We semi trucks have run air ride for years. I've driven over 350, 000 miles and had one issue once. Once. And I routinely have my truck loaded with over 40, 000 pounds. This tech is way more mature than people think.

The only myth I want you to debunk is that it's expensive. Please please please debunk that. Thanks

Something to remember with air, literally every semi uses air bags and brakes and they run everywhere in every imaginable weather conditions literally millions of miles a year across the globe. It’s tried and tested, it’s just a little different from normal suspension setups

A good old chat, Driver to Suspension!

My biggest concerns about air is taking up space in the trunk, installing/setting it up wrong, and unknown limitation that I may not know about. (and cost)

Myth #6: Air bags can’t mimic high spring rates. Oh wait...

My 2018 Lexus IS300 F Sport is on Full Airlift 3P and I daily it everyday for work here in DTLA and use it for Road Trips as far as 400 Miles one way, snow (Big Bear), horrible roads, etc.
.Never had an Issue/Leaks/Pops
.Maintenance literally takes 30 secs and i do it twice a month when cleaning my car

Feels super comfy and can easily clear these deep driveways here in DTLA, if you are debating between coils vs air i would 100% recommend air.

I asked about this question about 3 weeks ago and you guys made a video about it. Big thanks to you guys helping others out and destroying the myth. Now im going to get a set of airrides now and see how that goes! Thanks fitment industries 👍

Go on 30k miles on bags, daily driver, multiple road trips, no issues minus a bad ground that kept blowing fuses. Ran lines through the car instead of under so no worry about debris hitting a line. I have no regrets love my Jetta on bags.

Personally I have the air ride 3h system and I live in buffalo ny and have had no problems with my suspension in the cold. Just gotta wash the salt off and make sure you empty that water trap

[blisscrazy]

Hello...what happened to the fooking stream...I didn’t forget

[tapis]

It’s -30 DAILY out here. Can’t ride air here for sure. RIP

[iamnotme]

Dude. Thank you for this. I'm inheriting a 2005 Chrysler 300c, and I was so afraid of reliability, maintenance, and install issues

[jerryhuerta]

BEST SHORTAND SWEET INFORMATION!! Finally a quick and to the point

[shazbot]

popup instruction manuals are a great idea! I'm gonna steal that...

[Plums]

Just finished my 3P install a few weeks ago. Def can be performance based, I beat on my car a lot and so far so good. Hope to be in the 10s on air this year 👀

[LeJunny]

Only reason I don’t plan on going air is because I had friends who’ve had bad experiences racing with an air lift kit. I race my car heavily! I don’t want to take the risk
