TALL to SMALL the ACCUAIR Suspension System for a Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler Lets You do it All
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 พ.ย. 2022
- Unlike traditional suspension systems that replace your stock coils with a set of taller ones, ACCUAIR uses air springs that can be set and adjusted to anything from stock height to 5.5" of lift and all with just a simple touch of a button. Of course, there really is a lot more to this intelligent and versatile air suspension system and in this video, we hope to share some of it with you.

For those that aren't too familiar with accuair, they've existed in the past primarily focused on the air management systems used in the show/stance/hotrodding communities. In 2020 they announced their bankruptcy and Arnott Industries purchased the rights at auction. Arnott is a major producer for OE replacement air suspension components, from bags to compressors and everything else involved. Its honestly the best case scenario for the consumer as the outcome.
The JT, JL and even their Bronco systems look very very promising. Gives the best of both worlds in regards to lift and practicality. I'm sure you could fit an even bigger tire than a 37 with no issues, with fender clearance being the only serious limitation.
Note: not affiliated, just an engineer that can appreciate how well thought out the whole package is. From a value proposition, its a bargain.
Awesome! thanks for chiming in with all that.
Great information! Thanks as well!
No one is going to mention how awesome this could be for driving sketchy side hills 🤷♀️
LOL - right! I have to say, leveling out just one side on an off camber shelf road came to my mind.
Years ago there was a kit out for the TJ that did just this. It didn’t go anywhere. If you hadn’t mentioned this I wouldn’t have even remembered it.
As I mentioned in my note below, if the target price is missed it won’t sell…or only to a very small market.
That was my first thought! Even just removing a degree or 2 of roll can really help the seat of the pants feel. This could also help with pitch, but thats much less of a concern considering how much longer wheelbase's are vs track width.
@@wayalifethe air kit looks like the same thing you find in semi trucks and large transit bus, l work on these large transit bus with this type of setup, they are reliable, they do need servicing replacement on the air bags when they leaks, leveling valve and blocks.
Super excited to see how this works on the trail!
Awesome! Hope you're a subscriber because we plan on bringing you more videos soon!
I have been running this lift for a little over a year and have been really happy with its performance on and off road.
Awesome! Glad to hear it!
Curious how well the suspension articulates over rocks for more technical trails. Considering doing something similar on my Suzuki Samurai...
Can't wait to see your impressions of this system.
Stoked to see Accuair back from the dead and stepping up to the Jeep market!
Hope to share them with you soon in our upcoming videos.
Thanks for spending the time to get to know our Kit! Enjoy your time with our JT! Can’t wait to see where you take it. 🎉
LOL - thank you for the opportunity to test out your rig! We really do appreciate it :)
That’s one of the fastest air-suspensions I’ve ever seen. Looks amazing.
I was bummed because I noticed they never showed it lowering/raising while they were talking. Every time I'd be waiting to see and they'd zoom in on his fingers on the app or something that nobody cares about. They'd quickly cut to a close-up where it was probably sped up. All I wanted to see was what it looked like as it adjusted in real time - unfortunately never happened.
@Hill Hammer [Nasty Boys Dirt Club] LOL - sorry we chose to do some editing to help make our video more interesting but there was no slight of hand going on here or things sped up as you seem to be imagining. The 3 gallon air tank exists to help ensure rapid airing up and the purge valve really does let out that much air. We'll try to do our best to show you how fast it really is and in a way that your eyes will believe in a future video. But clearly, you can believe whatever it is you want to believe 🤪
All that for that price is actually really good! The ability to level out when you get to camp is pretty sweet. Made in USA!!!! Love it!
I think so too. Certainly, it isn't cheap but there are kits out there that cost more and do less. Made in the USA makes a big difference to me as well.
This system is very impressive and I can’t wait to see it on the trail
I have been hesitant to lift my wrangler as my wife has trouble getting in and out of anything above ride height so this system looks like it has solved that
This is the reason I love your channel so much you bring the best stuff for wrangler owners
Awesome! Always happy to know that people like you are appreciative of the content we provide. And yes, you can lower this system to your bump stops making it super easy to get in and out of your Jeep. Once you're off, it'll automatically go back up to ride height.
Great first look! Can’t wait to hear first impressions off road. From a convenience aspect it’s 💯!
Hope you're a subscriber because we hope to do more videos and off road soon :)
That is sooo cool. I like how they went a totally different route. Looking forward to how it does in the real world.
Awesome! Glad to hear you're excited about this.
