Rear Air Shocks For Sagging Springs? • The Dodge Challenger Message Board

by **Lamer1** » 06 Sep 2001 9:05

on my dodge at the rear it has been fitted with adjustable air shocks, i think its because the springs are a bit old, but the air is leaking out of them within 1 hour now, i just wondered if anyone knows where i can get some cheap ones in the uk without me spending hours looking on the net etc or if anyone has rebuilt them and might know what the problem is.

If I was you I would recambeer the rear springs and fit proper shox. Air shox dont do you any favours coz the shock mounts were not designed to carry the weight of the car.
