Have you considered air-ride?


Lowering A Wagon - Jmountney1 - 03-17-2010

i was thinking of a relatively cheap air ride set up.


i know nothing a bought air ride but im pritty sher this will work (and be hella cheap :D )

First you go by 4 of the bag over strut bags there relatively cheap (i think $100ish each)

then you plum the to fronts together and the to rears together using steel braided air line or (what ever you use for air ride) and you use 2 valves one under the hood for the front bags and one in the hatch for the rear bags. you would simply hook up to shop air to go up and open the valve to go down. :ph34r: :) :ph34r:


assuming once you find a height you like you would leave it alone. lol



this would cut all the big expenses that would come with air ride. (compressor all the crazy valves and controls)

other thing you would have to consider is struts.


i mean i drove my zx3 with ground control coil over struts for 50k on my factory struts. and i had the adjusters out so it sat crazy low.

now it did ride vary vary bouncy and stiff but it did the job.


thats just my $0.02 B)
