i forgot one thing if you do decide to run air make sure you run either four three way valves or eight singles dont to try to run a 2 three way or four singles because you will have a problem with it leaning
drg84 you must have had factory air on a car and never had a regular air ride system to dislike air so much, i just think it is impractical to have hydrolics. i just watch my friends cars every day blowing ball joints, hoses, pumps, and iv even seen batterys catching on fire,
with air you can have a system with 4 compressors and you only need one or two extra battries and never have a problem
another suggestion i have is use a regular pressure switch for like tour house air compressor instead of one that air ride companys sell because you have to use a selinoid to work multible compressors with a standuard air compressor pressure switch you dont need that it has a power switch so you can turn your compressors off if you go away like from your car for a few days you dont have to come back to a dead batterie if you have a slight leak which is not un common but not a problem. the air ride pressure swiches that companys sell i just dont like thats my opinion weather you like it or not!Ill take rust any day over that itchy ass fiberglass!

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
