[@SI0AX]

@@grutzz3359 Yeah, drifting is too harsh IMO. Auto Cross and maybe Circuit Racing is as far as I would go with Air Suspension.

[@blkeclipsel2400]

He's right. It's not just for slamming your vehicle. It is just as comfortable ( if not more) than stock. I can't believe more people don't go with airlift suspension. The diversity and convenience are amazing. I've daily driven my car for 2 winters and one summer with no air leaks and no issues. The only difference I've noticed is my ride height PSI (75) is higher in cold weather (86) However one thing I should mention. With adjustable suspension, you will want to get a lifetime alignment package if available locally. I get mine done approximately every 4 months for free.

[@platinumclothing1253]

Comfortable ? I have a Svt lightning full airbag system and that thing waves and bounces like crazy

[@blkeclipsel2400]

@Platinum Clothing A Ford Svt lightning truck ? Perhaps I should've mentioned that im merely providing a testimonial of my own personal experience with Airlift performance series. I can't speak for all air suspension brands or series and certainly not for 20 year old trucks. I'm speaking on what I personally own. A 2SS Camaro on 3H management and performance series bags. Do you have Airlift ? Does airlift even make a direct bolt on kit for your vehicle ? More specifically, are you driving on an airlift kit purposefully manufactured for your year, make, and model ? Or did you have to fabricate your truck for their universal kit ? Who installed it ? Are you on sleeved bags or double bellow ? Does your management allow you to change settings and store presets? Can you dial in your damping and adjust the camber ? Do you have height sensors? Perhaps it's these variables that allow me to experience a more comfortable ride in my sports car than you in your truck. Aside from factoring in the discrepancies of our vehicle size, weight, and age.

[@Lineofdefeat]

You convinced me to get air. Thank you.

[@TogaTig]

@tedk4605 how is the air suspension holding up?

[@82toyotalandcruiser]

Air bag kits are great in every way and yes if they are done right, they can last a life time, however compressing air cause moisture, moisture in the lines and valve can freeze in the winter. That's where problem can come from. So if you live in winter environments, one needs some kinda drier or have pure alcohol in the lines, like what big rigs need to have in there air lines

[@tylerdoop]

I didn’t even think about this. Thanks so much for the tip. I was contemplating air ride for my car but I don’t think it’s a good idea because of this

[@blkeclipsel2400]

I don't know. I'm in Oklahoma and we get harsh winters here. My airlift suspension was just fine in 9-degree weather. I didn't put anything in my lines. However, I do keep my tank empty of any moisture. I installed an electric drain kit. So I wouldn't have to keep climbing over my back seats to purge water from my tank. The drain kit comes with an electronic release valve and hose that feeds through my trunk grommet that leads outside the vehicle. I simply press a button I installed under my dashboard to purge the water. I also installed a water trap/filter as an extra precaution. However, there's never any water in there when I go to drain it. I went this route because airlift support advised against putting any brake antifreeze or chemicals in the lines if my airlift manifold or water trap is inside the vehicle as the fumes can be dangerous. Also, a few guys in an airlift forum said injecting fluid in your lines can cause issues with the manifold like gunk build-up. The only difference I've noticed in cold weather is that my compressors take a little longer to fill my tank and my psi levels for my ride height are higher than in the summer.

[@blkeclipsel2400]

Something else I should mention. My hoses are all ran inside of my vehicle. Under my carpet and above dynamat. That could play a significant role as to why I don't experience frozen lines aside from conveniently keeping my system dry.

[@roolsinx]

I have Airlift in Canada. I have a water filter, I try to purge my tank once a week, and yet my manifold always gets a cracked seal once per winter season. The bellows are fine, my lines haven't froze, just issues with my manifold. Luckily, Airlift offers lifetime warranty on the manifold.

[@espada9973]

I have watched a ton of videos about air ride before doing it and I was concerned about weather, ride quality, maintenance and tried to be as careful as possible with it when I got it. I gotta say my drive and handling quality went completely trash with it: it’s stiff and bouncy, I feel every single bump on the road and god forbid if it’s a little stronger of a bump… I inevitably had to start dodging every single road imperfection with it. It’s been a month and it’s winter in Italy, still didnt have any problems with leaks, line cracking, freezing or anything going bad, the only real issue is how bad of driving quality it is. I have to make things clear though, I’m driving a french car which literally doesnt have a single air strut manufacturer making specific struts for it, so struts were taken from a Golf IV, and it’s an european brand (TATechnix); I wonder how would the ride quality change with airlift struts. With that being said I will be lifting my car for maintenance next week and swapping out the bags for some bigger ones for more lift, hopefully that can help a little.

[@Brandonr757sGaming]

Did you find shocks with adjustable dampening? That's a massive factor. Additionally, have you tried various pressures in the bags to see how it affects ride? It does take some dialing in.

[@feraldart]

I don't think I would try to hammer the comparison of a ~4500 add on system to what you'd find on a semi or ambulance. Those are purpose built for longevity and built to spec from the start and most likely cost a lot more to service or replace. And also... what DO you do if it fails and leaves you pancaked on the side of the road? How do people get them home or to the shop if it won't go on a rollback?

[@samprowell8946]

Old comment but I had air on my gti and the way I had it set up was if the tank or lines had a leak the bags held pressure as long as they were up when the leak started you’re good. If you’re aired out and the leak happens yours kinda fucked

Not saying that an air ride suspension cant keep up, just that it is unnecessary if you are not planning on "slamming" your ride to the ground. & coil overs are more reliable long term.

So when you set it up you have a parking height(low) and a driving height(higher)…can you drive it like in the middle of those heights? I wanna get air suspension when I get a ls400 so I wanna know some

You have to gauge it out and see how it rides for ya, depending on your wheel set too. All varies on the car! -Edgar

I really don’t understand why people have static cars. What about large puddles of water when it rains...

[@Rob-iy1wu]

U go around it. u should never be driving through puddles don’t matter how small it is

I would get coil overs but my driveway is so steep that I won’t be able to get on it without being fully aired up
