Can you install a watts link with Air ride?

[willpower]

Hiya,

Has anyone installed an air ride kit and a watts? I'm thinking about the Fays2 (or similar) + Digital Air Ride.

I'm afraid of:

1. any interferences
2. when the air ride settles the brackets of the linkage will hit the floor
3. will be putting excess pressure on the differential when the air ride is at rest


Thanks

There is a guy on TMS that has an air ride and a Whiteline watts link, I am trying to find his post or at least name.

That top left blot on will hit the EVAP tube that goes over the axle even tho whiteline has you move it its not enough for when you lower the car all the way down.

You will need to put the car on jack stands on the axle have someone slowly lower it and see where to move it to so it will not get crushed.

I cant say for the fays2.

I would think you would have different issues with the Fays since it is axle mounted.

Thanks for the info, I may just go with air ride only to prevent any problems from occurring, sorry for the late reply.

I have both with no issues.

As long as you are aware that there may be clearance issue and are able to move and adjust things accordingly, you will be fine.
