Hello all this is my 97 Lesabre project.


Super clean and rust free Lesabre Limited.
Picked it up a couple of months ago and have been slowly fixing the minor things. I plan to put it on bags and some nice wheels. Along the lines of my Mercedes W140 and my TDI Passat



Today Finally the custom made bags are in!



Just need to decide on a management system and wheels. it will be a slow process for now as I prep for surgery but I am determined to get it done.

Nice.

Who made the custom bags?

They are custom made in house from AirBagit in Nevada i gave them the info and asked for a shorter height at ride height and when aired out. Should be able to drop the Buick 7-9 inches from factory height when aired out

I still need to look into those f body shocks for the rear.

Here's the link

They don't keep anything in stock it's all custom made and they can do any car. Only thing is the body is not threaded so the only height adjustment is from air pressure. Unlike my Passat with Bag riders air suspension which I am able to adjust the height like a coilovers too.

Regardless of the adjust-ability, they look well built.

I'm just realizing it looks like the top bolt hole on the strut was intentionally slotted to accommodate the 00+ H-body knuckle, which would allow for a bunch of different brake upgrades.

Yeah they definitely are the have some good weight to them. The bags themselves are nice and thick aswell if memory serves the bags have a 5 year warranty. Idk I'd have to recheck. The rear brackets are really thick.

Tomorrow I'm headed to the junk yard as I've found a 97 lesabre there and want some interior bits. But I need to take measurements for the rear shocks on an F body, or a Century do I can determine which route to go for a shorter shock.

Also I went to let the car warm up yesterday and I noticed my oil pressure gauge read 0 and that oil was dripping from the Passanger CV axle area. I haven't taken the wheel off yet but my guess is the Sender broke.

Update: I have ordered my Management system along with a tank and compressor. I am looking for some custom rear shocks and may look into 2004 rear Impreza coil overs and just remove the springs. Still undecided about wheel selection. Car is put away for the winter and I probably wont make any progress until it begins to warm up again.

It'll be cool to see this come together.
