for sure, definitely pros and cons to air ride. I daily drove my integra bagged for about 2 years and luckily only got stranded once! I had manual PSI gauges and one of the gauge hoses blew and dropped a corner. Luckily my buddy was with me and I made him hold him thumb wrapped tighly around the hose all the way home just constantly hitting the up switch to keep it driveable lol

Now that is some bs. I would be livid if that happened to me, especially if a girls was in the car.

I was 18, cheap / broke and couldn't afford digital gauges. That is the only way to go, running hard lines to manual gauges inside is a pain and the risk of it taking down the system just makes it worse.

Honestly with a good install you have nothing to worry about if you use the right stuff and be careful where you route your airline. The systems can be solid and almost bulletproof but no matter what you are trying to contain air throughout a circulated system with the weight of a vehicle trying to force it out, there is always a possibility that a random problem could pop up

I can only imagine how hard it was to run solid lines to the interior. That would a complete PITA.

I am really close to purchasing the pedders rear coils but I would like to install helper bags at the same time that I install the coils so I dont have to pull the suspension apart twice I was wondering if you could help me out by getting a couple measurements for me?

"We will need the inside diameter of the spring and total amount of available height with the springs installed and the weight of the vehicle on the springs"
This is what an airlift rep sent me after I asked him what helper bags I'd need. Do you think if you have some spare time one day you could get those measurements for me?

Email Pedders and tell them you want a set of their coils under the condition they get you those measurements. They should do it.
