No offence Darren. That was the persons first and only post on your forum, with no data to back anything up. So I don't believe it as I would not believe anyone coming here and boosting the same thing on any suspension system. Before you post things like that anywhere, you should at least back up his claims with hard testing. I’m sorry if I came across as a jerk, but these BS claims are just that. Claims.

KD,
Not sure on the limiting strap thing. I'm guessing that his air pressure reading were erratic with the old setup and he wasn't confident with what height the vehicle was riding at and didn't want to top out the shocks.

Mazspeed,
No offense taken. I agree with you, who is to say that this guy in bs'ing us....but I think that goes with any post on any forum. It must all be taken lightly. He is just a random customer that had good things to say about our company and I wanted to share it.

I think anyone claiming something like this who is not a regular poster should provide some kind of proof before posting a silly claim like this, don't you think? Also Darren, and again no offence, but putting that link on this site, the invalidated claims of a 1st time posted customer on what their product can do is a little destructive right?

Thanks for also taking my post as well. I do think you guys make a great product, I was just concerned with random posts with wild clams being taken seriously. Just a pet peeve I guess. Again thanks for not jumping down my throat, when I did it too you.

I would agree but there are more constructive ways to say what was said. I think you would agree to that?

I seriously get tired of people bashing airride....it is was it is if you dont like dont read about it. Simple as that

we hope to change the way people think about airride in the very near future. We have a 69 camaro the will sport very well known front and rear clips with airbags instead of coilovers should be interesting

I agree with mazspeed...one needs to be careful with presenting data that may be unsubstantiated. I guess the reasopn that we didn't question it was because we've seen similar results before from other cars.

Darren...post that link to the G2X data for our Chevelle again.

It wasn't quite as good as the Firebird, only 1.2G, but not bad for a 66 Chevelle on BFG KD street tires.
