i wanted to get air ride on my xb ever since i got it,thought it would be sumthin diffrent.come to find out there is already alot of xb's out there with it! never owned a vehicle with air ride,so please can you guys suggest some good kits,and is there a big difference in tire wear? thanks.

 

I have had air ride on my box for over a year now. Not a single problem. I drive it everyday no leaks or bag replacements as of yet. As far as tire wear you willl have some more than a car w/ out but to tell you the truth I haven't worn a tire out yet and I do take my rims off for the winter to roll stock so.. I can't give you an exact life span scenario. I have a built air ride system that I pieced it together and installed it myself.. you could by the easy street complete kit but thge rear setup required cutting stuff that I didn't want to cut plus the rears bags have a tendency of acquiring abnormal bag wear even after a year.... I CAN GIVE YOU ALOT OF ANSWERS. And even Our Moderator Brian xb can also educate you. You just have to be patient.. If its what you want do it .... Otherwise you'll waste alot of money beating around the bush...

 

tea man im not in a rush at all i am going to alaska in august when I get back i was hopin to start lookin for a kit or some info to piece one together. I dnt really want to cut ne thing if possible.but i want to do it myself to save some money,im gona do alot of research first.

 

I was one of the first to put air on my box back in 04. I took it off later and have been on coilovers since. Air is fun but if you arent a little bit inclined to work on your car, I would get something else.

Moving this to xB suspension forum...
