shomeda- Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Anyone running the Air Lift Coil Spring Leveling Kit??, I am looking to get one.. I just have a couple concerns. I am running H&R's and wondering if their kit will fit.. They did their testing with stock springs, so is the inside diameter of the H&R's same as stock?? If so I am GTG, if not, they said they can give me a custom application to fit?!?! If anyone has experience, please chime in!!! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Just ordered mine. I bought kit 80754 via recommendation from Josh from airlift. The inside diameter of my stock and eibachs are the same. My height with eibachs is 7.5 inches, your probably 6.5 with H&Rs. The bags are about 5.5. Josh explained they push out in order to limit how much the coils can compress. I will paste his entire email below regarding the kit. Paul, We have a bag that will fit in there for you the part number is 80754 keep in mind this kit is not designed for you vehicle so the kit will have (2) 2 in spacers that you will not use it will also have a thinner spacer that you will put on the side of the bag that has the air line is coming out of. The air bag measurements are 3.44x5.5 keep in mind these do not push up and down they squeeze out in between the coils to create a stiffer spring, hopefully these work out well for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One more question, how are you planning on inflating them?? are you installing a compressor?? or just manually inflating them?? Have you thought about where your going to run you air lines??? any insight you might have would be appreciated.... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shomeda- Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Paul, Just to clarify, your using them in the rear correct?? Also, I don't fully understand the use of the side spacers, what use would they have on the side??

shomeda- Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Thanks Chris!!! I dident even think to go "over there" and look!!! Appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think his use of the word "side" is misleading. He meant "top" as that is were the air line is. I think that little top spacer just protects the air outlet. I had planned on routing their fitting to the trunk in the spare tire area. Just going to use a hand pump on track days.

darreli Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 60821 is the part number from Airlift. To be honest I completely forgot about these since they didnt seem to help me last year. I think with the new found power they might really work. I'm going to be working on pressures for these over my next and last couple times to the track this year. I NEED AN 11!!

Paulford8 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Interesting Darrell. I talked to Josh JoshS@airliftcompany.com and he said they didnt have a kit for our cars but 80754 was the best fit at 3.44 x 5.5. Hopefully it is correct as I have already ordered it.

darreli Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Spoke to them on the phone last week..was hoping to get them to entertain the idea of a front strut...easy enough to get the rears. Just need to measure the shock at ride height, extended and compressed..and match it up to the lengths available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 If somebody runs finds/install a shock to help the rear post up the info! I think the drag bag will help a lot, and I look forward to testing. That said the shock plays a huge role, and may have as much if not more effect on launch traction.

Paulford8 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I may return mine and get the part number darreli posted. The part number they gave me is indeed just over 3.4 inches in width and it doesnt expand. So I had told the guy my coils were 3.5 inches ID, well the 80754 kit doesnt really press into the coils. I thought they would expand a bit once inflated but the really dont... Just an FYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
