I have a problem with my currently crap struts and right rear spring. I was curious about the pros and cons and ultimately the cost of upgrading to a 4 airbag system.

I'm not looking to hop around the neighborhood, just as a suspension upgrade.

I am a heavy truck and trailer mechanic, and can install the system myself, but finding the parts and what set ups to use has become a lost cause.

You guys here seem to be knowledable on what to use, and where to get it.

I also have a note for the rest of you with a WAI, you can easily build a heat sheild around your cone, and put an inexpensive functional scoop on your hood. It makes a difference.

I have a 1997 Grand Am GT with 2.4 quad 4, and 2 door....

$499.99 for just the rear bags and $499.99 for the front struts is quite saucy. Air bags don't cost that much for trucks!! I am going to have to figure out a way to get the part numbers on these bags, and by them from one of my suppliers. According to the page 1985-2003 use the same front air struts, and the 1985-1998 use the same rear bags. If anyone has bags on their GA, let me know the part numbers....:???:
