Subject:      Airlift 1000 suspension kit
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

I'd like to get some feedback from others about the airlift 1000 suspension kit.  I was reading about it here: http://www.vanagon.com/syncros/technica/airlift-test/index.htm

I have a common problem with a lot of 2wd westy's, namely a sagging rear. Mine is lower on the driver side, which presumably is due to the extra weight on that side.  I'm just wondering if one of these airlift suspension kits could equalize the weight, and at the same time even out the rear, or if that would require new springs and/or spacers.

The kits look like it takes under an hour to install.  I really need to install some new shocks in the rear as well, but that's another project...

For the price, it seems like a pretty inexpensive fix, assuming it would actually work.  I have no idea what kind of problems can be solved with this suspension kit, but the feedback seems to be positive.

Comments?
