Whats a good air ride setup on an xtreme front and rear....not too expensive....

xtremedreams · 06-23-2008, 01:43 PM

I plan on coming into some money soon and I want to put a full air ride on my xtreme with no welding or cutting of anything. I dont want to lay frame I just want to be able to drop it at shows and lift it for daily driving. What would be a good set up to run to be able to drop and lift it on command...
what size tank
white size compresor
valves

and what kinda price we looking at with equipment and install cause I dont have the mechanical skills to do it myself.

Thanks

The ART Airbar & Shockwave looks decent
not the cheapest thing though

Not neccesarily. Since he's lookin to just lay kit he could get something like the coolride for the front, but I doubt thats in his price range. It would be a ton cheaper to get over the cutting part and just get the s10 special from SD

id say airbar (no cutting, no hole in bed and doesnt lay frame) and then the SD front special...8 gallon tank, dual viair pack and 6 or 8 valve setup...

no cutting? you say you dont want to lay it out..but that will change...do it right the first time

He's right. I thought about the air bar for about a week, because like you I'm looking to lay kit right now, and nothing more. But I am going to go ahead and get a 5 link in the rear, and do the front how any other truck would be so that when I get fed up w/ the kits, and want to go lower and lay frame I can. It WILL happen once you know you can, i havent even done it and im already thinking about it since im starting to order my parts one by one starting next week until I get everything together.

Also.....1000th post....
