oh wait forgot [coughcough]










so i got the Ksport pro air supspension.. installed it myself with the help of Rides Low. took about 3 days of work.. still not done yet but i can say that the ride quality is amazing! it can be harsh when u want it or soft when you want it =] the 36 way dampening is pretty good as well. currently im running off the wireless remote since i didnt hook up the manual switches but so far i have nothing bad to say!

once again thanks you Rides low for helpin me out! just pm him for anything ksport related!

will post more details later.

Hey... are you in Irvine? I think I saw you rolling into Diamond plaza on Jamboree and Alton! Recognized the L-sportline kit. How long you have that?
