Bagged/ Air ride suspension

Okay before everyone tells me off.. i have used the search function but i cant find my answers...

Anyways, i am wondering how hard it is to install (i know alot more then the average joe when it comes to vehicles and i've been raised by a DIY dad) Air ride and any advice previous or current owners have!

I've been looking at this kit
http://bagriders.com/modlab/products...EL-SYSTEM.html

with UAS and Accuair components (i believe these are the most common brands). Im going to be running this as a daily and I know it may be a little of a concern in terms of reliability but shouldn't be a problem with quality fittings etc...

Now the main reason I want to run this (pretty much everyone's reason) is because I want the simplicity of slamming the f@#K! out of it at local events but also being able to get out of my stupid neighborhood with about 12 speed bumps -.-.... with a static setup i obviously dont have the simplicity to adjust with a remote.

Thanks!
Chris

You should be able to, but the best thing to do is to save up so you can do it all at once. Why do all the work twice (and pay the extra labor if you're not doing it yourself)?

That's true and I guess I would just like it ASAP, and I'd be doing it myself so I'd just be losing some hard work but that's always fun

But how long do you think the shocks would last with bags on them?

Ok guys I have a few questions. I Recieved my kit from bagriders this week and trying to mock up my kyb shock and semi mock the rear kit. They are uas bags and looks like uas brackets possibly. So for the front the bottom plate is not slipping all the way down the shock. It is hitting the shock body. Do I just dremmel the hole bigger? Then for the rear kit. The kit I have has a bolt on one bracket and nothing on the other. If I screw the one bracket onto the bag it won't run but the other bracket will rub the bag. Does anyone have any suggestions or have pictures they can post? This is the hardest part I think to my kit. Everything else is plug n play. I am using the auto pilot v2 and comes with a pew built harness.
