shops that "bag" in DC area

[Jayboy]

I want to bag my 06 MSRT with the system from Universal Air Suspensions. I don't have any shops in my area that I trust to do the work, but I have lots of friends and family in the DC/ NOVA/ MD/ area. Any of you DC LXers have a bagged LX and a good shop that did the work? Wouldn't mind the drive up if I could come back a little lower!

Hey Bud- I personally don't know of any shops in the area that do the BAG job but my boy has had 2 trucks of his slammed on Bags at a place in VA called PRO-Trucks. Top Notch quality work and Customer Service and have been bagging trucks for years.

Good Luck.


Ohhh and is there any reason why you wouldn't do it yourself??
I hear its not that hard just time consuming.

I am terrible with anything mechanical! I am afraid I would screw it up and I really want it done right.
What part of VA. is the place you are talking about?

I know a guy in Fredericksburg that got it done to his HHR. I'll try and talk to him this weekend and see who he recommends.

fredricksburg would work. My folks live in Charlottesville and my brother lives in Arlington. Fredricksburg is right on the way in between. Thanks for your help. Let me know.

You could drive the car up to us in NJ and take the train back.....we're a UAS dealer and installer....

[Jayboy]

If I bring it up there, how long would you need to have it?

hey guy im installing my kit a the moment, it was not that bad so far. I will post some of the pics. All I have left to do is install the bags and shocks. Every thing is all hooked up. tested all bags, tanks for leaks, no problems.

so this is my setup, it my first ever air ride setup. I do mostly car audio builds and some performance parts for my business. here are some of my pics of my air ride build. 2- 3hr left to finish the install.Im just waiting on my friend to get some car off the lift at his shop so I can put it up in the air to finish the job.

here they are:

all the parts laid out in my theater room



More pics, these are of the valves being assembled



laying parts out to get idea where Im going to mount everything

here are more pics of the install



will post up more pictures later. Also when I ordered my kit, I bought the yellow adjustable koni's. That make the install even better. No mods at all. If you use the factory struts, you have to cut the coller off the front strut and notch out some of the strut. since you have an srt, you have to get new rear struts cause they use self leveling shocks in the rear. The car wont drop all the way in the rear without new shocks. If you have over 35k on the car, you should just get the koni's and call it a day. You will have a rie better then stock with the bags+ koni's together. My setup I dont use gauges either, but if you want to drive very low, then you can get gauges.

Really depends on when you would want it done and how much work we have at that time.

here is my setup that Im working on, I only completed one side today( doing it alone). It whould be done tomorrow if I get a few hours. here are some pics

[customaudioman]

here are the finish shots of my ride. Did all the work myself.





Dropped on universal air kit, let me know what you want done

[Bagged Mag]

good job on the setup. im guessing by the way you have the valves setup that it drops faster than it raises? if you want it to raise quicker let me know. would just need to change the setup a lil bit.

oh yeah, ride looks hot! tryin to bag mine by the end of the year.

[customaudioman]

I have the front drop slower and the rear drop fast. I have the slow downs on the front valves not the rears. I like the speed of the setup now. I dont need it any faster, thanks

any locals interested in air ride let me know.
