suspension with height control

Featured Replies

Hello

could someone put the link for suspension with height control. I have a GL with carb and i will like to change the old suspension.

Is it posible to change?

yes you can change the air suspension ,my rear air struts went out first , then my fronts, [ leaks] in my opinion change them ALL , it will make it alittle rougher riding but aleast you can drive it , mine is a 88 awd a/t turbo wagon

I have regular suspension. I would like to change it to air suspension with small addition - strings. I will change the lover side of struts and put strings on and fill them with air. Is it possible to do something like that?

If I understand correctly, you want to put metal springs on to the air suspension struts? This is difficult because the struts do not have any mount surfaces for the springs.

I know that there is no mount surfaces. I will do it. I have 8 pieces of air suspension struts (4 back and 4 front). Here in our country the GL costs aprox 50 dollars in your currency. I bought 4 and i will dismantle all of them. I get a new machine - only 67.000 kilometers driven(40000 miles) in one of them - it is already in my car.

Nebi, it appears that some of these guys mis understand you intentions.

Most people over here take the air suspension off and replace

it with normal springs and shocks/struts.

 

You may want to look at this post for more info
