what's the cost to bag a mid 80s Crown Vic or Caprice? Doesn't have to be fast or anything... just want a plush adjustable ride on 20s.

i got a question.

for a 94 accord 4dr.
how much would it cost for air ride.

what do u recommed bags or struts? and why?
also i was told that with air ride if not done properly i will go thru tires left right and centre how can i avoid this? i heard there is a leveler or something that i can put on in order for it to be balanced in all 4 corners with a flick of a switch.

i am looking for a setup that does side to side and front and back tilts. i dont need so outragous 3 wheel etcc unless it comes with it

also how do i stop an air ride from going tooo low and breaking my lip kit? can they be adjusted?

also in terms of cleanliness how clean can a setup look? i want it as factory as possible with the LEAST visible lines etc...

also how small of a tank can i run without comprimising air ride doing some tilts etc..

Team Rukus. PM Me for a price. It can vary between 2-3 grand for a kit. Depending on what you want.

I would recommend the air struts. They are fully adjustable. They have a **** at the bottom of the shock to fully adjust them to your liking. They ride smooth and are relaible.

With air ride, you can make your tires last forever. Once you install the struts get an alignment and set the pressure of the bags up so that your wheels are 100% within specs. That way when you drive you can raise the car to that certain pressure so your alingment is perfect. You have guages inside the car to show you the pressure of each bag.

The basic kit will come with 8 valves. To do front/back/side/side.

I doubt it would go low enuff to break your lip [type-r? mugen?] You should be ok for that.

Clean install? You need a tank and compressor and valves. You can make it look clean, just depends on how clean you want it? You can hide all your valves and tanks in a false floor, thers a couple differnt options. I would say run a 5 gallon tank minimum. Let me know if you have anymore questions.. I have some pics of some accord installs also. Let me know if you want to see them.

Thanks.Rob.

You can pull it out now for sure. The cylinders will only have problems in like negative 20 or negative 30... you should be good to go..


I have a 3.5" cylinder with a drop fork with chopped upper strut towers. never hit anything when laid out on the 13s..
