As air bag suspension becomes more and more popular in pulling several guys and companys are creating their own set up.
So heres my question who is starting to out run the rest of the pack who's doing the best job for the cheapest money?? |

Doing it yourself would be the cheapest if you feel comfortable doing it. Enough pictures floating around to be able to copy whatever setup you like. |

There are several kits and setups available and each one has its pros and cons. The kits that we build we like to build each one per customer specs and not just a one size fits all. The biggest problem with any kit is the parts really add up in the end for a good quality setup. You can give me a call sometime if you have any questions. 812-779-6385 |

What is the advantage (if any) of the air bag over a coilover? |

idk if there is a advantage to airbags versus coil overs or not but definitely a advantage over ridged front axles a airbag to me would absorb more shock than a coil over now thats just my opinion i have no science to back it up just seems right in my head. Not only that but go look at you top 5 pro stocks and i bet they have air bag suspenision but hey who knows thats why i was wanting everyone elses .02 |

I'd be interested to hear the advantages also. Outside of potentially saving a spindle and helping salvage a poor setup during a run I don't see a great deal of advantage to them on the track. Would be easier on the things driving/being towed around uneven terrain in the pits also I guess |

Well I definitely think that some type of suspension helps on the track taking some of the down force out when your front tires hit therefore helping keeping the load on the back tires. Once again I’m no scientist but I do think it helps a decent run be good and a bad run be decent not only that but it has to be easier on your equipment when you do have a bad run |
