www.airride.com
www.masterimagecustoms.com

If you want to find lots of information about bagging then look in trucking magazines. Hydros I would suggest lowrider mags. Both of these have lots of information on this stuff.

The air ride will Lower and raise your car. I like the air bags more thqn hydros because of a lot smoother operation and better ride quality.

even if your car lowers with a touch of a button, i highly doubt it will handle as well as it would with a real suspension lowering - ie springs and shocks

i found a good site where i can order a hydrualic pump kit but i have a few questions i dont understand i hope someone can help me...

heres the site - http://store.gaugemagazine.com/subcatmfgprod.asp?0=263&1=264&2=-1

should i get the 4pump or 2pump? What are the front and rear cylinders/cup for? Will i get the same height in the rear and front? i dont want the back sticking up... also how many batteries do i need for this installation?

one more then what are 3wheels, it was mention somewhere on the site...

A: If this is your first hydraulic set-up you may want to start off with our 2 Pump Street Edition Kit with 8 switches. You will get front, back, side to side pancake, see saw and individual three wheel
What type of kit do I need for 3-wheel?

A: With a 2 pump 8 switch kit you can do 3-wheel around a corner on most vehicles with enough weight in the back. To do standing 3-wheel you need a three-pump kit. This is something that you may want to talk to your installer about. There is always more than one method to do an install and each installer has their own method.


Thanks alot for the help i really appreciate it

My peresonal opinion is BAGS SUCK! They are slow slow slow!!

I have hydros in my truck and it rides better than it did when it was just lowered with springs etc.:D

If you are looking to drive you car Fast and Furious style, Hydros would be the way to go. and when you get there, you can bounce:thumbsup:

If you just want to have the Slammed look at a show or red light and then be able to drive into the 7-11, All you need is a single pump setup. 2 pumps will give you a little more flexability.

PM me if you have anymore questions!
