How is your air ride set up? Been looking at a mapet set for another project

had a little airide-problem saturday night...

ass down, little and then big air leak at the rear air circuit

the next day finding the leak :

hole in the airbag...because 0 clearance with transmission axle... not very smart... even if the mounting process was done by night with headlamp...

pics :


separation of the airbag from the mounting brackets




and re monting with 2 ballon airbag instead of three... when i purchased airbags by the the polish company, i had to choose between 2 ou 3 balloons airbag... wasn't knowing what to choose and price of one was only 20€... so i purchased 4 airbags with 3 balloons and 4 with 2 balloons



hop


mounting on cars :


instead of :


and now much better clearance with transmission axle


difference is : it goes not as high as before... but it goes much lower.. that means better!

found some front coilovers from bmw e36 to maybe go lower at the front



comparison between merco 190 damper and bmw e36 coilover






well... it work's great!

today, I've done a last thing to make the rear go a bit more lower, I removed the bumpstops from the rear shocks

very simple, not even necessary to remove the shock, just the wheel... take a cutter and done










that's it, 15mm lower! (more than half an inch)

and the result after modifying this last 2 weeks : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUoMV...ature=youtu.be


and a few pics










very happy
