Air Managment

My truck is a SWB PB front A arms PB mild C-notch in the rear. Trying to decide on what type of air management system to run..

1. We could just do a standard valve type system $
2. Run the AccuAir Switch speed system. $$
3. Go all out and get the AccAir E-level system. $$$$$$$

I list these this way because these are all kits I can buy since I know nothing about air ride.

So I guess what I'm trying to find out as you step up in systems you step up in price. Is the E level worth all the extra money on a ride that's not laying frame.

Re: Air Managment

I had a basic air management setup......it sucked for a truck that driven daily. You cant go wrong with accuair its the best !! If it was not for there e level system the old burb would be back on coils .

Here is the old burb with 2000lb of concrete bags in the back. I did only have to drive 5 miles with this load Turn the key a drive. Perfect camber and caster every time

Re: Air Managment

Kevin,... member way2lo2 can set you up with a "manual" air ride system.
I have this in my '61 Belair.
It would be my choice before I would run 8 individual parker style valves and a switch box.

But Accuair really is the sh*t.
Just depends on how much you want to spend.

I would either do this simple paddle valve style or full accuair elevel. nothing in between. I have elevel on my wagon and its amazing. We put manual paddle valves on my brothers chevelle and its a nice simple system
