Chassis Tech

Any opinions on Chassis Tech for air ride kits? I have 3 sqare bodies and want to start bagging them. I know nothing about this type of installation but was looking at some of the Street Scraper kits because they look like a bolt on setup for the most part. Not quite sure about the front. Any other opinions for DIYers? Thanks

Since I have been playing with trucks 33 years now I have never heard anything good about them and I mean nothing. JS

I agree.
They are now airbagit.com.
Was Chassis Tech.
AIM before that.

Junk copies of everyone elses work.
Google any of these names.
You get what you pay for,... but even less with these guys.
RUN.

Re: Chassis Tech

What do you all suggest? Is it unreasonable to think I could get a complete kit for 2500 installed or a kit easy enough for a DIYer with little airbag knowledge and no welding skills? I do work at the service desk of a GM dealership so I have access to tools and a lift.

Re: Chassis Tech

Yeah stay far away from airbagit,chassis tech or whatever there name is now.The question is do you want the trucks low or do you want it to lay frame?If you just want it lowered good http://www.ridetech.com/store/ has some nice kits.And you can buy all the air management stuff from vendors on here cheap and some even are vendors for ride tech on here.If you want to lay frame porterbuilt is the best but hes not the cheapest but well worth the money.
