Maybe it's the other way around.

I'm want air ride suspension.
make sure you use bags.

Some people use pnuematic cylinders instead of bags.

Only thing I can think of.

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

Air Ride is a company. Air bags/suspension parts are made by many companies.

Kind of like Q-tips and ear swabs. Get it?

Its Air Ride Technologies(ART) and the other was probably AirBagit.com.
ART has quality products and airbagit sells Chassis Tech....

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

I just purchased my bags and ride control from airbagit.com and they substituted everything I ordered. I received in place of my 2600 single 3/8 port bags, 1/2" Dual port single ply 2600 bags, my ride control was replaced with a Plastic digital read out cluster with oil pressure senders, And they changed my check valve to 1/2 instead of 3/8. So far the solution has been to send me a $50.00 Gift certificate if I post comments on three other forums. I subscribe to minitruckin and see the recent ads saying that JOEMORROW has sold but will fix any problems but all of my emails seem generic from his E-mail.

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

Seriously, why does anyone still do business with these clowns? It's not like folks haven't tried to warn others about them. <sigh>

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

Belltech will stand behind their product and exchange if something is wrong with it. No questions asked.

Try that with those other clowns.

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

I didnt have much of a problem with airbagit.com's customer service. But the Chassis tech control arms suck! I wont deal with either again.

Re: Air Ride vs Air Baggin

Had issues w/ chassis tech. Got their drop spindles for a 66 c10 drum brakes. They sent me an unknown one and hung up on us when we said we had drum brakes and they said the 66 had disc brakes stock and we should look at our truck before we buy parts for it. Spent a whole day looking at the moog catalog and never could find a disc and balljoints that fit it, and chassis tech wouldn't take it back w/o a 30% restock. Never buy from them, seriously.
