Has anyone used just an airbag Not an airbag inside a spring? Does anyone know of anyone selling such a kit?

blown66beaumont Mar 6th, 05, 7:40 PM search for airridetechnoligies.com kid Mar 21st, 05, 8:52 AM sorry for the late reply, you can use firestone #9002 bags. Just cut a 5" diam. plate out of 3/16" plate steel for the top and bottom of bag (4 total). Drill 2 holes in top plate, 1 for the bag mount hole, & 1 for the air line, and 1 hole (centered) in bottom plate for the bag mount hole, ( I cant remember if there are 1 or 2 mounting bosses in the top of bag). You can use your bag for the pattern. Weld the top plate to the top spring perch (tack 4 places). The rest of the install is a simple bolt in. Easiest install I have ever done. ASB Mar 21st, 05, 3:57 PM Thanks for the info. Is it possable to make this a total bolt in setup (no welds ) I want to be able to remove this later & put back to stock. kid Mar 21st, 05, 5:19 PM if you just tack weld the top plates, you can later cut the tacks to remove the steel plates. I don't think there is a way to "bolt" the top plate in. Bottom line is, would not be a big deal to go back stock 1offwizard Mar 22nd, 05, 4:33 PM Kid......do you have pics? I am getting ready to bag my droptop....gonna try to stuff 22's in the rear. Hopefully the bows won't be in the way so I can lay it out good. kid Mar 23rd, 05, 9:29 PM 1offwizard...Sorry, i don't have any pics. i did the instl. 2 years ago.. Next time I have the car on the lift I could take a pic, but that wont do you any good for now. 1offwizard Mar 23rd, 05, 10:00 PM I was just wanting a side shot to see how low yours is aired out. Not a pic of the bag install, thats not a problem for me. kid Mar 25th, 05, 9:07 PM I will get you a pic in the morning, where do I send it? 1offwizard Mar 26th, 05, 11:56 AM send it to jasonhancock@billetaccessoriesdirect.com . Thanks, I can't wait to see it. kid Mar 26th, 05, 7:18 PM 1offwizard, you have mail ssvelle65 Mar 31st, 05, 10:00 PM '65 bagged (http://www.ridetech.com/projectview.asp?ID=12052&source=KnownProject) just get the rear kit from air ride... its fully bolt in and no welding and can put your springs back in within an hour. ASB Apr 4th, 05, 6:07 AM I found air ride but never found a kit for the rear of a Chevelle? Kid ,could you send me a picture also. Thanks all. E34M5 Apr 5th, 05, 7:01 PM ASB : The kit you're looking for is Air Ride Technologies part number ARR20800 At the time being I'm currently bagging my 66 Chevelle... I bought the ARR20800-LUCA and the SKW1018-LUCA kits, and the RidePro 4000e. The kits includes the upper and lower control arms aswell (LUCA = Lower and Upper Control Arms)... I hope to be finished next week... :beers: If you're serious in bagging your ride, I suggest you call Air Ride (www.ridetech.com) and ask for B.J. Elmore (very helpfull dude). | ||