Excited to watch and learn more about this suspension. Long term reliability is key however.
Awesome! Hope you're a subscriber as we plan on posting a lot more videos highlighting it.
Really curious to see the feedback on this. I had run across these earlier and had a factory air system on my 2016 Ram Rebel. Never off roaded it, but loved the system. The fact it auto adjusts the leveling when you add weight/mods or tow could be a game changer too.
Well, I hope you're a subscriber because we plan on posting up a lot more videos highlighting everything we can.
@@wayalife I am now. I have been enjoying your videos for a little over a year now. Actually looking at making the trip from Illinois to Arizona this summer based on some of them.
@@midwesternguy370 Awesome! I hope you have a great trip :)
He said 3.5” lift on a wrangler only allows for 35’s with this kit, I get him being a manufacturer and saying that, I would imagine 37’s on a rubicon with this kit would be easy peasy. If not, it will lose major market share as let’s be honest, 37’s are the minimum these days. Stoked to see future videos!
Correct, you can easily run 37's on a JL especially with a Rubicon but their kit has its FMVSS 126 compliant handling certification based on 35's. That's the only reason they state that.
I have last years setup on a jl sport and I run 37’s no problem. 37’s are actually what the jl demo for this product are running. They have multiple videos on you tube showing the Jeep.
This looks like its gonna be good! The JLTV I drive does sooo well offroad on its air suspension. I cant wait to see how well this does
I could definitely see a super nice ride usually air suspensions are really like riding on a cloud it will be interesting to see how it's flexibility is
We hope to show you this soon :)
I have a similar system on my Denali and its simply great. Love it.
Awesome :)
I can't wait to hear how it rides.
We needed to test it out for ourselves before we could say. Our next video will cover that.
maybe I missed it but I'd are limit straps so you don't rip the air bag apart? looks fun
No need for limit straps. The shocks are specific in length to prevent the over extension of the air bags.
Curious to see how it would do when your off-road flexing things out. How the bags would handle droop and compression.
Well, we intend to test that out and hope you check back to see our videos highlighting what we find.
Bags on trucks lifted or lowered been around...like a while. Downside is, you get a leak, a puncture , or hardware issue and your lift is, not a lift.I own air setups, have been doing air setups for over 20yrs..I wouldnt put one on a offroad vehicle unless its designed like a Military MRAP and the airbags are Protected, Where these are Not. Thanks for the Video🍿🍻
Wow, game changer here. So much value for that buy in price and Made in America........Well I know which route I'm going when my Mojave Fox 2.5 shocks are ready to be serviced.
Awesome! I'm glad that we could share this with you.
Thank you so much Eddie , for taking the time to send me this link . Don’t know how the hell i missed this one . I have been here with you for many years and have watched every video you and your wife have ever made . I must be slacking 😂😂😂
LOL - it's all good and we appreciate you being a long time viewer of our videos 😎
While I have a JT Rubicon, I also have a 2017 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk with an air suspension in which I have run trails like Elephant Hill. Got to say I love the idea of having air on a JT. Can’t wait to see how it does!
Very cool! Please subscribe and see what new videos we present to you.
What an awesome looking system. I think this will also open up for those with physical disabilities and/or limitations.
The factory one I had on my Ram was great for lowering so my dad who I was shuttling to medical appoints could easily get in and out. He would not have been able to do that if it was at factory or lifted height. He can't get in my lifted Jeep and I would love to be able to take him Jeeping. If this can handle light to moderate trails it would be a great potential solution.
Yes, this is definitely something that would be helpful for people with physical disabilities.
Cool overview. I came across these recently for both Jeep and Bronco. Would love to hear impressions on ride quality at the different height levels. Sounds like they engineered it to keep a constant rate, so hopefully it rides the same regardless of how much pressure is in the bags.
From what we have been able to test so far, there is no change in ride quality and comfort at any height.
Awesome! Can’t wait to see what adventures you go on with the air ride!
Awesome! Hope you'll check back again soon.
Absolutely! You still have THE BEST channel on TH-cam!
Lots of questions but I’ll wait until more videos come out to see if they are answered. Air leaks are my first concern.
Totally legit concern. I won't lie, it's one of mine as well.
I would like to see the articulation vs something stock, or equivalent to the 3.5 inch spring setup
Hmmm, I'll see what we can do. I know it's not the same but we might be able to compare it to our stock 392.
Look great and great to see a Florida Tag on a Jeep thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Since they removed the sway bar disconnect I’d like to see the articulation on the trail, plus with the rock crawling that you do the durability is going to be tested as you slide up and over the rocks.
