Am I the only one that doesn't like air ride suspension?
I bought a customer 4 wheel, 4-link air ride suspension from airbagit.com for my 2012 F350 and I'm not crazy about the ride. Have any of you gone with this system and what is your experience/opinion? I talked to the manufacturer and apparently I'm the ONLY one who has ever said they don't like the ride better. I find that hard to believe. You get a softer ride, but it also feels spongy to me.
Maybe I could spend some time playing with the shocks, but I wish I would have just left the truck stock. After much thought, I'm going to put all the stock suspension back on the truck. It won't be hard to do since it is completely a bolt on system. The bad part is that I spent over $4K for this system with all the bells and whistles. I hate losing hard earned money, but my truck costs a whole lot more and I want it the way I had it. The biggest draw back for me is that I'm back to not being able to fit in some of the parking garages again! Dropping your height by pushing a button is pretty handy. Also helps when hitching trailers.
