Is Air Ride Technologies Air bar suspenison laid out well? Specificly the 1st gen f body.

Is is going to handle well?

Short answer...what do want to do? For a track whore than absolutely not, for a daily pounder sure/weekend cruiser, it will work fine.

How does the fatman Wonderbar compare to the air bar?

Same theory, most of the bolt on replacement "kits" are full of compromise for fitment.

Of the bolt in style, which would be best? I am building a vert, and am affraid to cut up the body, and have problems with the structural integrety.

Wait for Mean69 to publicy offer his 3-link, minimal surgery required and by far the best thing available, second place would be the DSE 4-link I guess.

Good luck trying to get a straight answer out of the manufacturer.

Go read the thread on the G28 Airbar install. It compared well to a complete GW package, but I don't think it will keep up with a good 3 link or DSE's 4 link.
My thoughts were to bolt them on my 3 link in place of coilovers and experiment. I would also do the same with the DSE 4 link before I used the Airbar.

Yeah, seeing the G/28 results with the Air bar got me thinking! I planed on going with Aluma Star coilovers in the front and DSE Minitub leaf reay, but liked the ideal of bags. Some people suggest not mini tubbing a vert too, so I started thinking, and the Bags would not cost too much more. Not to mention our driveway is steep
