airbag question
Friday, June 01, 2007 8:36 AM
i bought a complete setup off of one of my friends. is the front spose to bounce so much when u go over a bump or is the shocks worn out? cuase it bounces like a car without shocks does after i hit a bump.

dont fill the bags so much. you're way overfilling them if your car ever bounces. let some air out with a few flicks of the dump valve. should only really bring your car down a hair. but makes it ride 10x.

ya, what PSI are you riding at for front and rear?

could be that the damping on the strut is too high too or like everyone said the psi is too high. put the psi around 40 and drive around

YEa PSI makes the world of a difference anything over 70 in the front is bouncy as hell, and the dampening might be way to soft also, it my be all the way soft mine was at first on accident

maybe the easystreet fronts but not rears. easystreet doesnt make cylinders for our cars, just sleeve rears. the front doesnt tuck because you have way too much air in your front bags

Sounds more like you have the AIM Industries kit. That kit has rear cylinders and front air struts, but their air struts aren't very good and don't go very low.

it may be, i kno when it was on my buiddies cavalier, layed out it wouldnt tuck the fronts. ti was like having cut springs up front. i want to tuck all the way around, and i would rather have bags all the way around also. would i be better off switching out to easystreet front and rear struts? and keep the rest of my stuff, or just sell it all and start over with a brand new setup?

you can get just the bags but trying to find them for a decent price is a killer. if your gonna buy brand new easystreet struts your better off just buying the whole kit
