Best Air Bags?
If you were to replace your 4 coils with 4 bags and shorter shocks, with what brand of air bags would you go with?
Cheers

I'm hoping to have mine by the end of the month. I'm getting 4 Air Lift Extreme Generation II bags. They handle higher pressures, have a greater load capacity, compress shorter, have a longer stroke, and are generally considered more durable that Firestone bags.
There may be other brands of bags that are better, but a good deal is a good deal ($65 ea), so I'm going with the Air Lift bags.

I figure why not?
It's only 4 bags, line and 4 shocks till I can afford the rich guys compressor and such! What other kinds of bags are good! $65 a bag is a good price! |

If I could sell the bed I have for sale (72 long fleet) I would order my entire air setup tomorrow. But as it stands, I'm gonna have to wait for payday. Since I got my frame powdercoated, I want the bags on it NOW!

Hey 67Chevemall, dont forget a tank (or check valves). You gotta' keep the air in there until you get the "rich" guy setup. I am looking into the same kit as most have mentioned above. I am also inquiring into becoming a dealer for EasyStreetAir. Can't reach Corey on the phone yet. Might be worth it to get the wholesale pricing. If so, I will pass the savings on.

O yes the tank! I was leaning towards check valves at the end of the lines (by the fuel filler) But if the tanks are close to the same price I'd go with it!
