What air management to get?

I'm trying to figure out what I need for my system if I should try to piece something together or which kit I might need.

I have shockwaves on the front with Porterbuilt c4 drop member and Porterbuilt rear stage 2 kit with I believe ss7 bags. I don't have any lines,tank or anything yet (except bags and shock waves). I'm not looking for the fanciest system just a good realiabe one.

Anybody have any suggestions

I highly recommend an Accuair unit for your valves. Give Travis at AZ ProPerformance a call, I'm sure he can set you up.

There's going to be a handful of ways to do it. Best to establish a "budget" to work with then try and get the best components that fit your limit. Also might try and use parts that can be easily upgraded as time goes on. The leveling system that Accuair makes is the top of the food chain... but doesn't always fit the budget.

As mentioned, Travis at Pro-performance is a great source and has some good deals. We also offer the Accuair components.

Thanks yeah I've looked at them too. I just want to do it right once and not have to go back later and make a bunch of changes so I'll probably have to bite the bullet and get one of the better kits.

Re: What air management to get?

Thanks for the good words guys!

CYLFD, just let me know if I can be of any help in getting the right kit for you and answering any questions you may have. There are multiple options for air management kits, and all depends on budget and features you want.

Ride Tech, hands down. Same day shipping on most parts, carry inventory just like a real company and their controller shows air pressure at all corners and the tank.
