    First I would ask, why do you want to put air shocks on your ride? Not a good idea IMO.
    If your springs are sagged, re-arc or replace them instead.  :2cents:

    Scott I just thought it would be a cheaper way to lift an inch or two. $100 vs $250

    The shock bracket was never designed to support the weight of the car. That's why it's not a good idea.  :wave:
