Air Lift Drift's???


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 Bagged Life Movement


It's been around the car show seen for years. Up until a few years ago it was just for show. The ability to lay your ride on the ground with the push of a button was key for that hammered show look.

With the changes in materials and builds over the years our generation is getting the chance to witness a new era in air suspension. With everyone wanting to get everything out of one vehicle,
Air Lift is offering air suspension solutions that will cover just about everything.

With companies like Air Lift around, conquering new roads and squashing all urban legends associated with air suspension is what they do best. Leading the industry with tow and load control systems for over 60 years. Air Lift Company, got their start in stock car racing. You heard me right, I said racing.

Now with an engineering team that I would consider to be the equivalent of an all star basketball team, in the suspension industry. This team has already given us a 2010 Camaro with +1g cornering on stock tires that averaged 157mph for 90 miles. A 2011 Mustang with +1.34g's of cornering force. Volkswagon's that lay their under carriage's on the ground to get a rest, and get up and cruise on demand.

These guy's are providing us with the tools to build a proper car. It's all about practicality these days, form and function right? I love my car's, and want to treat them with the respect they deserve. So instead of bombing around on coils that can't get you into your girls driveway, or even through the grocery store parking lot. Go air and become not only your girl's hero, become your car's hero.

2010 Camaro at Gingerman Raceway on Air Lift air suspension

Bitchin Camaro!!!




Not sure how many of you will get the title of this post. It was a Dead Milkmen song from the 80's and totally fit's Air Lift's new 2010 Chevy Camaro air suspension kit!

Until now air suspension carried the rep of being just for show. Well the guy's at Air Lift Company, have designed a product so amazing every Camaro owner should check it out.

With the powerful stance of it's 4" drop the 2010 Camaro becomes a real show stopper. When it comes to making a car look proper these guy's are the kings. And when it comes to making a show car do magic tricks like stand up and handle like a champ, Air Lift Company is leading the way.


I bet you didn't know that Air Lift Company set a record at the Silver State Classic this year for being the first car on air suspension to ever enter the race. Not only did they drive from Lansing, MI all the way to Nevada. They placed 11th with an average speed of 157mph in the 150mph class. Then made the journey home without skipping a beat.

The Air Lift Camaro kit is also capable of +1g cornering on stock tires! Show me another
suspension kit that will let you drop to the ground and tear up the track with
the push of a button.

When it comes to suspension design and innovation Air Lift Company is leading the way. If you are looking for more answers or just can't live without such an amazing product contact your local airlift dealer. They also have a dealer locater on the website.

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.
