I'm Just Really Not Happy With My Airbags

  • I installed an air ride system on my 1979 Lincoln Continental. Outside of installing front shocks, this project is done,...except, I'm just not completely satisfied. The front bags don't have as much height as the rears. After doing some research I think I have a solution to fix the issue.

    Nicely done and great explanation. I've been around air suspension since the late 90s and its always good to have your setup just he way you want it. Keep up the great work.

    • @SkaggsGarage
      @SkaggsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Around $1800 if you do the manual control. Auto-level kits run more. This is the base kit from BC Fabrication.

    What's the diameter on the cup you are using. If you could tell me what the od and ID is and thickness.

    • @SkaggsGarage
      @SkaggsGarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Front or rear? If it's the rear, you're outta luck because the company that put the kit together listed no specs on the cups, front or rear. If you give me a day or so, I can dig the original front cups out of storage and measure them out. Thanks for watching!

      My bags themselves are airmax brand. If you have a 69 Conti, it's way too easy to find kits for your car. A few searches will answer your $ questions! 😁

    Thats because you dont have big compressors to fill up the tank fast and to lift it u should of bought slam bags from fresno ca they go up higher
