Air Ride?

Our ‘Air Ride’ option includes the different parts needed to make your car sit as low as possible. This option favours many of our customers, as it achieves the maxiumum drop, without compromising drive height. It prevents your floorpan from fouling obstacles in the road; and other low ride-height worries, such as tyre rubbing and turning radius. Included in this option are: Jawbreaker Shock Towers, Through Rods, MOA430s and Lower Shock Relocators (Link Pin only) . 

The ‘Jawbreaker’ shock towers are designed with an additional gusset, to prevent tower flex. Furthermore, on Ball Joint cars, our towers don’t use the traditional eyelet top mounting point. We have converted this to emmulate a Link Pin tower, which provides a further drop on late vehicles. In all of our Air Ride setups, we utilise Through Rods, to allow the trailing arms to move freely. This also ensures the Air Shocks are able to independantly control the vehicles height, allowing accurate adjustment. 

The ‘MOA430’ is our very own Air Shock design, based on a tapered sleeve bag with an internal piston, similar to a coilover setup. The volume of the bag provides the user with a high lift, whilst the internal piston allows for more control over the lightweight front-end of the Type 1 chassis. These shocks have been personally tried and tested on our own daily-driven cars, and have passed the test of Britain’s uneven road surfaces. 

For early cars utilising the Link Pin suspension setup, you will also recieve a pair of lower shock relocators. This part will move the shock backwards and outwards, to combat sharp shock angle (preventing poor quality ride/impending damage). In addition to this, the change in shock location allows the user to lift the vehcile with less air pressure, providing a comfier ride.
