66 Continental

[sexii66]

I see alot of tech questions and problems with air bags on here. Blowing fuses and compressor problems. Is it even worth the aggravation. I wanna put it on my 66 Continental Coupe but I don't wanna go through these problems if it isn't worth it. Help me make a decision. My car already is leaning to one side which I haven't figured out yet. Passenger side is at ride height and the driver side looks like it has bags on it already.

here's some pics of my 66 LCC. Normally the only problems we encounter are installation issues. Once those issues are resolved there are no problems. The equipment we use is all DOT rated and used on tractor/trailers that put on A LOT of miles each year. We only use the best equipment. Once in a while we do have a product failure but we cover it under warranty so it does not cost the customer any more money. We are here to provide the best possible product for our customers, not to source it all out to China so our profit margins increase.

You should see Britt's '66 do the autox...:)...looks like different wheels there, Britt; did you get tired of chasing hubcaps? lol

I haven't been an "AirHead" very long (not in this sense, anyway, lol), but this company's concern for quality impresses the heck out of me all the time.

Thanks for the info Britt. Hopefully I don't run into any problems. I think i'm gonna go with the new airpod. Seems fairly easy.

It's very easy. Get the 5-gallon version; hook up power, ground and ignition, plug in the air lines (and level pro level sensors if you go that route) and mount the display and you are finished!

I'd suggest the LevelPro for this car as the rear is much quicker than the front. The LevelPro will attain the preset ride height quickly, easily, and very accuratly.

I mounted my control panel in the ash tray in the dash (I can provide pics if you need). Mobsteel also has a billet face plate available should you desire:

Thanks again. I was planning on the LevelPro system (part # APOD4100L). I'll have to call to see what exactly I need for the complete system. I'm not sure if the ride height sensors is included with this system. Also not sure about the StongeArm price and whats included. Seems like it's $899 each but not sure. Hey, do they make a upper control arm for the Continental? I haven't seen anything on that. The ShockWaves, i'm gonna go with the double adjustables. I WOULD like to see pics of how you mounted your control panel. Any and all ideas will be helpful as this is my first time and will be installing myself and would like to get it right the first time...NOT! LOL

Thanks alot

APOD4100L is the complete compressor system with everything you need to install, and includes level sensors.

There are no upper control arms available that I know of.

The Front kit is $899 which includes both sides: tubular lower control arm, air springs, air spring mounts, shocks, and shock relocation bracket.

If you do double adjustable Shockwaves in the rear I'd suggest you upgrade the front shocks to double adjustable as well.
