Try getting your trunk open (seems to be easier for me), climb through it, and kick the doors out.

Alright well hopefully the 40lb work I just bought this kit,
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SPAL-...spagenameZWDVW

I haven't shaved the handles yet or installed the suicide yet I have the hinges and everything I just need the filler panels for the handles.

And adam I am almost always parking in a garage so I never build up a lot of snow to melt on my truck so I should be alright (hopefully)!

It doesn't come with POOPERS but it does come with POPPERS! Sorry I had to. And as far as the fillers I will probably just make my own we'll see when that time comes.

For people living up north and drive there cars in winters.. it wouldn't be wise to shave ur door handles. Like when ur door freezes shut then ur screwed.

I believe though with the bear claw latches once they are pulled open they stay open until slammed shut again, so if the solenoid pulls the latches open and the door is froze shut I will then just have to go pull on the door. And the only time I have had my s10 doors freeze shut was after I washed it in the winter and didn't dry it well enough.

I have been driving it all winter. It has been working fine even when we had that -20F couple weeks. The only thing that I have noticed (besides the fact it settles when it is really cold, obviously) is that when it is anything below 10F the two rear dump valves are a little sticky when/if I dump the air. I try not to when it is that cold, but sometimes it is hard to resist when one is stopped at a light and there is a car full of good lookin ladies right next to you!

Cold weather its good just leave the car aired up. Incase for that fact of the valves freezing shut due to moisture. I don't even lay mine out no more in my own driveway. It saves my air which equals to compressors don't need to run to air the tank which will extend the life of the compressors. Compressors will/do burn out the piston seal rings eventually. When that happens it will not make any air. (this is good for other people who don't already know or have knowledge of air ride and the maintance). Water traps (for those who has them) should be emptied daily in below freezing temperatures. Or else they will explode. When that happens you lose all air in the tank which the car will fall down due to no backpressure to keep the valves shut to hold air.

racing4jc this is not directed towards you.. just making sure other owners of air ride knows these info to eliminate problems.
