I have airstruts on the front of my camaro. I love them. They ride better than any other air ride equipped vehicle that I have been in. Mine are from Chassis Tech. I get plenty of lift with them. When I had 20s on my car it layed body kit, with no modifications. Right now I am sitting about 2in off the ground but the 22s are sitting on the fender wells. So that has nothing to do with the air struts their self. Mine have 3/8" ports and 1/2" was avaiable, but I didn't want it that fast.

Chassic Tech aka Aim struts sucks balls. That whole design sucks ass a retard with a thumb in his ass and a pencil in another came up with aim struts.

Not dissing your car it looks good, but aim struts r not the way to go.

Def go have some made. I know alot of fab shops are diong that for alot of vehicles nowadays for around the same prices as buying a set of air struts i believe. But air lift makes some that really lay out and ive heard nothing but good things about those struts.

bump


anyone else have anything?

please...

aim struts are not that bad its a oem strut with the bag mountet over them just like the air lift ones the only diff is that air lift makes their own struts

so what sites got these?, and who would have the best prices?...wish i had a buisness license to check out lowriderdepot.com

air ride technologies air struts look sick, but they're expensive as hell.

built your own airstruts there not hard to do I bought brand new struts then I cut the spring bracket off did some measurement welded the bag bracket on then bolted the bag on... I bought my bags from Universal Air Suspension... they were 205 each and Ived had them for 2 years now... I fanilly blew out a bag because I rewelded the brackets lower then they were and I rub a hole threw the passager bag and the driver side has a mean rub... So I rather pay some to do some custom shit on the front then payin 410 for TWO bags... and I still have the same bags on the rear still riding strong... They are very good bags just very pricey... But they do not get low as I want to go... Keep searchin

UAS aero bags are great, but they wont work on all applications. They wont fit for a honda application. The strut body cannot be over 2.1 inches in diameter and you need about 4 inches of height when collapsed. You should rest the weight of the car on the bag when laid out, so you need to measure properly.

I agree Aim used to use gabriel struts and they were great, but the cheap crap they have now wear out and break way too easily. Seems like they have one strut and regardless of the weight of the car just use that same one piece. They fail and it ends up making you look bad in the customers eyes. Easystreet is good, but they had issues with noisy Mac struts as well. They are supposed to have a new design that should have corrected the problem. Their struts are short so you can get really low with them.

Well I must have one of the good sets then. I have had my camaro bagged for almost 5 yrs now. I like the design of the airstrut (4 a camaro). It was defineatly the best when I got them. Not sure about now though. I haven't really checked on them.

rail it customs. give me a call if you need more info on them, or email is a good contact also, id be happy to answer your questions, i can also set you up with a set if need be.
