Rear Struts Automatic Air Leveling...Blown Out Don't Work...

Post by nunesjeff »

My Ride Is Bouncy!!! The Rear Struts Are Toast... Are They Hard To Replace? Also I Probed The Air Compressor To Come On And Can Hear Air Leaking From Both Sides... But The Air Comp Will Not Come On Or With Switch On With The Inflatior.... And Is It Able To Air Up Tires... What Can I DO To Use It Or Does It Not Work That Way... If The System Is Garbage Can I Get A Set Of Regaular Struts....? Such A Fancy Ride With Lots Of This And That Will The Work Ever End??? LOL

You could go with KYB P/N 235025 with Strut Boot Kit #SB128. And you will have a "normal" rear suspension. It's not a difficult job for one person. Of course if you had a second person hold the shock in place while your threading the nut onto the top of the shock it would be easier. But then where's the challenge in that?
Other's will suggest Monroe Sensatrac.
