looks nice, what size lines/valves are you using? can't wait to see the finished product. I have all 1/2" lines w/ 1/2" parker gold valves, one 4-port chrome 5 gallon tank filled by 2 viair 450c's. I have the chassistech/Aim Ind. front struts and universal air suspension triple play bags in the rear for that crazy lift that rivals juice.

Hey man, the air system is looking great!!! Nice job of installing so far! How low will the struts let the car go? I really want to do an air ride conversion in my car, but not because of the looks (although thats a big plus). I have ridden in air ride cars before, and NOTHING beats riding on air. I love the soft, smooth suspension my car has, and air would just make it better!

Cant wait to see what your finished install looks like! its going to look sweet!

thank`s dude
ya know it`s easy installing but so time consuming to get the air lines in the right spot making sure nothing will kink up
well i finished the wiring and the front struts and air lines now iam just waiting on the rear struts which should be here wensday then i can install run the lines and power the system up and see how low she will go
it should be like 2 to 3 inches off the ground and if not no bigie to me this is what i wanted and i love the ride of air
so when iam done pic`s will be up

the install looks nice and it sits pretty low. How long did it take for your airstruts to come in from Aim? it took 3 months for mine to come in, it was horrible. At first the sent me this wierd spindle/strutbag combo, you can actually see it in Aim Industries ads in some of the Truckin' magazines from a year or so ago. I had to send them a pic of their creation next to my strut for them to get the idea on what to make. Anyways your Alero looks awesome and it's great to know someone elso on here has airride now. I wish I could get my ciera looking as good as your Alero does someday.

One question, how loud do those compressors get? Can you hear them a lot in the interior? Just wondering. I am guessing you really only hear them when your going up and down and not when you're driving?

what size wheels are those? I was wondering what could fit on mine. Speaking of front license plate brackets, mines riveted on so I can't remove it. I bought the car in Ohio where they have 2 license plates, they are not needed in KY.
