My air ride project isn't driving yet so I can't comment on the ride part, but I can add a few things... I'm running the Ridetech stuff, compressor, controller, bags, and adjustable shocks. I also upgraded to the height position sensors at all four corners.

It's not hard to figure the system out but there is no denying it is a lot of stuff. Where you package the tank and compressors, air lines to each corner, wiring to each corner...you wind up with a bunch of potential failure points. Its 100% how much effort you put into the install.

I also built bump stops into the frame on mine so that even when it's completely aired out (or I have a bag/line failure) the vehicle still rolls and I can ease off the road or on to a trailer/wrecker. Of course that means my project won't sit all the way on the ground at shows but thats a trade off I was willing to accept over being stranded.

Mine isn't even on the road yet and I'm not sure I would do it again... just strictly because of the complexity of the system.
