Read the thread about air suspension in the tech section. DO NOT USE 4 VALVES! it will cause alot of body roll. Do it right, use 8 valves. 4 fill, 4 dump. I would also get a 5 gallon tank instead of three. On my car if I raise and lower the rear 3 times teh compressor kicks on. I have a 5 gallon tank.

Default $$$600$$$ ???DUDE???

Thats the most rediculous price I've heard of yet. I've got baggs in my sights and the cheepest I've got quoted is 3,400. Thats with two 3 gallow tanks two small compressors, 3/4 inch lines and yes 8 valves with 10 switches. Whats this place called you got that quote from? I'll check'em out for sure. Maybe I can get what I want for cheaper thier.

a good bag setup should cost around 1400 (thats what you can get eai and easystreet for) You don't always want the cheapest thing you can get. check what kinda valves they use, and what compressor. you what 8 valves, and you mine as well get 10 switches cause its not much more, get atleast 3/8 bags and 1/2 inch lines

[quote="BrianxB"]DO NOT USE 4 VALVES! it will cause alot of body roll. Do it right, use 8 valves. 4 fill, 4 dump. quote]
There's nothing wrong with using 4 valves. I hae a front/back set up with 4 valves and i have NO problems what-so-ever with body roll. I even have my front sway bar removed. I've been running this set up since sept. last year with zero issues, except for a few leaky connectors. I think Spider13's problems are with quality of product. I have airbaggit.com front strut bags and 2500# firestones in the back on custom mounts with a VIAIR450 compressor with a 5 gal. tank. I highly reccomend using as big a tank as you can. If you have any questions, feel free to IM me on AIM or PM me, i'll be glad to help if ican. Oh yea, almost forgot, you get what you pay for. I have about 1500 in my set-up and it's all quality stuff. 600 won't even buy the fronts that i'm running, so use your best judgement when making a purchase. Cheap now usually means trouble down the road.

k4kas, looks nice. Is you compressor and tanks mounted in the trunk or underneat the rear? Could we get a pic of the set up? My lava should have the same stance in a month or two. Looks real good man.

you'd have to bring your setup down here to autofashion so we can give you an estimate and see what extra parts if any would be needed. we normally sell the air runner setup which is designed for comfort.
