Concerning Sleeve Style ShockWaves

A sleeve style airspring or ShockWave typically has a lower load capacity and longer travel than a double convoluted style unit. That is why they are normally used in a rear application. RideTech has now developed a larger 104mm [6.5"] diameter ShockWave that offers the best of both worlds...the softer linear spring rate of a sleeve style airpsring AND the higher load capacity provided by the 104mm diameter. It is EXACTLY the same dimensions as the 6.5" double convoluted style unit but offers an even better ride quality.

You will note that some of the very heavy vehicles such as Cadillacs, Impalas, and trucks may still perform best with the progressive spring rate of the double convoluted style ShockWave. In addition, the 104mm sleeve style ShockWave cannot be run "upside down". For all those applications we still provide the traditional style double convoluted style ShockWaves.

"Just installed this kit on my 2009 Ram and I can say it is worth every penny and more, To have an awsome ride from a lowered truck on 24s is unheard-of UNTIL NOW.... This kit rides very good and when you park and let the air out give's the 2009 Ram a whole new look.... WAY TO GO RIDETECH!!!! Look for my review on www.DodgeForum.com, the truck is call Grave Robber."

– James Grosaint, 09/23/2011

"Two words...."FREAKIN AWESOME!!" Ridetech is the leading manufacturer in air ride products."

– Marcus A., 09/23/2011

"This is my third street rod that I have built that has used the Air Over Leaf kits and I love them. When I hook my 17 foot trailer to the back of one of the Street rods, all I do is add a little air and the car is right back to ride height. The first set I used was many years ago and the informational help that I received was great. I recommend you to everyone."
