    Its the bounciest ride ever....I dont think it matters where they are.... Not really sporty...more blingy and flashy but if done right it defenitely looks sweet.

    I just built my own setup. Bought most of the parts from Standens and Greg's. You'd have to get a little creative on a strut setup...no clue if anyone makes a kit for a J-Body though.

    My Suburban rode like a Caddy. The lower you go, the softer it gets. Think about it, less air pressure = softer ride....well unless the frame hits while you're cruising. The only thing you had to watch out for was t-ing between 2 bags. I had my front and rear independant, but each end was t'd off. So when I'd take a corner, it would load the outside bag and compress it. That air would travel in to the inside bag and inflate it more causing more body roll. Top this off with the fact that I had to pull the sway bar to keep it form binding and you've got one scary vehicle to take corners at speed in. Even better when it was aired out and the sidewall of the tires would hit the fenders, hehe.

    But I have to admit, that was likely the most fun vehicle I ever owned.
