I am thinking about putting my xa on air ride. Anyone with their xa's doing this here?
Any information ( such as where to buy, what to buy, general info) is greatly appreciated.

I have all universalairsuspension.com 3/8 inch valves and all on wireless remote. It works great, but due to weight of vehicle it is very bouncy. I used factory struts in front and ut them down and then welded new bottom bag mounts and it got me about 7 inches of drop. looks great but then again if i had to drive it a lot I would go back with regular suspension, go with somecoilovers and be done with that youll be happy with it!!! this is the third car i have had bags on, and I have said everytime that I wouldnt do it again but i like it low if ou have other questions please hollar t me. matt

Airrunner, hands down best out there(I have it on mine :D) Autofashionusa.com is a good distributor for em too. The kit is extremely easy bolt-on to the point that I sat down with a friend and got it done in roughly a day. They're not fast bags, but that's a good thing, they last longer and are tons more reliable.

Yes, if you are new to air suspension, do the airride kits they are great, easy to install, and have replacement part at our disposal. i did mine totally stealth and cannot see any of it unless I show you. one word of advise purchase a few feet of hose and some in line connectors, just in case you have blown hose you can make a patch and stay on the road. and also be sure that your jack will go under the car when it is dropped all of the way, no air means no lift. mmm

whats the price difference between airrunner and universal air ride? Ive been told airrunner is like buying a used car

Psyco565 · Posted: 8/2/08 9:22AM Post subject:

Airrunner is expensive because they are made and shipped from Japan (3k), a comparable universal air kit is about 2k. Works out to a difference of 1k in price but it all comes down to the details such as quality, customer support, ect. (Not to say I've thoroughly compared the two companies on the matter, basically get on the net and jump around some forums ect)
