Thread: suspension for a custom '66 T-bird

Tweet

I'm certainly no expert on air ride, but I would say the only way to control body roll is to have four air control valves, one per corner, so that the air will not bleed back and forth under hard cornering. With a sway bar properly connected, it will work fine at any ride height. Many years ago, there used to be "Air Lift" bags for leaf spring cars, don't know if they are still around or not????

airride technologies has an air-over-leaf setup with their coolride program, a specific set is available for the 66 t-bird also, so I don't have to search hard there, to find the matching parts...
think I want the shockwaves in front though

just wondered about using airride AND upgraded swaybars at the same time...
guess that if i opt for a good set of swaybars, just the side to side roll for show (as those lowrider showcars do) will not work and that's just fine with me!
