air over leaf

Anyone had any experience with this set up? I am considering it for my 40 Ford coupe. Have Chassis Engineering set up and don't want to switch to four link. Would just like some adjustability when Momma loads it down with antiques. Any thoughts.

air shocks with leaf springs? what comes with the Chassis Engineering set up? 4 links want give you any adjustability when you load it down. :confused:

My first recommendation is going to be to go with a four link in the rear. You will get a better ride than with your leafs! However if you are just looking for a way to get back to rideheight then the air over leaf will work for you.

I've been playing with the same Idea for the 57 Plymouth I'm building (I'm dreading the load the wife plans when we go on vacation).

I haven't really looked into it too much, but have seen some advertised for light trucks that might be made to work. Personally having used air bags on coil equipted cars in the past I really prefer them over air shocks.

Let us know what you figure out.

My daily driver is a lowered truck, 4" in front, 6" in the back. I've got a set of bags in the rear that I pump up whenever I put a load in it. Works great.

They work pretty good.. I took two leaves out of the rear springs and added the air over leaf bags. You can put them in front of the rear axel or rear. Poor mans air ride

:D

Thanks guys. Just what I wanted to know. I believe I will try a set on my 40.

Be sure to hook up an on-board compresser. Don't rely on service station air hoses, they're never around when you need one.