We will be sure to show how this Jeep performs out on the rocks. As far as durability goes, I can't say that I've ever hit my coils with rocks before but I suppose anything is possible.
RIght on. I'd like to have that sway bar on a windy Wyoming highway day. There's definitely a time for stiff. When extreme crawling, wonder if they've got limit straps to avoid overextending the bags. That negative stretch is a lot of wear and tear and not really what they are designed for. In brush, I'd also think that ripping out airlines is a constant risk. Also thinking about the skid compressor mounting - how will that work with aftermarket belly pans and other aftermarket armor? Probably a fail or cutting/welding. Anyhoo ... does not seem like a robust offroad solution. Great for weekend warrirors with trailers or that haul lots of stuff -- which I guess is 99% of Gladiator owners anyway. Wonder if this thing fits standard aftermarket inner fenders? Not a hater - I think this is so cool. Just thinking ahead for a few things.
can not wait to see how this system stands up to off-roading. I see a lot of pluses with this system.
Hope you're a subscriber as we plan on posting up more videos to highlight this and more.
Cannot wait to see all the new content wheeling this badboy😊
Awesome! Hope to show that to you and even how it does overall as a daily driver soon.
Can't wait to see how it performs!
If you aren't already a subscriber, be sure to become one now as we will be posting up more videos soon.
I would love a video where you explain some of the advantages of the different suspensions. Like the EVO double throw down. Coil overs. When is it good to make the jump from coil-shock to coil overs. What is the advantage of the second shock in the double throw down. Etc.
I love you information videos.
I appreciate the suggestion. I'll see what I can do.
I’m very excited for this, I’ve toyed with the idea having this kit on my 4xe now for about a year!
Unfortunately, it is not available for a 4Xe as of now due to the battery under the rear seat is where this system would go. That said, ACCUAIR is working on a solution for this and they plan on having something out by next year.
@@wayalife I too have a 4xe and was wondering the same thing - thanks for the update
@@wayalife Thanks for the Update! I use the 4xe for a lot of different uses, having an adaptable suspension to different loads and uses would be awesome!
Really looking forward to this real world test!
Awesome! Glad to hear you're interested in this system
I was hoping for somewhere around 3 grand. Hope whoever can afford this really gets to enjoy it.
It's clearly a pricey kit but it is still cheaper than coilovers.
@@wayalife agreed, but I’ve never even considered coilovers. What I was looking for, is a way to keep my stocks on my diesel in order to maintain good mpg to work. Then bolt my 37s on when going to the trails. I need a lift that can do both of those while not rubbing and not looking like a roller skate.
I’d love to see an install video on this system! I like the auto level feature
Sorry, not sure if we can provide that or at least, anytime soon. But, I'll see what we can do.
I think the coolest thing about their control system is that they could use most of the same hardware but potentially build out a CTIS system with it.
That's awesome. I'm looking forward to your videos where you'll be testing this gladiator. Hopefully one day, a system like this will be available in Australia too.
Glad to hear you're liking what you see.
It's hard not to. lol
Had a similar system in my grand Cherokee overland. It was awesome at all settings except rock, which was intended to provide maximum lift but actually made the suspension stiff as a rock. I hope that’s not your finding as well. Watching this series to see the outcome. Cheers!
Cool! Hope to show you what it can do soon.
Can't wait to see how it articulates on a hard trail!
Hope to get to that soon. Been having to deal with unrelated rear axle gear issues.
Definitely a cool product! The fact that it’s made in the USA…. 🇺🇸🔥
Really looking forward to learning more about your experiences with the Acuair system. Can it take off road driving? How well does it air up your tires? Will those bladders hold up & not burst after a year or more off-road use? Sounds awesome & I hope those answers make me want to spend $6-7k
Hope to show you what it can do in future episodes.
Awesome Outstanding job thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Cool product and I hope the company does well but not for me- ever. After wheeling an LR4 with air sus I will never have air sus on an offroad rig again. My LR4 was actually extremely reliable throughout its life, but the one thing that gave me a nagging feeling when I was wheeling was the air sus. The LR4 system would drop to bump stops if there was a system fault, and of course if it loses air. With oversized tires you are jammed in your own wheel wells and stranded. It did it once to me, although luckily only 2 miles from home on roads and was able to crawl home. But had I needed articulation- I would have been stranded. There are also so many more failure points- the compressor, the lines, the bags, the computer, and they’re not fixable on a trail unless you go carrying around another entire system.
