Re:
It would be IMPOSSIBLE to convert that system to canovers. Canovers are a cylinder that replaces your entire spring/shock combo. It is fully height and dampening adjustable, much like that of Teins SS coilver system. The ride quality is uncomparable to anything most people have ever experienced; just ask any of the other people who have it. But, what deters most people from getting this system, is its cost. If you want to use all A grade parts, expect the total bill to run a few thousand dollars. No offense to Tunaboy, but the system he has for sale is a very generic system, that will have a few issues as opposed to other available setups. I do not believe that any of the major parts are from a big manufacturer, like Air Ride Tech, or anything else I have heard of. I may be mistaken, because he doesnt list any brand names. His setup is used, which I would advise against, because an air suspension setup is not like most parts that will last forever, as the suspension needs to be rebuilt every now and than. A good set of bulletproof valves would run you about $500-$750. Also, his setup includes only 1 compressor, which no statistics listed, such as duty cycle, fill time, etc. I have 2 compressors, that are 100% duty cycle, and if all the air is used, it could take a few minutes to fill. I couldnt imagine how long it would take with 1 compressor. If you have any questions, feel free to ask...I will try and answer as best as I can, because I was in your spot a few months ago, and I have a few forum members to thank for their help and advice. I also had a dope installer! As for installation price, it really depends on how you want to do your setup. It can be as cheap as $500, or up alot higher...
