Air Lift Company offers a complete setup under their Easy Street line. It can be purchased thru numerous vendors as well at perhaps better prices than this direct link:

ISSUES: Their current front air struts have a tendency to rattle especially when cold. The 3/8" lines supplied will make for fairly fast actuation requiring care in use. As in any air ride system that does not precisely monitor actual suspension height, height in use must be closely monitored visually or by physical measuring in order to truely be at the height where you have had the car aligned. Suspension height at a given pressure can vary significantly based on outside air temperature. This means that 80PSI one day may be fine, but the next day (hotter) you may only need 70PSI to get the same height, or the following day (colder) you may need 100PSI. Air Ride Technologies sells a control system that uses mechanical sensors to measure suspension height for you and can set the suspension to the exact height automatically when prompted, it is called Level Pro and it is not cheap. I have this system and it repeats alignment height every time within +- 1/8 inch at the push of a button. Link:

Nothing wrong with a more basic pressure only based system as long as you are willing to do the constant measuring and monitoring to ensure good wheel alignment and handling characteristics...I however am lazy so I spent the $$$$ to let electronics do that for me.
