Shock Size

Hey guys I have Air Ride and I want to get the front to tuck more. I need to get short shocks in order to do this, but I dont know what to look for. Anyone got any helpful hints?

yeah thats the main problem with airbags
its bags over strut design right? A shorter strut isnt necessarily going to fix the problem. What you probably want is a strut with a lower perch. What you can probably do is get coilovers, take out the spring, maybe get a perch custom made and put it on that. thats the only thing I can think of but yeah its going to have to be custom done cause by getting koni/tokicos, its not really going to help.

I think there was this one company that made air bags that slam up front. Only thing is i forgot which company it was. maybe try searching for it, I remember seeing a civic with the front bumper on the ground. maybe you can buy the shocks from them or if they use a different setup, buy the front bags from them.
