I've done a couple of my trucks, but as I'm fixing my smashed MM, I'm really thinking I'd like to bag it. Anyone done it? Wondering if there is any tried and tested bag setups. I always wondered about running stock rears and just taking out the factory solenoids and somehow adapting a larger bore aftermarket piece. Thanks in advance.
 
None that I know of...a few bagged towncars and cv's I've seen though. Seth from Twisted Minis built a bagged CV with a jag independent rear.

The front is pretty simple. It would do you good to put normal bags in the rear.

What does bagging it mean :confused:

It means to install Air suspension in place of the stock springs.

BTW, do these chassis lay on the frame? I've seen a CV with the stock rear suspension busted and it was way down.

Thanks :beer:
 
Are all MM air in the rear? I haven't even had mine on a hoist yet.
 
Anyone ever replace the OEM system with an after market kit from Air Ride Technologies? http://www.ridetech.com/shop/

Seth HIGHLY modified that CV to lay out, and you will have to as well. You can cup the front and sleve the back (kinda like they are now) but im unsure how low you can get before the watts and the arms will bind.

Yeah....same with the town car I've seen. I can't remember where I found it now, but that this is nasty. I'll have to search for it
 
I had to do a double take... I thought it was going to take a really big bag to put a whole Marauder in it.
 
I guess thinking about how my crew dually rides...... I would get a super smooth ride (done properly) and the ability to drop it when parked. I guess you have to love that stuff. Not saying I'm going to. Just asking around because I'm gonna have most of this car apart and back together so now would be the time.
 
I was thinking of doing it to my car a year ago or so. I called Air Ride Technologies and spoke with a tech there. there is no kit available (at that time) but they said they would work with me to come up with a 'tuner' option. I never did it. I already had enough custom stuff on the car and didnt want one more thing.

But for those who dont think it is worth it....... Think again. There have been demonstrations with professional drivers that drove a car with regular suspension on a performance course, swap to air ride, and drove that same car again. The comments were 100% positive. Plus it facilitates a lower ride height with the ability to raise to go over big speed bumps etc.
