Re: air ride parts
i am not recommending that psi i am just saying that is what i run i have never had any problems with my setup nor with any other i have done i just saw some people on here aksing about what are good parts and i was just saying what i think are good i am not saying one way or the other its just that some of the people asking about parts may want to know there are people that do run shockless. and what parts some people like i have a good freind with shocks on his set up and that works for him but i just dont see the point in adding them and i am being serious and how am i a numb skull for trying to give people some help with parts i thought a fourm was to help people? its too bad that some one will give you Sh*t for saying waht they like or dont like.
this is one of my s10s with over 200 psi WITH OUT SHOCKS laying on 22s [IMG] ![]() this one has no shocks ![]() this one also ![]() |

I dont think anyone was giving you a hard time, it sounds that they were more curious than anything. I just finished installing a complete air ride set-up, and I have also never heard of running without shocks. I watched your videos and it looks like your goal for air ride is different than most on this board. In my situation I was just looking for great ride quality and the ability to adjust the ride height when needed. Dont shocks also help with the rebound of the springs, not just the compression? I guess if your looking for immediate fast responses when airing out or raising your vehicle shocks would slow it down. I would think that shocks would help a lot with the rebound. When looking at ride quality, I cannot see in any apllication where shocks would hurt, only help. But this is also someone who has never drivin an air ride vehicle. I have ridden in a few, but don't have anything to compare them too. By the way nice truck
