performance and the articulation if you would have had it in its highest setting when doing the more difficult crawls? Sorry for asking but this thing, intrigues me. I never thought I would subscribe to anyone, but you are the first person I ever subscribed to.

[@wayalife]

I don't think so. When you're at max setting, the ride is a bit too firm - bouncy even and that wouldn't help in articulated situations. Plus, I had one rear tire totally dropped into a hole and the other stuffed. If I had aired up the one side that was stuffed, it would have put me into the wall on the driver side.

[@John90XJ]

Interesting to see the system at work. What is or is supposed to keep the tires out of the fenders? What is acting as a compression bump stop?

[@wayalife]

Umm, bump stops are designed to prevent the over compression of your coils. As in, they keep your coils from squishing down to the point where they do not return back to their original height. The fact that they 'can' also prevent fender rub is a perk. This kit has bump stops but still allows for a ton of stuff. That is why you are seeing rubbing. On my other Jeeps with coilovers, the fix is to TRIM THE FENDERS to allow for more rub free stuff 😎

[@John90XJ]

@@wayalife Looking at the perk side of the bump stop, I was curious if Accuair had a way to prevent over-compression into the fender and how they accomplish it. Thanks for the reply.

[@wayalife]

They do not and I personally wouldn't recommend it. Doing so would be like purposefully limiting the amount of travel your suspension has - the only you just paid all that money to get and just to prevent some fender rub. Installing a set of Rubicon fenders would fix the problem too.

[@jimfarmer7193]

Nice video But it seemed to me like for the most part (except the time you stopped to raise it) that you were in the lowest setting of the accuair system while wheeling. How would it do if you took the entire ride at the highest position ?? Again, great video . . .

[@wayalife]

Actually, we were running most of the trail in the default setting #2. Going to #3 would offer too harsh of a ride. Fine for crawling but not ideal for moving fast across the desert.

[@stealtheli]

@@wayalife Not AccuAir’s issues. Land Rover had some between leaks in their struts, which manifests itself in the suspension sagging and compressors being overworked to compensate if the leaks aren’t addressed. And that warranty from AccuAair says to me they stand behind their product.

You guys must have another place in Florida. Couldn't help but notice the out-of-place Florida tag. 😁

[@wayalife]

LOL - this Jeep belongs to ACCUAIR and they're located in Florida. They just asked us to take it around the block and share what we thought about their air suspension system 😎

[@Jmonty580]

If I already have a lift kit and an air compressor, i wonder if i could just get the air springs and electronics... Would be tempting and save a few bucks.

[@wayalife]

Unfortunately, you would not be able to. You would also need the control arms ACCUAIR makes being that they have sensors on them that help determine ride height. Also, your shocks would need to be the same length extended and compressed.

What trail was this? Looks amazing.

[@CallaFab]

Very cool!! What are the negatives to running this kit outside of the price and possible air leaks?

[@wayalife]

Cost is definitely the biggest negative but if you watch all the other videos that we've made testing this kit, I think you will find there aren't too many others.

That's an impressive amount of flex for anything, let alone air bags. Whoever designed that setup knew what they were doing. My only concern would be if the system springs a leak while on the trail and the gladiator ends up on its lowest setting. Still, I love unique builds and this is awesome. I also love that you give love to the sports - this ride, and Pippie. Do you still have pippie? Regardless, happy trails!

[@wayalife]

ACCUAIR is so confident in the durability of their suspension system that they will warranty it for 100k miles. As far as Pippi goes, yes, we still have her and hope to put out new videos featuring her soon. :)

@@wayalife glad to see a company standing behind it's brand! And happy to see new videos with Pippi!

Great video, thanks!

@@wayalife they mention diesel support in the future at all?

[@Rockyc]

I have it on my Deisel jl and it works great. Unfortunately it can’t be sold as a direct bolt on kit with no cutting involved. The inner bump stops on a Deisel are longer as well as the 392 or 4xe. So there is some cutting involved. That’s why they don’t offer it for the Deisel , 392, or 4xe yet. According to AccuAir mine is the only Deisel that they are aware of that has this kit, and they (AccuAir) had to do some engineering to make it work correctly. I would like to guess that in the future it will be available. As to when I don’t know.

[@thaddeuslove6313]

@@Rockyc I'd love to chat more to hear what all you had to do to make it work for your diesel

@@thaddeuslove6313 They fabricated a skid plat to hold the air compressor and valve body under the jeep in the rear. Now I’m in a different situation due to me having the 2021 setup, that came with dual air tanks. So my tanks are mounted on each role bar on the angle in the back of the jeep. Due to the bump stops being longer, the bump stop housings had to be cut down some to get a correct fit for the air bag. Other than that, that’s about it. I had a lot of problems out of the 2021 setup due to install issues, and AccuAir was a great company to work with. They really took great care of me.
