In todays video we install Air Suspension on my Subaru Wrx Sti and I show you guys can install it onto your car in a few easy steps! Installing air suspension can seem intimidating at first so I made this video hoping to simplifying it a little bit. This is exactly a "tutorial" but I hope this helps someone understand how to go about installing air bag suspension or at least makes it seem less intimidating.
We installed an Airlift 3p management with dual compressors along with the Airtekk Struts
I hope this video helps you guys understand how to install bags/ air suspension onto your cars!

That compression fitting you removed and tossed in the trash is 10 times better than that push to connect fitting. Over time the plastic push to connect fitting start to deteriorate and crack which then will lose its seal.

@chosyn187 Год назад

Push connects are available in brass and stainless also..for those in corrosive parts of the country

@andrewaguirre2836 Год назад

I would have kept the fittings on the side in case that happened. But would have added some Teflon glue on those fittings to prevent any air leaks, cross threading’s etc

@18spd4Life 10 месяцев назад

Having the air tank positioned with the fittings facing down will make draining condensation out much easier

i have bagged 10+ vehicles with the airlift 3P system and i have some words of advice for you my friend. 1: when you install a tank drain make sure you put that at the bottom of the tank or that "tank drain" is usless. 2: why the wiper fuse and not a power when key on fuse? like ignition. and 3: WHERE ARE YOUR WATER TRAPS? as soon as any type of condensation gets in that tank you can kiss that manifold goodbye. make sure you ALWAYS use water traps.

@metalsplinter2 3 года назад

Looks awesome! You could get a custom box around the tank so it looks oem. Similar to custom sub boxes but it's just for hiding the tank and boxes won't hit it.

@matthewkennedy2830 2 года назад

Tip: tape the wire to a metal hanger and insert the hanger thru the firewall. Take the wire loose from the hanger and then pull the hanger back out. Gets it thru easily no matter what size hands and how small a space. Bend to fit your needs.

Hey so i just got a honda civic LX for my first car, and i wanna do this someday, but i have a question for anyone. Do i have to change anything to the wheel or the frame around the wheel so when it lowers it doesnt rub or scrape on anything?

@mikepeace6694 2 года назад

Also you should've put the tank drain line running to the port under the tank. How are you going to drain it with it running to the port on the side of the tank? And where is your water trap?

@MrTheHillfolk Год назад

Directions say the manifold should be higher than the tank and compressor too, cause it's harder for water to go uphill. Not worried about my install, I'm more and more convinced that alot of people have issues because of improper installation.

@@beakhan thanks buddy!! The only thing is I have 2 12’s in my trunk, and the sound system is worth more then the car. I didn’t want to do a spare tire delete. Honestly I didn’t even think about it. I was just thinking how am I going to get this all in there but if I blew a tire, with the 2 12’s I wouldn’t be able to get the tire out anyways so I’m going to do the delete like you and put the compressors and brain in under and the tank hidden behind the sub box so it’s totally stealth

@alexanderdavis5332 10 месяцев назад

Go get a “fish” wire you can run it through the small holes and parts, tape the wire to the end and pull them through. I got 50’ of it and cut it about 6’ long. They sale them at Home Depot. It’s kinda like a snake for your toilet. Especially if you do this type of work all the time it works wonders!

@2legit2quit70 9 месяцев назад

Will this work in a 93 Buick Roadmaster? I’m looking to make it go up and down but don’t wanna do hydraulics. Just make it low but lift it if I need to

@captnjaygreybeard6394 10 месяцев назад

20:56 Looks great, but the drain should be facing down. When compressing air it can create water, this can build up in the tank, and cause rust inside the tank. Looks like it was welded that way, oh well.

@TM-fx5le 5 месяцев назад

Those air struts allow more negative camber by removing the two bolts closest to the engine on the camber plate and there’s two more threaded holes closer to the fender side of the camber plate to thread them into

@Joseb1998 3 года назад

Did you have the air drain line outside? It sounds nice and loud when airing out. Mine was installed with no line on the manifold so it just dispenses the air inside the trunk. I wish it could sound louder. I might drill a hole and stick a line out. I’m afraid of exposing the line on weather conditions like condensation as it will be opened. How did you do it?

@Joseb1998 3 года назад

Yep the exhaust line!! You placed it out. I wanna do that. But what did you use to place it nicely on the bottom of the car?

@Galicia322 Год назад

Random question, but have you ever had bags pop while airing up? I just got bags in but when I air up it pops and moves the whole car.

@justin-zp1vp 2 года назад

Probably the worst ride experience extremely stiff and all the air suspension is for is for people to look at you I installed air suspension on my car now it's almost undrivable it looks cool but going over any thing on the road at any psi from 10-100 psi feels like you are driving a car with absolutely no suspension good for looks and that's it I could have installed it incorrectly but I did exactly what he did but the car is not fun to drive anymore I would rather drive my minivan then my car I built just because the suspension is so stiff

@beakhan 2 года назад

I hope you don’t take this the wrong way but I think you must’ve set up your air suspension wrong. I’ve had air suspension on multiple different vehicles in the past five years and I can say my experience isn’t like that. I have air suspension on my current BRZ and everyone compliments on how smooth it drives with the camber and how low it is. I would get your suspension looked at by a professional, I hope your experience on the changes!
