Questions about being bagged on stock struts

[psylent]

So today I ordered my bags from UAS, I cant wait to get them and get them installed.

After talking to a friend of mine, I started to think about the possibilities of over compressing a stock strut and ruining it... Has anyone ran into any issues like this?

The air bags replace the stock struts, so you have nothing to worry about.

the UAS does not replace it, u use the stock shock and replace the spring with the bag

i've had mine for almost a year and have no problem with them, daily drive it as well

go for it!!!! u'll love it

As Flossin' has already stated, the bag replaces the spring and NOT the strut. The front bags will slide over a modified stock strut (with the collar removed) and the rears obviously mount by themselves. Per UAS's instructions, you will need to remove the rear bumpstop from the stock struts.

As for diminishing the life of the struts much faster, yes... considering you're laying out your vehicle fully compressing the struts, you are going to lessen the life of the struts versus the stock setup/slightly lowered setup.

I will try to take as many pictures as possible. Like I told Zack from UAS, I looked around forever, price shopping and looking for good product. I am a bang for buck guy, but after seeing what UAS had to offer, I said "Screw it" it is bolt in. It has to be easy! Not to mention everyone on this forum that has used their product has nothing to say but great things.

Zack, to you

I've had my bags for over a year now and have abused them. I have not run into a single problem yet. UAS did the install, so I can't comment too much on it but I can say it only took them 3 days. Seems to be a pretty simple task if you know your way around a garage even a little bit.
