Gregg,
I just put a new set of the Arnott bags on the rear yesterday! The compressor & ride-height sensors all seem to work perfectly. The TBSS had a set of Belltech coils with internal overload bags plumbed to a schrader-valve. the coils were jury-rigged with basically nothing to hold them into place...Once that you lifted the car on a hoist, they would hang by the air-lines.
I have no idea why someone eliminated the original set-up for that!
The ride with the Arnott bags is way-better now!
Yeah, I have been hanging out on TBSSOWNERS.COM for a while, but finally became a member. Gonna probably buy NORCAL SS's modified upper control arms & Belltech drop struts for the front & drop shocks for the rear.
