I got some of those hanging from mine too. You can see them on my SSDB avatar. I bought them specifically for my car but with-in a week of picking them up my wife informed me that she was pregnant and insisted i remove them from the car so the expected baby could have them. I'll have to wait she said.
Guess what happened, we ended up with 3 children all in quick succession. Because they were basically the kids first shoes they kept really well and i had to wait til each of them went through the supes before i could hang em. Took 4 years.

damn nice mr. olstar sir! such an system will cost a half fortune...

RE: Look what else the postie brought me... (not trainers/sneakers) - olstar - 26-03-09

initial setup cost £2000

then some kind soul stole my tank, compressor and valves/solenoids..

so i have had to get them all again..

If i hadnt been helped out by friends and family, it would of cost me near enough £4000

And thats not including the price of the truck!

To be honest, ive had mine hanging from the rearview for about 4/5 years, and i have never used the truck cos its always been broke..

No way !
That is cool as polar bear spunk.
Hydraulics is one of the major factors drawing me to getting a car in the first place.
Did it have much effect on your insurance ?

---

RE: Look what else the postie brought me... (not trainers/sneakers) - olstar - 26-03-09

Its not hydraulics, its air suspension..

Hydraulics = juice
Air suspension = air

Air is a lot more comfy, with juice you end up with NO SUSPENSION AT ALL its like you are riding on blocks of steel

But you need juice (or a UBER UBER UBER air setup) to bounce

Insurance.. Hmm.. Ask me again in a week when ive got some quotes

It will be like any modification tho really, the older you are the less it matters
