Does anyone know anthing about air ride for a camry? How does it handle? where can i buy it. I was thinking maybe air cylinders (because they are more durable but maybe air struts)with 2 1/2hp compressors and 2 5 gal tanks. Does anyone know if this has ever been attepted before? How hard is the instal? Any comments would be very appreciated. THanks once again.

Well it is definately possible. In fact...there was a Solara on Eurolowrider w/ air-struts last year. I am pritty sure the easiest route is air struts...which are a bit more expenive but much stronger. People have told me air cyl. will work as well. For bags, one would have to mount custom brakets..and it would be quite a hassle. So definately, you can juice your ride.

If you get the struts I am 100% sure its bolt-on. The gist of it is you run lines from the struts to the compressor, compressor to the tank...electrical work...etc. Most guys say half a day to a day to install.
