You can find me at " AccuAir Suspension "

Well it's been a long time since my last post.  A real long time.  In fact last time you heard from me I was working for Air Lift Company.  It's not like they were a bad company to work for, they are great people.  Don't get me wrong, they make good bolt in air suspension kits.

I just needed something different.  I needed something that would change my own outlook on air suspension and AccuAir Suspension did just that.  What do I mean by different?  Well having installed air suspension on vehicles for 13+ years, and literally installing the same products just gets boring.  I was getting tired of it, my passion was lost.  The products weren't improving at all, just more companies coming in and bringing cheaper products.

Before I started working for AccuAir Suspension a few friends of mine had been running AccuAir's E-Level system and bragging up a storm.  What is the E-Level system you ask?  It's a auto-leveling height sensor based air management system that offer's three preset ride height's that are repeatable by the push of a button.  The long and short of it is " The AccuAir E-Level system is the only air management system you will ever need.  It's what I would call the adult control system over gauges and switch boxes and definitely over any pressure based digital system that can almost get you there.  It's the only system that you can actually align your vehicle with and not feel that you wasted money after having it done.

I finally got the chance to experience the E-Level system for myself.  The first thing that I noticed was the Touchpad controller.   WOW!!! I thought, it's not just a piece of plastic!!!  I then turned on the ignition and the system came to life and the car went right to it's ride height.

After getting in and out of the vehicle a couple of times I realized it was making small adjustments.  This was brilliant!!!  If it correct's for my weight how will it react to big weight changes???  So I loaded the car with a bunch weight and within seconds a car that was sagging was at perfect ride height.  (Not sure if many of you reader's know this but AccuAir Suspension is the only company that offer's a auto leveling feature that actually works...)

All playing aside I had to drive it.  The first thing I noticed is I wasn't wasting my time looking at useless pressure gauges.  Then I noticed myself actually enjoying the drive.  I kept thinking to myself, why haven't I had to do anything to the system?  Is it possible that AccuAir created a product that literally anyone can use? Like anyone.........   I mean I did have fun with all of the years of switch boxes and digital controllers.  Plus the gauges that were accurate 66% of the time, all of the time.  But to actually be able to drive a vehicle with aftermarket air suspension and feel that it could have been factory installed is priceless...

Ok that's enough advertising for one post.  Well I'll just add this.  If you love bagged cars and really just want to be able to enjoy driving AccuAir is your air management company.  If your like some of my customers and you have to share a vehicle with someone like your wife again AccuAir is your company.  The E-Level system is the closest thing to a factory installed air management system ever.

Thanks for reading and until next time,

Air Lift Drift's???

A little playing around in the Camaro at Adam's Motorsports Park. 

That's right Air Lift drifts.  They also do all kinds of other things with air suspension.  But they drift?!, with air ride?  Why yes sir they do! They also drag race, road race, haul kids around, pick up groceries, drive over speed bumps, pick up girls, girls impress boys, and actually give you the ability to pull into any driveway. Sounds almost unreal.

Well over the weekend Air Lift was given the opportunity to impress some very important people in the industry.  After a few weeks of emails and phone calls it was all set.  We had a car supplied by  Gary Shellum who was more than happy to let us use his 2010 Camaro to do some light testing.  With a competent driver like Leigh Guarnieri behind the wheel and having a fun spot like Adam's Motorsports Park at our disposal.  We all knew it was going to be an interesting evening. 

After everyone got to take a ride around the track a few times in the Camaro, I wasn't hearing the typical "yeah I figured it would ride like that,  that's definitely air ride." etc...  It was more like a " WHAT!!! That's air suspension?  I never would have known!"  With raving reviews from our rider's I just wanted to scream!!!  Hello world, we are Air Lift Company and we come to take your coils!!! 

After mentally releasing my screams, we let a couple of the rider's play around with the car. With Leigh giving pointers in the passenger seat, we knew we would see great results.  It's one of those you have to see it to believe it things, but then when you see it you have to feel it to make sure it's really real. You know what I mean?.  Anyway after some hot laps were taken by other drivers, it became a reality to me.  Air suspension really is the future.  I've been to the track with our cars multiple times, I've seen the data from our engineers at the track.  Now I am witnessing these individuals that have been sleeping with the enemy for years, looking at air suspension likes it's a new love affair.  

Just pay attention to the name Air Lift Company.  They've been around for years and they are about to be around for many more.  They are baggin cars and taken names, and you can expect to see the name Air Lift Company on tracks all over the world in the years to come.

The "Air Lift Company 2005-11 Ford Mustang" air suspension kit

Well here is another great product following the release of Air Lift's popular 2010 Chevy Camaro kit.

If you attended SEMA show this year you might have gotten a glimpse of it. It can also be seen at the LA Auto Show right at this very moment.

Not only does Air Lift improve the appearance with a 4" dropped stance, they also improved the handling. Finally, you can have that show car look, with real sports car handling.

Air Lift's car achieved 1.3g running some very abused BFG R1's in 245/45/18's, at Gingerman Raceway in MI.

This kit is amazing! Air Lift is paving the way for the guys and gals that want everything out of their vehicles.

So if you want to have that hammered to the ground show car look, the ability to run the track on the weekends, and be able to have a comfortable daily driver this is it.

Contact your local Air Lift dealer for more information, or use the dealer locater on the website.

So Cal Shuffle

Well it looks like I am moving to So Cal. Not only have I been waiting to get out of MI, for life, but I am just excited to be where the car culture's start. Every time I am in So Cal, I see something new and unique. I am as excited as a rich kid in a tuner shop.

My work takes me there. I have been working with Air Lift Company, for quite sometime now. I love it, anybody that wants to pay me for doing what I love, deserves to have my love in return. (Does that even sound right?)

We have recently been making an impact on the VW market all around the world. Our air suspension is a hit. Why wouldn't it be? We are a 60 year old company. Now I am ready to tackle the Scion and VIP markets with extreme force. I will be stopping at shops, shows, and g2g's allover California. Educating the consumer and the retailer is key in my book.

I know this maybe a different kind of product than most have dealt with. Even though it has been around for years. Not a lot of people see air suspension for anything other than show. Well it is way more than show. Air suspension is for everything you every wanted in a vehicle. It gives you the option to tote the family around and not drag anything off your car, or break anyones backs with the bumps. You can lower the car with the push of a button to have a nice ultimate low cruise. Push another button and lift it up to pull into parking lots. Then lay it out for that show look. Our stuff handles great to. We design, build, and test, all of our products with handling in mind. We want you to have a product that lets you do more with your one car than you could have ever imagined.

Installation is a breeze. 90% of our kits are bolt in. That means no cutting or welding. Just a direct replacement of the original piece. Installing the air management is a breeze also. We have universal kits that can be built to suit almost any install need. We also carry over 2000 parts and pieces for the air suspension world.

All I can say is be ready to be educated California. Jesse is coming to town, with the will to educate and show. I hope you are as excited as I am So Cal...
