    Going a different direction and have put my coilovers back in my car, so my Air Suspension setup is up for sale.
    The Good:
    AirLift V2 kit with 5 gallon tank, 1/4" fittings.
    Upgraded to two Viair 444c compressors, SMC check valves, SMC Water trap.
    Air Ride Equipment custom bag over coil set, includes Universal air bags and custom mounts.
    Front Top hat is milled billet aluminum, using stock bearing and top hat, double bellow bag and custom steel sleeve for the strut.
    Rear is steel custom brackets with single bellow bag.
    All fittings, tubing and rear truck carpeted mount is all included.

    I used these with Tein Basis coilovers, so you need to have your own coilovers. (Not included)
    Alternatively, you can get away with using the stock shocks in the rear, but the front will need to be a coilover struts. Or you might be able to weld the bottom mount to the stock strut, but that's some extra custom work.
    You will also need to use your existing top hat bearing. I will include a top hat with the inner cup cut out that works for this top mount.

    The Bad:
    I unfortunately miscalculated the angle of my front wheel and clearance when driven super low and the tire eventually rubbed thru the front two bags, so those will need to be replaced.

    I'd prefer pickup in the Seattle area. $1,200 for it all. Or add actual shipping costs.
    (I would be wiling to part with my Tein Basis for a "full working package", add $400)

    Trunk setup (Amp in pic not included)

    This was a great setup and was fun while it lasted!

    Yes, air controller comes with it. I have some extra relays, all the wiring, fuses, etc. Pretty much everything you need to get going, sans the front two bags. The front bags can be purchased from Ray @ Air Ride Equipment or any other air ride vendor. It's made by Universal Air, so their generic double bellow bag. (I can get the part number too, maybe get it directly from Universal Air)

    So the part number for this double bellow front bag over strut doesn't seem to match.
    Looking around, I believe that the "Aero Sport" By Universal Air is the closest match. (Might need to reach out to Universal Air directly)
    Also, it looks like Air Ride Equipment in Cali has closed up shop. Their email also bounces back now.
    I'm going to take some measurements and verify that this single bellow Aero Sport will work.

    (Sorry, way late reply) Here are two pics.

    These were with the bump stops still on the shocks, so it actually goes another 1" lower fully aired out. (Car is on 18" with 45 profile tires)
    If you have even shorter coilovers or actual air struts, you should be able to drop further!

    *EDIT* Also, the option for my coils is out. I'm just going to stick with these Tein's for now.
