Darren / LowGo

I finally took my winter wheels off today, so I had an opportunity to take a picture of the AWD lower front strut mount.

LowGo, I also recently have a AWD and now finally see the difference in the front. :) Thanks for the picture.

Lowgo,
The 2wd stuff definitely will not work, but I bet it would be possible to attach a shockwave to that stock lower fork. It would take some custom mounts and such tho.
Darren,
with the large numbers of AWD LX vehicles out there, and the fact that they are a prime audience for lowering (we're already an inch higher than RWD) plus -- and the biggest advantage for me and probably others -- the auto-leveling feature for carrying around larger loads or hauling.

Is it foreseeable that Air-Ride / you guys could create a drop-in solution for the AWD platform as you have for the RWD? How many seed buyers might you need? I'm quite excited about this possiblility and lowering/bags are on most AWD drivers minds... :)

What about in the further future? ;)

I know that there are a lot of AWDs out there that would benefit from some direction from Air-Ride on what has worked successfully. Are you able to talk to Air-Ride and see what their best way to proceed would be?

As far as getting in a car to prototype it, I could do this at a local shop/dealer, sounds like LowGo may as well and others I'm sure. :)

It's definitely possible, but I don't I don't see it happening in the near future.

Actually... here is house we have had very little call for the AWD kits so far. I am sure it is something we will eventually look at doing but at this point it will only happen when A. the demand picks up for them and B. we physically get one here in house to develop on.

That is the bad thing about us being essentially a small hot rod shop in the middle of the corn fields. We just can not react that fast while we are still developing other applications too.:beerchug:

Actually, my only interest would be in a replacement for the stock front shock. I've already got the air suspension.

I can understand this from your standpoint. In relation to the number of RWD LX's, us AWD's are a relatively small segment. But, I'm sure you also realize that for every AWD inquiry, there are several who see you don't offer it, and just move on, without asking, to a supplier that does offer it. :wink:

dARREN & tONY

Nice to see you guys over here. I was wondering when you come out to the Turkey Run this year in Daytona, do you think we can have a look at my car and see what we can do to dial it in, finally? I would really appreciate it

thanks
