thats because most setups need custom upper control arms to clear the air bags.
how low does the back of your wagon go? i'm doing my wagon soon, would be keen to see your setup.

ahh right,
ill see if can take some pic's after work looks hot though. its about 5cm off the ground from memory and would go up to 30cm good bit of travel even with load, (best mod ever) so, is the setup different on the comformadores fount not requiring mods like the falcons?? |

Yep, they've got more space for the airbag.
I've got bags in the front of mine, and they go very close to the upper control arm mounts. AU upper control arms have more space then e-series ones, so i'm not sure how much better, but its generally the main issue.

ok hears a few pic's,
i have two compressors running one tank, to reduce fill time, all the stuff is jammed up the rear bar quite neatly... Attachment: bumper.bmp [ 368.1 KiB | Viewed 2198 times ] Attachment: 1111111.bmp [ 292.9 KiB | Viewed 2219 times ] you can see the tank through the bar Attachment: compress.bmp [ 403.81 KiB | Viewed 2209 times ] Attachment: bag.bmp [ 423.83 KiB | Viewed 2197 times ] |

this doesn't help much as you can't see the upper control arm :/

the photo of the bag under yours.. is that directly under the chassis rail, or offset?

are your compressors loud and how long does it take for the tank to fill?? |

interesting, i guess thats why you've got the single below.
different to how i was going to set mine up. but handy to have! i've only got a single compressor, and yep its pretty loud. not sure how long it takes to fill.. mine switches on when tank pressure goes below 120 i think, turns off ~ 180psi, takes maybe 1-2 mins normally. generally lifting all 4 corners off the ground will trigger the compressor.

By the looks of it you have reduced the number of leaf springs?
I presume you have left the main one in for diff location reasons. How do you find the day to day ride quality and handling? Cheers BenJ

benj..
got a few taken out.. it feels a bit bouncy at first lol but its stiff, as far as body roll. pulls around corners miles better than stock. can depend on psi though... |
