slammed earlys, lets see them and who's the lowest ?

[young_dubya]

Taken a while to get back on this one.

The guy i spoke to over here was this dude http://airride.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; seemed helpful

He stocks them but they aint cheap :shock: bout £180 a set if i remember right! He also sells adaptors so you can run 1/4" lines giving quicker rise and also making components etc easier to source from within the scene. Ive designed me a full system which inclueds a tank etc recon i can do the whole van for less than £300 as i want to try it before i go for the pro stuff.

I ‘am now working on a full management system
Viair 400c compressor
Twin paddle switches operates front and rear separately
2 gallon tank
¼” airlines
Dot fittings
Monroe Ma789 air shocks Front/Rear Ma 803
On the Monroe Ma803 these have to be primed with air before any weight is put on them as they blow the bags. Speak to Gerry from Northernautoparts for cheaper shipping. Remember this is an air assisted ride, to get you out of trouble and not a full singing and dancing air ride.

Stuart make sure to buy a water trap and pressure switch too.

This quite interests me as I'd love to slam the crap outta mine currently at 63cm through the front wheels. But as I have a bit of a rise on my driveway I currently only have a finger width of clearance on my rear pipes before I scrape them on the tarmac

plus if you are fitting Ma803 on the rear these have to be filled with air before lowering the bus on to its wheels. Remember some air shocks are sided Left and Right.