Also usually air bags lose articulation as they fill. So you have your choice of either height or articulation, but usually not both. You need to get this on an RTI ramp and compare it at each setting height to a non air sus Jeep of same height lift.
Yes they have benefits, being able to raise and lower is nice for loading and unloading, fitting into parking decks, maybe getting you off a high center (I never used it for this once), but to me the negatives outweigh the positives for anything but a pavement princess. The old schoolness of the Jeep Gladiator is exactly why I’m in it.
Look forward to the upcoming vids. But take a buddy with you.
If only money was not an issue. I'd choose this over a standard lift. I have airbags in my truck and the ride is so smooth. Would love to have this in my jeep someday.
You could always try to win it th-cam.com/video/_QLbNxf1gCI/w-d-xo.html
Hey Eddy, long time follower here, I think myself and other fellow jeepers are interested to see how it compares side by side to a standard 3.5 inch coil spring lift kit of similar make up. Mostly I’m interested to see how it flex’s! Keep us posted!
Awesome! Hope to test it out on the rocks and share what we find soon. Please check back for new uploads :)
Hey Eddy looks like you're in my home state. This is going to be very interesting to see how well it does. We all know Eddy ain't afraid of rubbin on the rocks!🥃🥂
LOL - always nice to be in Arizona, especially in the winter. Super nice out and yes, we were given the okay to "scratch up" this Jeep 😁
Definitely a cool idea... I can see many benefits for sure. My biggest question is... how much flex? More than stock? Less than stock? Typically bags are pretty limited in stroke. Proprietary bags need to be replaced every several years due to dry rot, so better hope the company is around and still making replacements down the road.
I think you'll be surprised at how much flex you can get out of this kit. Please subscribe and we'll be sure to show you what it can do out on the rocks soon. As far as the bags go, ACCUAIR is telling me they should last at least 100k miles and if any fail before then, they will replace them free of charge. Last but not least, Arnott is now the owner of the company and you can be sure they will be around for a long time to come.
Fabulous.
Glad you like what you see.
That certainly looks purdy trick! Can't wait for the trail tests!!! I'm not all that up on suspension geometry, but I wonder if changing the height affects pinion angles?
With factory shafts that are running rzeppa joints, pinion angle is not critical. That said, you would still set pinion for ride height as that's what the system defaults to when driving over 25 mph.
A DREAM !
Awesome! Glad we could share this with you.
That’s pretty awesome that you get to do the R&D. That JT is in for a ride 😂. (“Use it as we would any of our Jeeps”.) All in all, looks like a cool concept for city use and light wheeling. Interested to see how it flexes and articulates while wheeling.
LOL - we were even given the OK to "scratch it up" 😁 Looking forward to sharing what we do with this thing.
I'm curious about how it articulates as well. Does it do well keeping all tires on the ground without having to manually adjust each corner, etc.
@@shadow9600 We hope to find out soon and share it with you.
Very cool!
Glad you like what you see :)
Saludos desde Arica Chile 🇨🇱
Wish they had a diesel JL version this looks like a great option
The diesel takes up space that is used with this kit but they're working on it.
Looks really cool, perhaps something we’ll see in the next generation. My number one question though is it’s reliability and real world functionality off road.
So far so good. We hope to test it out and let you know if anything goes wrong.
I would love this system on my Powerwagon... Not sure on my jeep. I will be watching.
Glad to hear you're interested in what you see.
Well Well Well This might push to get a Gladiator Can’t wait for the review!! Hahaha
LOL - awesome! Hope you're a subscriber because we plan on posting a whole host of videos highlighting different aspects of this system
Can’t wait to see how the bronco handles this when they release it!
I'm sure it will perform just as well.
Looks like something cool for yuppie mall crawlers... I'll stick with my ORIs for far less and let me remove sway bars, shocks, springs, bump stops and limit straps and run 40s or 42s.I will stay tunes to see your thoughts on it offroad.
LOL - maybe so but there are a lot more of them than guys who are wanting to run built up rigs.
@@wayalife Fact
So where do you set your caster and pinion angle at? Lots of geometry sweep it seems like throughout the different ride heights.
Please check back for an answer on our upcoming videos.
Ok that’s awesome! A bit pricey but for the adjustability of it… I bet worth every penny!
Can’t wait to see more videos of you wheeling it and putting it through the paces!
Awesome! Glad we could share this with you and hope you do check back soon for more videos highlighting this Jeep and it's ACCUAIR system.
