Default Air Ride Technologies Level Pro System

Hey guys,
Can't find anything on this site. Was wondering if anyone has ever put this kit on 93-02 Fbody. I'm not going for the "Drop-n-Destroy" look, but rather than the performance of it. The ability to tune independently each corner of the car for launch, handling, etc...So I figured I would see if anyone here had it, and could shed some light on the setup, and install....

I have been looking into their systems for some time now. The air strut (ast1015) for the front has adjustable valving. But I think they only offer a typical bag for the rear, with no adjustment for keeping the rear stiff while lowered.
If anyone has experince with an air system I would be interested in how it worked for them also.

Well the system from airridetech is going to cost a pretty penny in just tank/compressor/valves/electronics in the hardware. The bags in the back are just Firestone sleeve bags, 9000's i believe I would have to check in my box of parts here. Those bags are pretty cheap but its the bracket that makes up for it for the rears. Puts you around ~300ish for the rear bags/brackets. The fronts are a whole different monster. That is an airstrut and for the lack of a better explanation has a bag with a shock running through it. Its a QA1 adjustable shock though so a fairly good shock. The fronts are just under $1000 for the set.

Thats the only link that I have bookmarked on this computer that can provide you with a little more insight on the system. Oh, and if you like the old fashioned way of leveling the car as opposed to electronics suicidedoors sells a management kit. 3/8 is the size i'm getting as 1/2 pneumatic line is not friendly to route and bend through any tight area. Hope that information helps.

I was uder the impression that the QA1 was a drag shock, despite being adjustable. They dont have the correct dampaning ablities for auto x
