Thought I would ask this here since I couldnt get a complete answer on this on myg37. I was looking into going with an air ride setup but my main concern is for the winter times. I drive my car daily and I am worried the lines or tank will freeze on me during the winter. I live in NJ so average temperature in the morning is in the 20's.

You'll be fine as long as you pick up some tank antifreeze from a local truck stop. The OP said this earlier in the thread... I read all 19 pages and now I'm piecing a kit together lol

One thing that I'm worried about most is, if the bags or the compressor goes out on me while i'm at the store and i'm slammed to the floor. How can I prevent that? I know parts goes out on you sometimes but just wanna know how to get my car home in case it do go out on me. This is the only thing that is keeping me from getting bags on my car.

Methyl Alcohol is your friend.. Put a couple cap fulls in your tank when its empty. Put everything back together, run the compressors. Done.

if you are worried about the compressor going out on you. you can hook up a shrader valve to one of the ports on the tank. that way if for whatever reason your tank is empty while you are at the store (which there is no reason for it to be empty) you can atleast have a tow truck or someone with a portable compressor come fill it up enough for you to lift the car and drive it home

With UAS, when you raise or slam it. Is there a botton to bring it back driving hight without having the e level kit? Or i would hve to mess with the botton til i get the right pressure in each bag? That would suck!

if you use a normal switch box, you can use a 7 switch. which is what i use. it gives you control of front left, front right, both front, back left, back right, both back and then the 7th swtich is whole car. so you can hit the center switch which will lay the car out then you can tap it again in the other direction and bring the whole car back up. if its sitting crooked for some weird reason then yes you will have to tap each corner valve until you are sittin even

I ordered UAS kit and just found out my stock shocks is blown. Do I have to get new shocks or dose UAS come with its own shock?
