air shocks lowering help me PLZ??? I got some longtube headers installed and I only have about 2 and a half inches of clearence yet I want to lower and raise my car when I want to. I would love to lower it with a push of a button and raise it back up for dips and speed bumps
I talked to a guy I know and he said dont get any kind of adjustable air lift, he said it weighed a lot and it would break real quick. I need as much information on this topic as possible if yall know a company thats good or have done this talk to me about it

A lot and too mch. Remember, the listed products do bot come with compressors or controls. Look more around the site and you'll see what I mean. It looks to cost over $2G.

Not the air lift system, but I have Gabriel air
shocks in the rear, that I use to put about
1/2" - 3/4" of lift on the back for a proper
stance after my Hotchkiss install. This was
like $49 at AutoZone. Not what you were
after, but an option esp. if your scrape-point
is mid-body or rearward. Many lowering springs
sets seem to make the rear end too low for my
liking.
I would be very suspicious of those air spring
systems both for longevity and for handling
performance.
