Just installed my helper bags! :D

[Sam Hamm]

i hate a few of you guys on here. my truck sits so high compared to yalls.

 

[kotalaynframe]

i was going to do this too but i got a good deal on some firestone f9100 so i just replaced the spring with the bags it rides smooth plus i can lift it and lower it when i want and it was a direct fit like if it was made for the hoe

+1 I can has part # please?

I know this is an old post, but these won't effect the ride height will it?

 

[Max]

Completely dependent upon the amount of air in the bags, they usually lift 1/2" with around 5psi in the bags.

 

[89 chevy]

Right....Can you not run any in the bags until you need them?

 

[Max]

I'd keep a few psi in them at all times, makes these trucks ride smoother. I have a nice little resolution for those who wish to keep a firm ride but don't want the added height of helper bags. For towing these are almost essential especially with lowering springs that lack a high spring rate.

 

[89 chevy]

Well, I don't always haul stuff its just once in a great while. What would you do if you were in my shoes? If it will raise it up, then I will just go with out helpers.

Thanks

Good bumpstops and gas shocks.

 

[89 chevy]

What gas shocks would you go with? Part number?

 

[ballsie]

kotalaynframe , Got any pics of your bag setup? How is the ride?

 

[BillBlatt18]

I'm about to order these...So keeping say...2-3psi in them at all times will make the truck ride smoother?

 

[Max]

At least 5psi, which troubles some people on here that want to be low but won't bother you after experiencing the exponentially better comfort in ride.

 

[BillBlatt18]

so i have stock everything including springs and shocks obviously lol, but will this make it sit even higher? i do plan on dropping it in the "near" future when i get some funds (birthday, christmas,etc...) lol

Similar question to above ...

2001 Tahoe completely stock as far as suspension is concerned ...

I have the Firestone kit and am thinking about tackling the install myself. Any pitfalls or experiences you guys can share before I start something I'm not able to finish!

Also, did you guys install the "support" disk on top of the bag?

Thanks guys

 

[YuCanada]

I paid $75 for my kit. I think Bliz did too

Sorry to bring back the dead, but where can I get a kit for 75? I'd like to add one now that I am dropped. Thanks if you see this

 

[lynxnova]

I just bought then for $88 which is the lowest I could find... http://www.streetsideauto.com/search.asp?keywords=airlift+1000
