Does anyone make a complete airbag
set-up using schrader valves? I'm looking for an alternative to springs, etc. because I want the ride height where I like it, but I don't want to spend a fortune and I'm not looking for going "up and down" like with a compressor, etc. I want the adjustability though. I looked on suicide doors, but I'm lost on what would work on my '68. Any ideas? Thanks

Re: Does anyone make a complete airbag
instead of buying a tank, compressor, or valves.
use Scrader valves, two, one for front, one for back. |

Re: Does anyone make a complete airbag
i would recommend using one schrader valve per bag instead of 1 for the front and 1 for the back.
by tieing the two bags together, you will increase your body roll as one bag compresses and sends more air to the other bag. there are a few threads in this forum with more details. |

Re: Does anyone make a complete airbag
When the body leans going around a corner it is called body roll. By tying the two bags together, the air transfer between the two bags compounds the body leaning when going around corners.

Re: Does anyone make a complete airbag
You can pick up all the hardware you need for a place that makes hydro hoses and airline hoses for Semi's that is where I got my schrader valves that are on my truck now it cost me about $50 bucks to get all the stuff i needed for four bags.
