Air Ride Kit F-body What is a good brand to use for bagging my 2000 Z/28? I would like to buy a used kit but it seems new is better on this sort of an item.

Air Ride Technology, I like there rear air spring kits since you can use any shock you want, but the front you're stuck with using their shocks which aren't the best for handling.
So I only have air springs in the rear. For a easy bolt in system A.R.T. is the way to go, but it'll cost you.

Here are the part numbers for Universal Air (800-864-2470):
02-ST-SB-14 Aero Sport (front bag)
01-ST-F (Front Bracket)
02-2500DB-38 (Rear Bag)
CUP (Rear Bracket)
The Aero Sport will slip over your existing shocks and some coil-overs.
With coil-overs you can then play with the spring perch height to allow for the adjustment of spring rates independent of ride height, which can't be done with the Air Ride units.
If you use normal shocks, spacers can be used to get the same effect, but require removal from the car to change. JasonWW has detailed some of this in his air bag thread.
This is the path I am taking, as dragging the car on the SFCs over bumps is getting old fast.
