nice set-up there iceboxx, will def let you know. thanks for those pics EZ cause that helps clear up a lot about that system.
Every site that sells the accuair assembly just shows the block, next to the link for the accuair controller that is an extra $400-500 making the control system next to 1G...a little out of my price range.
I might go with the one in my original post so we have some feedback on those systems.
no for real its not hella fast like 1/2 lines but fast enough for me dont want to spill my coffee. Airing out is a lil slow but it don’t bother me any.
all in all its great love it still.

ok, so i have long drooled over the aiir ride xb'x out there and would love to have a setup! but it would be my 1st time installing any type of system of this magnitude. i am mildly maechanical, and if i have instructions i can almost do any ting. but my kryptonyte is electrical stuff. how much elecrical wiring is involved in the system that you quoted?
i am doing my homework as we speak, but it helps to get the opinion from some1 who has done this b4!
if you don't want to worry about the electrical side of it you could always do manual valves, they are a bit slower but you got no wires to worry about at all.
^^^^ thats what i got so the only wires i had to hook up was the compressor.
i got the airrunner set up. is slow but if u want to go up super fast just get hydross

by the way i might sell my air suspension
You're thinking about selling the airrunner? Please let me know if you do!
I still have the old 1/4" line manual controller from my '93 Toyota I built about 11 years ago. It was slow, but that is THE old school setup. Thinking of bagging my b this coming spring and I am considering using the manual controls for old times sake.
I have the jdm Air bomber / Air Runner setup
here's what my kit basically looks like
it has the manual switches. It's slow but hey it works so i'm happy with it.
here's a crappy video we did back in may or june right after me and gothbox got finished installing everything. its a dark video but you can get the general idea of how the air bomber / Air runner kit works YouTube - Big hungry Air Ride up and down jdm Air Bomber air runner
so is there any certain brand for setups that most people reccomened? whats the average price usally run? i got in touch with cool cars up in louisville ky and it was going to be like 1865 for •1- ViAir 280 Compressor
•1- 5 Gallon Multiport Long Tank
•8- 1 way 3/8" Fast Valves
•1- 150psi. Pressure Switch
•1- 10 Switch Prewired Box
•1- Single Needle Pressure Gauge
•All Fittings
•60ft. Air Line
•Front & Rear Struts
but id like to have like 2 450 compressers,waters traps, maybe a 10gallon tank but i could deal with a 5gallon for a while,and i want some gauges with 2 needles inside and 1/2 up 3/8s down what do u think? im just now learning about this
