Four wheel air ride suspension conversion?

My searches have turned up plenty regarding the rear air shocks, replacement and conversion to standard shocks as well as safety air bags, but nothing on a full air ride suspension.

Has anyone attempted it? There are some complete kits out there, but I question their compatibility due to the ...

Re: Floor Mats/Liners

That's awesome. I did some more research and feel there's a good chance the floor pan is the same. Like I said before, the GM parts catalog shows the same rear floor and rails were used in both cars. There's no listing on the front floor pan. The Lucerne's wheelbase is 3" longer and the track width ...

Re: Floor Mats/Liners

Never did get the floor mats, but protected it with that carpet mask used in RV's ad such. Had the carpets out due to sunroof leaks and had it professionally cleaned. It's back together so I would like to get some quality mats.

I checked with Weather Tech and they don't do custom orders. I did ...

Re: Restoring Door Window Reveal

Peter,

That's awesome. Thanks for the tip. Some pics would be great.

Did you ever attempt to polish the coating and if so, was there any improvement?

My car spent it's first 35k in a climate controlled garage. When I got it a year ago the reveals were in excellent condition. Now after just 20k ...

Restoring Door Window Reveal

I'm not sure if my pics will show as I'm new at posting pics, but I'm sure most will understand the issue. 2000-05 reveal moldings on the doors are coated with a black rubberized type coating. Over time it starts to breakdown. dull spots and marks appear.

Can this be restored without painting? I ...

I thought I would post a couple of good related write ups I found for future reference to anyone that comes across this thread.

Floor Mats/Liners

I scored a little old lady owned, 34,000 mile 02 SLE. The interior is nearly flawless and I want to preserve it as best I can. Sadly I have to drive it during the New England winter. It appears Weather Tech no longer makes a custom fit liner and neither does Husky.

Are their any available that ...

Complete dashboard removal???

I'm stripping my 2000 SLE before sending the rusted carcass to the recycle bin and wanted to remove the dashboard.

I found this post by ddalder - "I've had mine out in an hour. The couple of times I've done it, I've taken it out as an entire assembly (dash carrier and sub-structure). There's no ...

Re: Problem with rear air ride

Thanks for the suggestions. It's already at max height so I tried pulling the fuse.

Nothing happened with the car off so I started it. The suspension did not lower at all.

Put the fuse back in with power off and nothing happened. Turned the car back on and heard some pressure release followed by ...

Problem with rear air ride

The auto leveling system in my 2000 SLE has suddenly been pumping up my rear shocks to the max. Super high like a punks hot rod from the 70s. Super firm as well. Periodically I hear what i suspect is a pressure relief valve hissing. Then the compressor kicks in for a bit.

I suspect it's the ride ...

Re: 2000 SLE Power door lock/window issues

Thanks for the replies. I was really hoping to test it somehow before throwing money at it.

Bob, you mentioned I could get one at "haro". I have never heard of that and a Google search turns up a bunch of bmx bike sites.
