Awesome work. I'm also in process of bagging my W126 here in California. I actually ordered the Dolud kit and the rear bag setup is using the shock mounting points and I'm guessing nothing goes where the original spring goes. It's an interesting setup. I never took it apart but the shocks seem to sit inside the bag housing. I haven't worked on it in months because not looking forward to removing my SLS system and been waiting for some fittings from airlift. I look forward to seeing some more of your videos.
can i make a recommendation. i would a water trap in line with the comnpressor. especially with a steel tank. it will help with rusting out. if you need any help with getting anything setup send me a message. love the simple install video. i have some air ride videos on my channel. mine was pricier with gauges and electric solenoids but i would love to help if you have any questions, i also recommend wiring the relay to a switched input so the compressor doesnt run if the car is off. the tank will lose pressure and the compressor will run if the car is off. then battery will die. ask me how i know lol
Lowkey wanna bag my first gen xb cuz the look awesome bagged but it’s stock so there’s cheaper things I’d rather do before I consider bagging it. Awesome series of bagging your car tho
I have a 90 420 sel currently in the middle of swapping a 383 stroker in it would you be down to bag it for me if I drive it down to you? I’ll pay of course
Well a relay has a: -Coil connector 1 -Coil connector 2 -NO (normally open) -COM (common) -NC (normally closed). So positive goes to a fuse after that to input pressure switch and output goes to coil ''Coil connector 1'', ''Coil connector 2'' goes to GND or negative -, positive from the battery goes also to relay COM and NO goes to compressor while negative of compressor connects to the chasie. I would suggest before you connect the pressure switch to positive add a wire that goes to like headlights or something because for the pump to not turn on when the car is off it will work only if you have the headlights on witch is always when the car is on.
Neat!! I really want to bag my mkv tdi, but it needs a clutch and tune before anything like that happens. One suggestion for your trap door in the trunk. Go check out some cabinet hinges that mount inside, that way the top deck of the trunk floor is completely smooth sans the pull tab 😁
Thats gonna be next episode. They arent in yet but i already figures where im gonna move them too. Hard to explain over text but inbetween lca and axle.
That is usually an optical illusion. If you look at the wheel arches, the front arch higher than the back to give more turning room for the front wheels. That is why the car sits level on the bottom, but the rear wheels have more tuck.
some older deiesls are a bitch to start when they run out of fuel ... thr hole priming/ Bleeding maybe install a float in that small tank somthing to indicate its empty
The fuel cell has a sending unit in it. I haven't figured out if I am running a wire to the stock gas gauge or if I have to use the aftermarket gauge that I have.
Shit! That is awesome I have to admit! Lol I’ve had my eye on a friends old 240sd in his dads garage. And this is just giving me the worst kind of ideas. Lol
I don't even like bagged cars generally, but this is awesome. The fact that it's diesel is even better.
Thanks dude!
Boo! 😎
@@bigkeg9173 Haha yo I was actually gonna reply to your comment.
@@802Garage 👍👍
This is great. the fact that its a diesel is just amazing. looking to do the same thing on mine hopefully
The custom fuel setup is awesome ! In the future you could cut the bottom of the trunk floor to accommodate a flat larger tank but its great!
Thank you for taking the time to take videos and show us shop dummies..

How’d the dolud kit go? Have you got it in the car yet?
Love the old Mercedes diesel. I put a om617 in my Jeep Cherokee when back when I was in highschool.
Not a bad deal for $600 but the amount if custom work vs bolt-on application is night day when it comes to fitment worries.
I love it. Gives me Junction Produce vibes.
Thanks man!
Looks awesome, good job 👍
Thanks!
would you now how to bag a 96 chevy 4 door 3500 series Silverado dually?
can i make a recommendation. i would a water trap in line with the comnpressor. especially with a steel tank. it will help with rusting out. if you need any help with getting anything setup send me a message. love the simple install video. i have some air ride videos on my channel. mine was pricier with gauges and electric solenoids but i would love to help if you have any questions, i also recommend wiring the relay to a switched input so the compressor doesnt run if the car is off. the tank will lose pressure and the compressor will run if the car is off. then battery will die. ask me how i know lol
You didnt i nstall a leveling valvehow the air from tank stop goin to the airbag ?
Bro , great build, it looks sick.
Can you give me more detail on the airbag like model ,make and price want to do the same to my w210
Question , for the front lower mount how did you hold it in place did you weld it or put a bolt through center thank you
Damn good video series bro!🔥
Where’s the manifold for the air ride
Hi nice set up will universal triple bags go lift higher then ur double bag
I know this is an older video I recommend highly recommend a pressure release valve on the air tank
The sound of that compresser is always will be there?? 😳🤨 when the battery is connected
No turns off at 180 psi and then turns back on at 150 or less psi
Looks like all bushings will be destroyed fast. How are you going to fight problem with bushings and changing height once in a while?

what size wheel are you using
Awesome vid, I am trying to add air ride on my old 1950 ford shoebox, how would you connect the relay? I am not firmiliar with electrical

My 12 valve has same exhaust tip lol, looks cool
What are your measurements on the bag cups?
I have questions about this just recently bought your old car
I might be able to answer them. I know other people have done stuff so I'm not sure whats different now.
Great video man... part 1 was helpful as well

Good idea.
In regards to the rear shocks. Where are those mounted now ?
Thats gonna be next episode. They arent in yet but i already figures where im gonna move them too. Hard to explain over text but inbetween lca and axle.
I need thoes cups for my w140...
Wow good job 👏
I hate that the back always goes lower and tucks more than the front, even on my car.. Great video nonetheless ✊🏾

Shit! That is awesome I have to admit! Lol I’ve had my eye on a friends old 240sd in his dads garage. And this is just giving me the worst kind of ideas. Lol
