Slightly Bagged.

[JoshGentry]

Sooo, I know I usually end up gettin bashed on here but I figured I'd post some pics. My brother's wife's brother had some ChassisTech bags that he never had installed on his Alero before he wrecked it so he gave them to me. Free of charge which felt pretty good. lol. I think they're like 600 dollars? It sits pretty low and looks sick but looks a lttle retarded with the back sittin way up. And the valves i have dump and fill really sloww. Anywho. In the "Want To Buy" section, I am trying to find some rear air struts. I figured it'd get a little more attention here. If you have anything for me, just PM me. Thanks.

so you have the front bagged, and the back not? i'm not sure thats such a good idea...

maybe i'm wrong..

[JoshGentry]

Hmm, may not be? But I'm not driving it much. And hopefully It won't be like this but for a couple weeks. I just wanted to see if anyone on here had rear bags they wanted to get rid of.

[clutch1]

Cool!! Another on one on bags!

Hopefully you can find a rear set

[Lucalare]

sorry to thread steal but if you have air springs do you necessarily need an air compressor, or is that just if you want to change the height, and you can set the height on the springs and just have them alone.

[pimpalero2003]

Well quess not but what if you have leaks change in temp? A small tank and compressor isn't that much more with valves maybe extra $ 2-250 depending on brand quality and so on.

[JoshGentry]

Yea, I'm really not sure about your question. Someone else could answer it better than me. lol. I just set it up and went with it. I really hope i can find the rear set. But i looked at my tires today and i was surprised about how much tread was already gone after a week. I needs to be aligned right? So what do i do? Just get it aligned at the psi i would normally be riding at??

Yes.

I burned off mine in a couple months because an alignment didn't even cross my mind. Big mistake, get it aligned now. It'll take care of that.

i was on chassis tech struts rode pretty good, just not low enough i could drive the car fully dumped, now easystreet struts thats the ticket right there, my engine cradle is a 1/2 from the ground, and once the struts are modified car will sit lower

wheel alignment is common sense, oh i replaced my struts why are my tires worn out?? well ya need a alignment i paid 50 bucks and all good, its basic mechanical stuff dude you replace a suspension part you get a alignment

i personally love using air ride tech products, its easy to install as a matter of fact so easy even YOU can install without fuckin something up, never had a valve blow, or the valve block blow, compressor is still going strong after 4yrs, no leaks, not one problem

some guys like using bigger size air line, im using 1/4 inch, its not to fast not to slow its just right, and yes you set the car at ride height and have it aligned

oh and btw its not low enough

[kwhauck]

not low enough for a bagged car, i can take my coilovers lower than that.....

[JoshGentry]

The struts ride good. Just need that alignment. Why do you have to be a prick about shit. so easy YOU can do it. But anyways. I can't help how low it sits. Don't really wanna modify anything. Pretty cool your coilovers can get that low. But how long does it take you to get it back up compared to my two seconds?? :P I can't ride with it dumped where I live. Just dump it when I park.

[kwhauck]

that's why i don't rock a bodykit anymore, didn't like fixing it, so when are you gonna do stuff to the motor, also maybe it's the rims (which i really like) but your tires look small, what size are they?

[JoshGentry]

I really don't like fixing it either when it cracks. I wanna get another alero and leave the outside stock. I wanna make it a s....l....e....e....p...e...r.... no sarcasm intended. Lol. Yea the tires are super small. 215 35 18. I think I might go up to a 40 series to soften up my ride. Lol. Thanks for the rim compliment. I'm surprised that someone actually likes them. Lol

because i am a prick and proud of it, and looking at pictures of what you have done to your car ummm..........yyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thats why i said what i said

so why dont ya buy easystreet struts and be done

[JoshGentry]

I'm not gonna get into this argument too deep with you. But tell me what I done that was shitty. I had decals on my car: ugly, but not applied shitty. I have lambos: not everyones cup of tea, but installed great and operate greatly if you're not a girl. I rattle canned a bumper: for TWO DAYS! It was sanded back down and painted right as soon as I found my gun, and got the paint. My car was primed: but not a shitty job, it was done right. Anywayss. Maybe I can find some EasyStreets for the rear but not sure if I wanna mitch match. I was hopin to get some offers here! Lol.
