i am getting ready to order my air ride valves for my air ride setup. i just want to get some peoples ideas on what would look better. do you think getting individual valves which i am not for sure i want to do 4 or 8 valves. i am looking at getting a manifold style valve so everything be in one area. where indididual is going to be some working fitting all under my xb.

I would run 6 or 8 vavles. The front struts really need to be done seperatly. Also I'd look at the SMC vavles on gravity works site. BTW I am not saying those are bad, but everyone I know uses SMC without issues, airlift vavles are pretty trouble free as well. I for one am not hot on the manifold style setup...since one failure means you may need a 300 dollar part, instead of a 30 dollar part.