1971 CJ5 needs new knees like these!
LOL
To be honest, I don't think I will ever use a air bag on a rig made for off road.. But the idea is good..
LOL - clearly, it's not for everyone.
Very flipping cool
Glad you like what you see 👍🏻
Yes love new stuff
I’m curious about the flex if it will flex nice I would buy for sure can’t wait to see please give us a review on that please 😊
If you're not already a subscriber, please do so now as we will be sure to post up more videos highlighting everything you're wanting to know.
Im sure the air bags will hold up to whatever you throw at them. Ive ran airlift and accuair products on my cars for years. As long as you install everything properly and keep airlines away from pinch points and heat sources youll be fine.
one thing to keep in mind, is to keep airline antifreeze in your system during the winter to prevent ie build up
Remember semi trucks run air bags.
I think you're right and hope to find out for myself. As far as winter goes, I was told to add air compressor oil to the system. Is there something better you would recommend?
@@wayalife CRC Air Brake Antifreeze.
@@alecskursha2090 Thank you!
I've asked that question to ACCUAIR on a forum (I live in northern Canada) and I copy/paste their answer here: "We do recommend adding a few ounces of air brake antifreeze to the system during extreme cold temps."
I’m also wanting to get a Magnason for my gladiator, don’t know which one to get first now! Arrrrrrrg!
Me personally, I would never run a supercharger in my Jeep. There's a reason why shops that specialize in V8 swaps have a ton of used ones laying around on pallets. If you want more power, save up for a V8. Trust me.
I am currently running the original kit that was introduced at sema last year on my 2021 jl. I got to admit that the concept of this setup is really nice, however, I’ve had a lot of problems out of my ride height sensors not wanting to stay in range. Accu air tech support is pretty much non existent. Now with that being said, after 7 months of taking the Jeep back to the installer multiple times, accu air is going to send me the new control arms from the new kit that was just displayed in the video. Fingers crossed that those will fix my problem. Other than the ride height sensors giving me trouble, i have to say that i am overall impressed with this set up and the ride it provides.
It should be noted that ACCUAIR had actually gone out of business and had since been acquired by a new company called Arnott. I was told that they are replacing ALL of the original kits with their new one. If you have any other issues, I would recommend that you contact them directly.
Hey Rocky, I spoke with ACCUAIR about the problems you have and they really want to speak with you. They're quite sure you still have an older kit and would like to fix that. Please reach out to them directly as they are eager to help you out! :)
@@wayalife Thank you for going above and beyond to help me out. I really appreciate it greatly thank you I will definitely reach out to them. Up until this point I have only went through my installer, so I will definitely reach out.
@@Rockyc My pleasure and glad that I could be of help :)
I wonder if the dirt, mud, or salt would get into the air suspension system causing problems long term.... looking forward to seeing you in taking these new stuff to the trail...
I have a teraflex lift myself but dont mind switching to something like this..
We don't have salt issues where we live but I could see that being a potential problem. Otherwise, we hope to test what we can out and share it here on our TH-cam channel :)
I put a full suspension kit on my Mojave (less the shocks and the hydrolic jounce stops) with new rocker and control arms to keep the drive shaft angle to a certain range. I wonder how or if that's accomplished with this set up....
You would set your drive shaft to whatever standard all around setup you plan on running on a regular basis. When driving at speeds of over 25 mph, that's what the system will default to.
Be a great system to mount stutter tone fire truck horns(my personal favorite)or train horns.🌞
This'll get interesting.
LOL - I hope you check back for more videos.
謝謝分享！
Curious to see how it flexes... does the bag just stretch? looking forward to future videos
We'll be sure to do a video highlighting flex and on the rocks performance.
I've been watching custom car builder shows for years wondering when someone would figure out how to bag a jeep like they do the hot rods. I knew I should have filed for that patent! Lol
LOL
I WANT ONE!!!!!!
Can't wait to see the final thoughts and opinions
We will have a host of videos highlighting how this system works over the next few months. We hope you subscribe and watch them all :)
I’ve owned a few cars with accuair struts installed. I would love to see my gladiator with that kit. Anyway you can hook a heavy tow load up and let us know how the ride is with it auroleveled?
Actually, I definitely think we can do a heavy tow video.
Im interested in how the track bars work since deffrent lift hights change track bar length. Also control arm length with caster.
For sure, you will see axle shift at different heights but from what we've seen, it isn't enough to really notice or matter. Caster really isn't an issue with FAD but the rear pinion will need to be set for standard ride height.
