Airride vs. Accuair
Guys....Airride vs Accuair? Is one better than the other? Or is this just a matter of preference? I know Airride has been around longer, but Accuair controls are much nicer in my opinion. Now, I will be running the Airride Shockwaves for my setup. Any pros and cons between the two?

Re: Airride vs. Accuair
good question. I have the "Ride Tech" Pro E system (computer & controller) & have no complaints about it. But I have been checking out the Accuair & think I will be using their system for my next project. They (Accuair) have a good point, doesn't matter what pressure your bags are, the important thing is to drive at the designed ride height. & they claim their height sensor is the same that GM & ford use.

Re: Airride vs. Accuair
My first truck was with air ride and that goes back 15 yrs or so and never had a problem. I have done dozens of systems since that first one with all different companies but on my personal rides I will only use Accuair! I just feel it is the state of the art system on the market. The accuracy, performance, target height each and every time, quality and looks are #1.
Just to be clear I have no affiliation with them nor do I get free parts, I pay just like everyone else, I just feel that strong about it. Kevin LFD Inc. |

Re: Airride vs. Accuair
I have been installing AccuAir kits since they started. They have came along way. There system has always been based on suspension height and not on air pressure. Air Pressure based systems are not accurate. I have replaced at least 5 Ridetech systems with the AccuAir systems and all those customers were ready to get rid of there bags until they used the Accu Air Systems.
I will only install Accu Air on my cars and my customers cars. Check out the Accu Air System @ Sema.... http://video.streetlegaltv.com/video/11124 Last edited by fastbagged68; 11-15-2009 at 02:20 AM. |
