#25586, "RE: Air Struts. Anyone know a damn thing?" In response to In response to 13
Originally posted by widebodyeclipse been runnin them for about 4 years. i have had about 4 different set ups on the car. first dont buy anything fro cain, owner of eai. hes kind of an arrogant dick. contact aim industries, they have been in the air ride ind for quite some time and they make kits for just about everything. you do want 4 corner control so it doesnt ride like a boat. also they sell the accumulators, acts as a shock absorber, helps soften the ride. also get the electric valves much faster and easier to mess with. call aim and they will set u up with some good advice. dont buy the cheap shit, trust me it will bite you in the ass. oh yeah spend the extra money on a 100 % duty cycle compressor. here in the midwest playin with the switches in the summer caused the smaller ones to shut down. not good. hope this helps
I disagree with going with aim. I have had one friend not get half his shit from them and another one has their air struts and 3 out of 4 of them now leak (1-2 years old) and they aren't leaking through any of the fittings or lines, we've checked multiple times. The valves they also sold him kept breakin a plastic washer/spacer (or some kind of plastic piece inside). He had a metal piece machined to replace in each of 4 valves (3-way valves) and they still did the same thing.
