89-98 Suzuki Sidekick Air Lift 1000

November 25th, 2009

So we have all heard of the Air Lift 1000, for whatever vehicle, as they have them for almost everything. I just wanted to share another successful story. I installed one on my neighbors 92 Suzuki Sidekick. The kit added alot of towing ability to the vehicle, which is nice as my neighbor haul a small trailer occasionally. She said it handles alot better with the bags, and she likes how the rear bumper doesn’t sit so low now. The kit was less than $100, and the install took me about half an hour. And the best part is it came with a lifetime warranty, so I really had nothing to worry about. Well worth the time and money.

04-08 Nissan Titan Rear Suspension To Soft For Heavy Loads Helper Bag Kit

November 21st, 2009

If you have a 04-08 Nissan Titan, and just aren’t happy with the payload, and the way it squats down in the rear alot under load, I have a solution to tell you about. The Titan is meant to have a softer suspension as it is kind of a luxury truck, and its only a half ton. One solution to this payload problem would be to add an extra leaf spring. But then your suspension will be stiff all the time. What if you want to have a nice smooth riding truck when your not hauling anything, but then be able to increase your load by 2000lbs when needed. Well you can, the solution is a simple helper air bag system which will go from the top of your leaf springs to the frame. When filled the bag will make the rear stiffer and firmer for heavy loads, but when the air in the bags is reduced the ride becomes smooth. So if you want to be able to haul that extra load, and be able to enjoy your factory ride as well, this kit is a good choice for you. For the cheapest price, click below.

90-99 Looking To Improve The Ride and Handling Of Your Subaru Legacy

November 15th, 2009

If your legecy handles poorly and rides rough, it might be time to replace and/or upgrade your struts. A strut is a form of suspension that has a coil around it to support the weight of the vehicle. The strut acts as a shock absorber. When a strut becomes worn out, it becomes soft and fails to absorb impact the way it should, causing your vehicle to ride rough, bumpy, or loose. The handling will also be directly affected, as the vehicle will have alot of sway. 

 

This was the problem with my 95 Subura Legacy. Struts can get very expensive, it is not hard to spend $1000. There are many good options out there. If you check around online, you can usually get alot better deal than when going into a shop. Then you can just bring the struts and your Legacy to a shop and have them put them on. Or you can install them yourself, if you have some tools and some time. They are a pretty easy and quick install. 

 

But I bought my struts online, and installed them myself. It took me a few hours to install with the help of one of my friends, and we took our time. My 1995 Legacy handled and rode like new after the install. I was thrilled, it was well worth the money.

How to fix Lexus LS400 Air Bag Suspension

July 21st, 2009

So you need to know how to fix your Lexus LS400 air suspension problem. Well depending on what problem you are experiencing, I might be able to share some cheap fixes, and I’ll tell you about a way to avoid all your air suspension problems, in the future. But first of all what problem are you experiencing? One of the more common problems with these cars, is that your air suspension lowers itself when parked. So that when your park your car for the night, by the time you wake up for work it will be lowered down, but as soon as you start the car, it will raise back up. This is very common and is caused by a leak somewere in your air suspension. The reason it only happens while your car is parked, is because while its running it is pumping air into your system. Another common problem is the air system can grow soft. Sometimes the car will just remain low or high. Now that you have heard some of the air suspension problems, lets talk about solutions.

Lincoln Navigator Air Suspension Not Working

July 19th, 2009

If your 98 lincoln navigator air suspension is not working, it could be one a few problems. If one corner of your vehicle is not airing up, or is not airing up properly, it could be a sensor not functioning correctly. It could also be the seals on the airbags, if one of your bags will not air up. These seals just wear out overtime. Often these seal problems will start when the vehicle is exposed to cold weather, as the seals begin to contract. This is not a big issue as the seals are only around $20, but it is a hassle to replace them. Read on for more. Read more…

Air Bag Problems with Continental

July 18th, 2009

Recently I have been having problems with my 1996 Lincoln Continental. This was its first and only problem yet, since I bought it nine years ago. The rear air bags were starting to act up. Sometimes they would feel really stiff, but more often they would feel very low on air and bouncy. I brought it to my mechanic, and of course the first time I tried to show him, it worked fine. But I brought it back again while it was having the problem. He quoted me $2300 to repair the system, and told me about another air suspension system solution. This solution got my attention. It was a kit that would replace all the air bags with coil springs and struts. I thought, of course thats a great idea, completely eliminate all air suspension problems, forever. Then he told me he could put this coil spring conversion kit on for only $750, including parts and labor. My mechanic assured me it was a great system, and that he had just installed one on a Ford Explorer just a week before. I was thrilled, that I could have a simple coil spring system, and avoid all my air system nightmares. I proceeded to order my conversion kit through this web site, Strut Masters, where I found the best price and awesome customer service.

Some Lincoln Mark VIII Suspension Problems

July 15th, 2009

I have had my Lincoln Mark VIII for five years. I loved it, it was a very comfortable car and its 32 valve 4.6L always got me were I needed to go, quickly. But recently my air ride suspension system has been giving me some trouble.

The suspension started out feeling a little soft and bouncy. Before I knew it the rear of my car was lowered all the way down. Sometimes the bags would partially re inflate, but they would soon go down.

Anyway I believed it was growing into a hazard. I took it to my local shop, but they told me that it was going to be around $1500 to repair. However my mechanic told me about a solution that made it much easier and cheaper to repair.
