How Does a Complete Air Ride Kit Work?
A complete air ride kit consists of two main portions. The management system and the suspension itself. The portion of your setup that builds air pressure and controls the air flow to your bags features a compressor, air tank, manifold (valves) and a controller. Air lines connect these components to your bags so when you hit a button on your controller, the vehicle moves up and down. Overall air ride kits are pretty simple in the way they operate and if the need arises, they're easy to troubleshoot. The complete kits on this page consist of the front and rear suspension, control system of your choice, and everything else you need to have a complete setup installed on your vehicle.
Are Air Ride Kits Hard to Install?
Installing an air ride kit might seem tough but it's actually pretty simple once you break it down into sections. If you are mechanically inclined, installing an air ride kit is simply a suspension install with a little extra wiring. Most of our customers install their setups by themselves but a reputable shop is always a good idea if you're not comfortable installing by yourself. We always recommend starting out by installing your management first, running your air lines to each corner of your vehicle and then installing the suspension last. Installing your air ride kit in this manner will allow you to continue driving your car throughout the install until you're ready to put the final piece in (the suspension itself). Connect the air lines to each bag and you've successfully installed a complete setup on your vehicle!

What is the Difference Between Height Based and Pressure Based Air Ride Kits?
The age old question: what's the difference between height and pressure based air ride systems? Simply put, in the world of air ride kits, height and pressure do not equal the same thing. One system will reach its preset height every time (fender to ground clearance) and the other system will reach its preset pressure every time (the pressure inside of your air bags). Need a visual? Check out the video for more details and a demonstration comparing how height and pressure based air management systems react on our Nissan Skyline R32.
