Hey all!
Does anyone know where i can source a complete air shock kit from? Need front and rear air shocks for the type 3 and im wanting to go from 0 to 125 at
least. There has been rumors that Monroe manufacture air shocks that give a 5" inflation height when fully filled. Any leads? If so thank you so
much! Also, im a total rookie on this subject. Are there control kits you can get with a compressor inside the car to inflate on the spot? Just if i
wanna drop the car at a car show and raise it when leaving or travelling.
Thanks yall!

Hey mate, you can do the rear but i wouldnt bother. mine has monroe shocks all round. not really an off the shelf thing, lots of modifying. As for
air management the sky is the limit, you can used a bike pump, or have a gauge and paddle switch in the cabin with a compressor and tank to adjust
while driving. Im running a VIAIR 480 compressor with electro-pneumatic paddle switches in a tankless setup. i run upto 150psi and the front gets
about 75mm travel. rides best about 90-110
as for engineering you arent really changing anything its purely a load assist style setup as long as you maintain legal ride height and bumpstops
etc (mine is slammed and hasnt had any bump stops for years)
Your setup sounds cool TYPE3, can you post some pics for us all?
Thanks
heres one of the latest pics of mine. no pics of suspension tho
front is Old speed drop spindles, 3 outer splines down and monroe air shocks.
