OK im a huge minitrucker, i got a s10 with bags and a body drop with a hemi in it, and i also have my cavalier for a daily driver and im going to be baggin it in about a month or so. I was looking over THE best place to buy air suspension parts....SuicideDoors.com, they have the front and rear strut bag kits by easystreet separately, its like $514.80 for the rear kit, $542.10 for the front kit and they have a 3/8 and 1/2 starter air kit which comes with the bag airline, gauge airline, 2 dual needles, 1 single needle, 8 3/8 or 1/2 smc valves, 5 gallon 8 port tank, 10 switchbox (any color), your choice of : Viair 450 (150 MAX psi) or Viair 380 (200PSI max) compressors, and you can also upgrade the kit to another compressor and tank for another 190 bucks. which is still cheaper then the actual airlift kit. all together for my setup with the 3/8 starter kit + shipping minus the fittings is 1,720.45 .... Just thought id share this to you guys, so if you want air ride but not the HUGE price of the airlift kit here ya go!!! Hope this helps.
id rather spend the extra 100 and get it from jason. not to mention jason gives free shipping so when all said an done the 1720 + shipping will probably be the same
The front & rear air strut prices are $50 above what I sell them for....
By the time you add in all the fittings & costs they aren't neccessarily the "cheapest".

just buy the easystreet kit from jason best way to go
just buy from Jason anyway. he supports the j-body community far more than suicidedoors.com does.
that's worth a few more bucks IMO

i totally forgot about a+ i used to be on here all the time i had a black 4 door cavalier. but that was like 2 n a half years ago, so i have been outta the JBO scene for quite sometime, and now it sucks kuz all the places i used to buy stuff from aint open anymore or there is nothing out there. it sucks. but if you got the front and rear strut kits cheaper then that ill get at ya when i need em. but im more then likely getting the starter air kit, because SMC are awesome valves for year round use, through winter and rain. not that they will ever be outside my car, but thats good enough for me. what ever happend to highrevmotorsports and RSM racing? this sucks i was planning on supercharging my car also but rsm is the only one that made a kit for the 2200 correct? also anyone that wants/needs some SRT4 wheels and tires i got a set for sale, asking 600 OBO!!!
Hey Jason, I busted a bag ang got sent two easystreet bags for the front and thought i had easystreet struts. Well they are not easystreet and will not fit. PM me with the price on just the front struts without bags. It would be a tremedous help! Thanks!
travis wurdeman - We carry all of the same parts as suicidedoors. So if you need SMC valves & other parts, just let us know each item when it comes time to buy, and I'll get you hooked up.
Jason Adamson - I believe in that case you're going to have to order those directly from EasyStreet - 1-800-248-0892 ext. 3. Any other questions/issues, let me know.

I support Jason myself, but suicidedoors.com is an awesome business despite not catering directly to us. I have plenty of "minitrucker" friends who swear by them.
its so awkward seeing everyone saying "jason" because one of the owners of suicide is Jason thorbecke...lol its like seeing s10 forum all over, its like jason for jbo and jason for s10forum. but yeah dude, ill let you know. i also need the wings west big mouth front the avenger sides and voltex rear anyone know where i can get that stuff reasonable?

this is very true. thorbecke brothers are the @!#$ to. they have very good customer service. if something happens they fix it fast just like jason form a plus haha
thanks jason, i'll give them a call tomorow. Also do you carry the"block" style valves? They came with the kit and i can't find them anywhere. If you need a pic to know what i am talking about just let me know. Thanks again
its a valve block or manifold valve setup im guessing. i hate those things. id rather run my separate 8 anyday.
Does running the seperate ones make it go any faster? I like these because it doesn't take much room up, and i have a system and the tank in my trunk. Kinda hurtn for space back there.
the closer the valves are to the bag, the faster it will be since the air has to travel less distance

that of course is personal opinion and not fact.
The manifold valves will provide you with a clean look and perform just as well as a standard valve. Only difference is that they are all grouped together vs. being individual.

I personaly like the clean look that I got with the manifold valves that came with my digital setup...
Of course after the weather warms up, I will be redoing my trunk to "display" everything a little better. That is just what I came up with just to get everything in there.
mirror the tank and compressor on the other side, and put the manifold valves in the middle of the 2 tanks and compressors, and you'll have my set up. (once it arrives).
Not sure on where the brain is going just yet. Probably behind the valves
...
umm, normally valve manifolds or valve blocks only have one inlet, that comes from the tank, thats the ones im referring to, they come with all of the ART kits, and aim kits...those are the ones im talking about. i would just rather have my 8 separates anyways, mount them right to the tank, works perfect. less stuff to hide, takes less room...yadda yadda yadda. oh and stenger, how is what i said not a fact, i didnt say any facts, i dont know how anything i said "is not fact" ....
oh and jason, just wondering why you dont have any body kits hoods or any of that stuff going off your links. its like that on all your websites.
I was stating that Traditional Valves vs. Manifold valves and the performance are the same. Its just looks. I was just stating that it was a opinion, so that the original poster didn't get the point of view that the valves performance were any different.
