I work professionally on fab and I enjoy doing things on the cheap... your presentation is really well developed. Your whole setup is awesome and budget friendly. Amazing quality bro. Not sure on angling the setup but I don't think it should hurt.
On the rear of my w123, i made long shock brackets to go on the other side of the CV axle, and cut a hole in the trunk space for the shock to stick through and bolt in inside the car. So far its working well. Im working on the front airbag setup now using your video for ideas. Good video!
Bro I can't even right now. I bagged my truck with absolutely no know how. You are miles ahead of where I was at the same time. Wish i had seen this first. That being said I bought from airmax as well. I got 2 480 compressors A 5 gallon tank 1/2" air line (mistake) 6 valves, 2 for each front corner, and 2 for the rear 2 2500 bags for the front 2 2600 bags for the rear Parallel 4 link etc, I wasted so much money. Wish I knew about the paddles
Thanks, that's a 1 1/4" spacer because these wheels are the wrong offset. But as you will see in part 2 I think they fit the look of the car perfectly, especially in the front.
@@wideband I got some 20mm spacers for the rear of my V70 (98) which has filled the stance out nicely. Strangely, the V70 rear axle width is 40mm narrower than the front from the factory.. so now they are equal.
I have a 60s 4WD vehicle with 4 leaf springs and regular shock dampeners. (at 1:28 you see them) I can't take out the leaf springs so I would replace the shock dampeners with airbags. does that work as well? there are Monroe air shocks with a similar shape. anything I need to worry about?
This is awesome... I'm trying to get this done on my 98 Cadillac DeVille just wondering if you have anybody you can recommend I'm in Orange County California
I am trying to replicate this for my W124 and have a couple question. On the rear top does that bolt go all the way through that cup and also on the rear do the lines run out the bottom?
Lol! That sh*t is cheap, but it's time consumming and stressfull asf.. If I were you, I'm starting by saving money and doing a professional investment.
Thank you for being the guy to try something crazy like this 🙏🏼
So far it's working!
@wideband what state are you guys located?
I’m telling you bro just saved everyone dreams and pockets

Thanks dude!
@@wideband iuui
hi nice one thing off doing my s10excap 1989 u make it seem ezy to do. thank u
Thank you for this video. The explanation for the cups being cut at an angle made so much sense.
Too cool. Thanks for showing all this and the tools you used to make this all work. I might have to get another old Mercedes now!

I would love to send some pictures somehow
Great video & tutorial from 1 blue collar to another...simple & clear
& not condescending 👍👍 good
luck
There is a bump stop in your bag so bottoming out is not a problem and also gives you maximum lift.
Awesome vid man. A W126 on bags is going to be one cool ride.
Thanks, part 2 going up tonight.
Can't wait for part 2!! looks like its going work perfectly!
Thank you!
Bro I can't even right now.
I bagged my truck with absolutely no know how. You are miles ahead of where I was at the same time. Wish i had seen this first. That being said I bought from airmax as well.
I got 2 480 compressors
A 5 gallon tank
1/2" air line (mistake)
6 valves, 2 for each front corner, and 2 for the rear
2 2500 bags for the front
2 2600 bags for the rear
Parallel 4 link etc, I wasted so much money.

Excellent fabrication. Making the most of what space is available.
Nice Merc. I like these models.
Talk about a can do attitude way to go bro 👊
So far so good man.. That's quite a nice chunky spacer on that hub too. Keep us in the loop bro.

@@justinjlawson Interesting, I never noticed that on my V70 but next time I see one I'll have to look closer. That is strange.
@@wideband Eagerly awaiting the story on where your V70 is... :)
This is so informative! Makes sense to me
I have a 60s 4WD vehicle with 4 leaf springs and regular shock dampeners. (at 1:28 you see them)
I can't take out the leaf springs so I would replace the shock dampeners with airbags.
does that work as well? there are Monroe air shocks with a similar shape.
anything I need to worry about?
Hell ya im trying to bag my 1989 cutlass cruiser wagon great video
That would be sick!
BRO!, I LIKE HOW U BREAK IT DOWN SO SIMPLE, GONNA NEED U 2 B MY GO2 GUY, PLEASE
Sick! I bought a W126 too in september last year. Got a 380SE and wanna do a stance build as well.
Nice Shop 👍
Awesome step by step! Thank you for doing this !!!
Beautifully done 👍🏼
Can you share the cup heights for upper and lower front and rear ?
Yess I'm trying to do this to my 87 cutty
Sweet! Definitely want a G body someday.
Hey if I put in air suspension do i have to get shorter shocks , also I can't find where you did shocks mod part 2 ,....,...,,,..
Did you have rear SLS? My w126 560sel has rear sls and was wondering if theres anything different i have to do to install the air suspension
I know this is 2 years late but you could use a camber/caster plate instead of the square tubing and it would be much safer
Dude. Good fucking call on just chopping down the length of the top cup.
This is awesome... I'm trying to get this done on my 98 Cadillac DeVille just wondering if you have anybody you can recommend I'm in Orange County California
Thanks for the video
