Title: "Air Bags" on the buggy
Post by: Hefe on May 25, 2010, 09:46:33 AM
finally got sick and tired of the damn torsion type suspension on the buggy and decided to bag it
I don't have a compressor or tank or anything fancy like that..
just the bags with air fittings on them
this is not something I want to be adjusting regularly
kind of a "set it and forget it" type thing

Heading to SL in 2 weeks, need to go play in the fields before then to see how it works and if it is strong enough

what kind of bags are they. So you plan on just keeping them inflated full time?


be pretty easy to set up a compressor/tank setup. then you'd just need a few solenoids. :)
