why do people automatically assume that if something is on bags that it will handle like ****? I've been in a few cars on bags that have been driven aggressively and they handle just fine. This is a common misconception and it's getting really old. Don't understand why people feel the need to enter a thread and hate...especially when saying something ignorant by comparing a sube to a honda or you're ruining your car!..f#ck that guy lol...
I like it personally and these are some sick rides so far. I hope this thread goes to 20+ pages.

Could we see some pics of the actual set-ups installed in these cars? Like how the tanks and pumps are mounted in the car how the lines are ran?

I was a Hydraulics Hopper (1978 Ford LTD) in my former life.

I'm in the middle of my install but here is the start of my tank setup in the trunk..



I'll have more pictures this weekend and next. But I basically cut up a piece of MDF and bolted it to where the spare tire bolted to, and that is what the tank is sitting on. My eLevel ecu and manifold will be on it as well.

Lowest I've seen it go is a lil over 2k all the way to 4150k for being the most exspensive. Spend a lil extra more than coilovers and you can ride on a basic air ride

Honestly, it all depends on the air management you end up going with. If you go basic paddle valves, basic everything, its like 500 bucks for that setup, plus the cost of the struts (which all run in the 1800-2100 area give or take from what i've seen).

You can then go with a higher level of air management (which i'm doing) with something like the e-Level. Automatic height adjustment at all four corners, no worrying about manually setting each bag with air, etc.

If anyone is interested, i'd definitely hit up Will@BagRiders, or Andrew@ORT. I ended up not even purchasing anything from Will and he still helped me out and answered all my questions regarding the setup I was going for, which to me is a big deal!

Air, I'm thinking more air under the car. NOPE, none. I was hoping to see one all jacked up in the air. Any of those?

i like the thought of this more and more everyday. it seems like the best of all worlds (except maybe price). i see people say the ride quality is great, is that compared to stock or aftermarket?

if i were to do something like this i would have four settings: high for crazy inclines/speed bumps, stock height, lowered for daily driving and slammed when i lock the car in a parking lot.

this thread is full of win. i know it says not ask technical questions but i'm beyond curious and am really debating going this route. as far as alignment, when the car lowers, does it not mess the figures up at all? is it the same all across the board weather your raised up or laying frame?
