We're not here to make enemies, but we don't feel it's right to not give people all the facts. May as well call a spade a spade, right?

It's in everyoness best interests to know the most about the product they are purchasing. We think AirRex struts are excellent and very well made. However, the aforementioned points I discussed are things that everyone should know before making a purchase of this size.

I don't have air for my frs but i do have it on my GS300. I went with airrunner TC5 and accuair e-level. Rides like a dream and with the accair the height is on the money. I just wish airrunner had the TC5 series for the frs.

I'm running Airlift with the Autopilot V2 management and I love it. Very user friendly interface and easy to view and adjust bag pressures in a pinch, and the presets allow a multitude of ride settings (aired up, down , etc.) Bags themselves are nice and very thick rubber casing. One of the cheaper kits too I believe.

Glad you're happy with your kit!

Are you using the AirLift struts as well?

"EVERYTHING is included with the combo kits: front air struts, rear air springs and tuned shocks as well as in-cockpit control system."

Yes

Air cups are very nice, but the cost is the prohibiting factor. They can cost as much as (or often more!) than an air ride setup.

Interesting, I can honestly say that I've yet to use their AMS. We've always used the e-level or the v2 on our end. Glad to hear you love it though!

This is awesome, thanks so much for all the input. Might I ask where the best place to order the entire kit (struts, and management) as a whole package from? Speed Element looks reputable. I'd be trying to find somewhere where it's on sale and I can get everything I need in one easy shipment. I'm thinking of going AirLift with the Autopilot v2 management. I think that comes in one package somewhere.
