Hydros are always getting a bad rap. Ive had air and juice. Personnaly Ive never had a problem with either one of them. If done correctly both are great systems. Never had a leak at all with 4 yrs of hydros.

[QUOTE=BALDMIKE]Bags sound ike sh@t when they are in use, I mean c'mon you all going to tell me that that dumb ass air sound doesn't bother you.QUOTE]


I'll give you that most of the people doin it now are doing it with the cheap valves from chassis tech or they put sumthin on the dump valve to quiet it which then makes it sound annoying, unless its on like a old school show car then Id want it to be quiet as possible and make it go psssssst. But it you get your hands on some SMC or some PARKERS they dont go pssst psssst, they actually sound pretty good and wake the nabors. The thing that bothers me the most on people's air ride is the 4 link joints squeekin. lol. Or a jankie Caprice with the trunk bout to pop open cause all the bass and their lisence plate rattlin.

If you think the sound air ride makes is bad wait till you get around a bunch of bagged rides that have "train horns" hooked to the purge side. That gets annoying reeeeeal quick.

I guess my personal preference is obvious. I would say for a daily driver static drop is probably best. For a cruiser bags win my vote. You can raise it up to drive, and slam it down to pose....
