Gen 2 XB Air Runner Install.

Ok guys just finished up an air runner set up in a members car..

here are some pics..

Thanks to Freddy at Autofashion USA !

Air runner install in a 2008 scion xb.

THis is the first one in Hawaii

I opted out of using the air runner paddle switches becuase of limited space and the amount of space it needs to be mounted becuase all the hoses that runs in the back of the switches. The only place i could mount it cleanly would have been in the center compartment between the seats. It made no sence to me in mounting it there becuase every time you wana use your air you have to open up the compartment.. IMO i rather have it with easy acces..

I am using a manifold valve setup from UAS.. choose these becuase it eliminates that bulky valves and all the fittings.. and so i could achive a very clean install.. the cost on the mainfolds actually come out cheaper than using those reg valves by the time you add in all the fittings you need.

The setup will be mounted on a custom frame that will use existing holes on the rear of the XB..

Here is the Tank, Comp and Manifold valve, and water trap. IF your going to attempt to this this set up using valves you will have to add a check valve after the water trap.. why after the water trap? just in case the water trap starts to leak the check valve will hold the air in the tank.







I used the Stock holes that were used for the tow hooks..



Installed and wired and works!







The rear..
before



SHocks are just a little shorter..




Rear Bags... Note top mounting bolt need to be cut.. air runner made it to long.. also lower mound bolts do not tighten supper tight.. AS instructiosn says only tillt he lock washer lays flat..







Installed



Fronts.





Installed and air hose ran and working



here it is guys!!! Done and one owner!



























Over all install was easy.. when i compare it to UAS or any other system.. Ai runner is the easiest to install and rides way better!!!

Also the Kenstyle is is being replaced with a Five Axis kit right now.. Kenstyle doesnt give that slammed look..

Awesome install Marshall. I cant wait to see the five axis lip kit on because Ive been wanting to see the RS5 with the five axis lip and bomex lip. The rims are different for sure though. Cant wait to see it!
