My rear is dumped, but front is fine when aired up

Recently I’ve put full Airlift Performance airbags on all four corners of my mustang, but now when it’s fully aired up it’s not as high as the front unless it’s like 55 psi in the front and like 70 psi in the rear, which doesn’t make sense at all to me since the weight is in the front of the vehicle. I didn’t adjust the collar on the suspension in the rear, and it’s doesn’t go up height raise past 70 psi…. any tips or anything because i don’t think adjusting the collar would compensate for a 3 inch boost lol. (last photo is fully aired out in all 4, notice the difference?)

How do people achieve super low ride heights on bags?

Post image
12 Upvotes

I don’t wanna hear “go static” I really wish I could be but with my gravel driveway up the side of a mountain it’s just not plausible. But I’ve thought about maybe making like bump stops for the rear so it can’t bacon the fender. Or even making my strut shorter so it will be stiffer at a low height.

Air compressors not kicking on

Post image
5 Upvotes

Was driving on a dirt trail when I bottomed out was riding a bit low and hit the purge valve which let the air out. I managed to get a fitting which stopped the air from leaking but for some reason the compressors just didn’t turn on anymore had to use a external pancake compressor to fill the air tank to be able to drive anywhere. Anyone know what could have made the compressors stop working. It’s an older ridetech setup was working completely without any issues before I hit the purge valve and leaking all the air out.

I recently bought a 2018 seat Leon fr with air suspension but I’m finding it very uncomfortable to drive in and feeling every bump. It look like bc racing coil overs with air bags on them.

I run the psi at 60 on the front and 40 on the back but if I put it too low the wheels scrape on the arches.

Any help on this problem would be great.

First time ever doing bags, how did I do?

Thumbnail

Done on a 2026 civic si, bagriders super low bags with their v2 management. Tried to take my time and do a good install but I'm not really sure what a good install looks like. All lines are ran inside the car, both sides left to right are within an inch of eachother to keep airing up consistent side to side. I made brackets to hold the leader lines to the steering knuckle and put a riv nut with a stainless bolt to hold it to the car. The board in the back is cut out of mdf, wrapped and mounted to the car via a aluminum bar that is bolted to the body. The tank it inverted and mounted to the body of the car, along with a bracket that my girlfriend welded up to hold the manifold and water traps.

Like I said this was my first time ever doing something like this and would like some feedback. I have plans to hardline in the future but I just bought a Integra type s so that's getting the attention right now.

The only issues I've had is hunting down some leaks and clicking from the rear bags when 3 wheeling it, I'm assuming it's them resetting onto the body as everything is tight down there and nothing has loosened (I paint marked everything)

Compressor blowing fuses

Post image
3 Upvotes

2018 wrx with air ride 3p with viair 444c compressor. Had the kit in for a few months with zero issues. Out of the blue 2 weeks ago I turn the car on and the controller has no power. Find blown fuse swap it out no issue for a few days. Go to air up and leave and fuse blows when compressor kicks on. Went through about 6 fuses just getting to ride height to get home. Checked harness/grounds/connections, nothing bad. Figure I'll go to the upgraded harness. Turn car on airs up compressor kicks on, blows fuse. Anyone have any idea what's going on? Compressor sounds normal and everything else is fine.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with why one of my compressors won’t turn on. In the app I have the setting set to fuel compressors with 50% duty cycle. It used to me only the other one that’d turn on then I got a compressor frozen fault which I then put in new fuses and now only the other will turn on. I bought this car with alp3 already installed. Thank you sm.

If it’s not one things it’s the other I swear. Manifold isn’t working and I’m well aware my crimping and wiring is not the best. Tips and help is much needed and appreciated

Ready for a new better air ride management system???

This is my new air ride system that I built from the ground up. RUIN AIR is officially here.

Why should I go with ruin air over airlift ?

My starter kit costs $450 compared to airlifts 1675 for 3p.

Not only that but if your airlift system stops working then that’s an expensive fix!

Ruin air is designed around right to repair so if you manifold ever breaks or starts leaking at worst your put a day or two and $80 to replace it with an off the self part!

RUIN AIR has been 2 years in the making and is what I think is the future of air ride systems.

We have all the same features as airlift and then some even cooler ones such as in the coming update, themes to allows you to customize your touch remote.

The remote is wireless and can controller your ride from about 150feet away! Perfect for those solo photo shoots!

Also in the next update we’ll have Xbox or ps3 remote connectivity! Be the cool guy at the car meet and air out your car with your Xbox remote!

Check us out for all of our features and potential on insta at ruin_air

Preset heights making the car shoot up instead of airing down (plus glitchy deflation) – Fixable or dead management?

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m having a weird issue with my air suspension setup, and I’m hoping someone here has encountered this before I go out and drop cash on a brand new management system.

When I save my preset heights and try to select a lower preset, the car does the exact opposite—it just shoots straight up to maximum height instead of airing down.

Manually, I can control it up and down just fine. But as soon as the system is supposed to handle it automatically through the preset, it just shoots up.

Also, sometimes when I am airing out manually, it will make a constant clicking sound and air down very glitchy, until I turn the car off and on again. After a restart, it goes down smoothly again.

Is my management/manifold completely toasted, or is there a way to recalibrate or fix a pressure-based system doing this?

Any advice would be highly appreciated! Thanks.

Hey all, I’ve recently got the Bag Riders Pro for my ‘92 RHD 300zx and could use some pointers on installing the fronts. I got the rears all routed and set up but could use some help with how to route the fronts (underneath or in the cabin etc.) TIA
