air suspension is typically not reliable or stiff enough for race application. Yes, you can pump up airbags to work for big rigs.. but do they handle? no... as I mentioned earlier in this thread, cutting a spring is MUCH better than taking a torch to it and intentionally sagging it. You basically have to be retarded to do something that foolish to something you rely on for your safety daily.

you would be suprised there is a proper method to heating.. rather than just heating and sagging. Compress a few coils, heat..and it will stay, keep going until u get the height u want. You can continue to go by what you read on the forums, and the internet...but in the real world...its not as crazy as you may think...its no secret or nothing its been done for centuries.

And ther are plenty air suspension setups for racing.. but the 929 is far from a race car..\



picture for threads sake * :)

I worked at a tool and die shop where improper heat treatment cost us over 300K. Spring steel isn't something you mess with the temper on... this is not "what I read on the forums" this is facts about how heat messes with the properties of steel. The problem isn't in the coils you actually compress, those are effectively made irrelivant (so long as you don't ruin the temper so much as to cause them to physically break).. the problem is in the area which is effected by the transfered heat.. you end up with a lot softer steel than you had to start with because it is not being quenched.. Its just not something that is wise to do unless you know EXACTLY what you are doing, and in order to do it properly, you probably need a mechanical engineering degree, with some specialty skills in tempering etc..

Its a process like ive said. There is a way to do it in your oven..(boom01)
 
Its yellow - You need to post some pics of the wheels u painted. He did a damn good job on them. Sweet pic. Im really considering getting that front lip painted. Its buggins me. lol.

We need to take some more pics in a different location. Something with scenery in the background. I might know a good place. And paint the other two wheels already.