Thanks for the video. Do you know if it would work with other after market shocks (provided the shock travel is compatible)? It would be nice to maintain the compression/rebound dampening adjustability some fancier shocks provide along with remote reservoirs. The shocks that come with the kit do not seem to be adjustable (?) .
So long as you're running shocks made for a JL or JT if that's what you have and they are the correct length (extended and collapsed), there should be no reason why you couldn't run them with the air pistons that come with this kit.
Cool indeed, but the elephant in the room is the $7000 cost. Many, if not the majority of us already have an air system, which would make mine a +$900 paperweight. Unless the pricing was cut in half and there was a retrofit for a dual ARB, it is a novelty I’ll do without. Additionally, there was no comment, which I’m sure you’ll cover in an upcoming update video, regarding the noise/volume of the interior mounted air compressor. There was a short blip in this video where you could hear it cycle on, but it was from the exterior.
LOL - there's always ebay! But, in all seriousness, it's definitely pricey and out of reach for most people. Where it's really worth considering is for the guy who can afford coilovers or some of the high end long arm kits out there. This system actually costs less than them.
@@michaelwait3326 The compressor is NOT inside the Jeep. It's located on the skid plate underneath the Jeep along with the air tank. You can barely hear it.
I need this
It is a nice setup.
If this thing holds up off-road with Eddy behind the wheel, I'll be thoroughly impressed! Does it have lockers?
LOL - we plan to put it to the test for sure and yes, it came with lockers.
I can see this for overlanding.
Yup, that's exactly where I see this kit shining.
I'm curious about this as well. Wonder how it rides if one of the bags breaks down on the trail...
First off, the air bag shouldn't just break down but coming from a guy who has broken a coil, I know anything is possible. That said, if one were to fail, it'd be like riding on your bump stop.
I wonder about maintenance plans, etc. Expected replacement time for any parts? 5 years, 10 years?
I will look into this and share what I find.
I'd love to see something in conjunction with coils. Something that would fit inside the coil to adjust on sketchy obstacles.
That has existed for quite some time now and we have run it in the past and I can tell you that it provides a terrible ride and it's nowhere near as functional as this kit. The most they can do is help keep your Jeep from sagging with weight and will NOT allow your suspension to stuff or go to full compression very well.
@@wayalife
This product wouldn't work with the wheeling I do, but I'd love some sort of Pneumatic or hydro adjustments separate from the main suspension, that's not what the airbags you're referring too were designed for.
It's interesting though and I'm looking forward to your testing.
When you change the suspension height that much, how does the track bar holds on the change of geometry? Would it move the diff towards the driver side and limit it on highway speeds?
As mentioned in the video, you cannot drive your Jeep at the highest or lowest setting above 25 mph. Or I should say, the system will bring you back to it's default setting automatically.
Curious to see if there are any problems with the steering in relation to running different heights and the traction control going crazy.
You set steering to whatever your default ride height is. In this case, it is set for 3.5" of lift. The lowest setting you can go and still drive over 25 mph is 1.5" and the change in height isn't enough to affect traction control. Anything lower or anything higher than 3.5" and you cannot drive faster than 25 mph and again, traction control is not an issue.
I’d like to see how much it can flex out.
Honestly, I don't think flex is the point of a suspension system like this but we will for sure test that out and share what it can do with you. Hope you check back for future videos.
Can u Order this right from the Factory Where the Jeep is Built ?
Hmmm, wasn't expecting that offer. Curious how it does offroad
We hope to share that with you in future videos. We hope you check back :)
that is so cool...like a Range Rover but 100% Jeep... is it available for JK's (SWB)?
Unfortunately, this is only available for the JL and JT for now.
I really curious how the airbags will hold up to constant clay/muck/wet dirt road stuff; I live on the worst dirt road ever and it is a constant battle to keep my rock slide rock sliders from bounding up. Please test for these conditions; freezing conditions with the gunk is even worst.
Well, we will be taking this thing back to our home up north and winter is here. We'll see what we can do to show how it does there.
I'm interested in how robust the system is over a regular lift kit system. Especially the way you drive and push the platform.
LOL - well, we were given the green light to drive and "wheel" this rig like we would any of our Jeeps. And, we plan to do just that! Hope you check back with us to see our upcoming videos.
That is awesome! When do you start!! I feel the need to get this kit. Plan on getting the Magnason super charger as well.
I am very interested to see how well the suspension articulates at full lift.
Honestly, I don't think big flex is why this system exists but you can be sure that we will test and show that on future videos.
