: Airbags - 1 or 2 ?

For those of you running airbags in the rear springs. Do you run them in both sides, or just the RR?

Which would be better, and why?

Most people run 2.

I just run 1.

The primary goal for better launching is to have the passenger side X psi higher than the driver's side. Since I have no driver's side airbag, I just set my passenger side airbag.

For street use, two works good. You can adjust the pressure to level a load. For strip use, only one is needed.

Hey Matt, I have both but only adjust the passenger side. You got that thing ready to run yet? Let's go make some passes up at Denton.

Later,

Frank, it's almost there!

The interior is back together now. I have a sway rear sway bar waiting at my house for me, and I'm picking up the airbag tomorrow at Texas Speed (badass shop here in Lubbock).

I am coming home next weekend to ship my bench seat (or try to at least), and put on the sway bar and stuff. So I should be able to run pretty soon. Albeit, it will be on street tires :mad: .
I still dont have any slicks.
I'll keep you updated. I want to see you run on the bottle :cool:

i run two, i ran only one at one time, but one side had a real stiff ride and the other didn't..so i just stuck with two and adjusted one when i got to the strip. i picked up .2 in the 1\8. good luck!
