air lift 1000 leveling kit

i just got the kit for christmas, its definitely not near as easy as the installation they show on the video. the trailblazer is easy. on our we have to remove the spring and drill a hole in the lower spring cup. i guess i know what ill be doing this weekend. merry christmas nico members.

Is this air ride kit for lowering your ride

[fastpathy35]

no, its made intention is for vehicles that tow or haul and the rear end sags, its to level that sag out. my desire was the same but i also want a stiffer ride for a little better handling. the air bags go inside your springs to assist the suspension.

merry christmas. it's still a simple install that can be done with very basic hand tools.

the instructions will say to install the air lines separate from left to right. i recommend combining the two air lines at a T junction, then routing a single air line to your schrader valve.

there's really no point in running 2 separate air circuits.

They supplied the stuff for it to tie into one line. Its really pointless to have two lines unless you have a utility truck or something with one side heavier. Im sure i can get it done, this is just a new area for me. A learning experience

So i got it all put in. It wS fairly easy with two others help. I ran them into one line as suggested but i found the body roll was horrible. Like my sisters explorer. It scared me. And i realized when i took a turn the air pushed out of the side getting the roll, and moving to the other side to help pick that side up. So i ran them on separate lines. I love it. Yesterday was the first dry day in a while so i got to get some speed up the mountain...handles amazing.
