Air on a JZS147?? whats the best way?

[shawley]

So i've done lots of reasearch on bagging trucks and helped my friends put their s10's on bags and done the wireing and such

but what is the best option for putting a jzs147 aristo/gs300 on air ride?

like would it be the air ride shockwave? or a more custom set-up or what?

anyone else have their gs's on air?

what are the best options?

or should i just stick to coilovers?

If you want air and dont want to sink alot of money, I would recommend you use air cylinders and use 8 valves.Four for the front and four for the back, that way the car will have equeal pressure at all four corners..run 3/8 valves and lines and your car will ride good and wont cost anywhere near 3k.Now if you dont want to ride on air the Tein CS coilovers are the best bang for the IMO.Ive had both on my car so Im speaking from experiance..Hope this helps.;)

that car looks sick, mine has 18's on it, but the rears are 12inch wide, so i'm gona have to figure out how to tuck them

who sells the air cylinders or where could i get them, so far i've order lots of air ride stuff, i had 1/2 the stuff to bag my s10, then it got stolen and not recovered, so i just sold the air ride stuff, and yea i was thinking 3/8 valves and 8 valves, i'm not worried about how fast it lifts and lowers, my budds running 1/2 inch valves on his s10blazer and it just slams hard and lifts hard, and i don't want it to go that fast.

anyone have some online shops for vip cars that sell air? only online shops i know of are suicidedoors.com for mini trucks and airridetech.com and they have nothing listed

I have built mounts to go on factory shocks or aftermarket ones. The ride is almost like stock, maybe a hair stiffer.
