Four wheel air ride suspension conversion?

My searches have turned up plenty regarding the rear air shocks, replacement and conversion to standard shocks as well as safety air bags, but nothing on a full air ride suspension.

Has anyone attempted it? There are some complete kits out there, but I question their compatibility due to the somewhat limited aftermarket for our Bonnevilles.

There were a couple bagged 92-99s many years ago but I don't remember an 00+.

stumbled across this post.

i was a member of bonnevilleclub 20 years ago.

back in 2004 i bagged a 1994 sse. it was green and had chrome 5 spoke 20's
the front struts were universal. i think i got them from airbagit.com i dont remember
rear were 2600lb bags
10 switches
viair compressor
it was the only bagged 92-99 that i knew of and never seen another one



im sure some of the old timers on this site remember the car
i gotta track down some pictures and post em some how
it was a fun car and i only had it put together for maybe 2 years before it got wrecked

GXP_Venom on the old forum bagged his 2005 GXP. However, he hasn't been active since 2020.
The car sits on Airbag/struts in the front and air bags in the rear, powered by a chrome air tank and twin ViAir 12V compressors in the trunk. An 8 solenoid valve air manifold controlled by a computer powered minaturized remote switch box allows you to adjust all 4 corners indepently and monitored by a digital pressure gauge mounted in an air conditioner duct. The car can go from sitting on its tires to jacked 2 feet in the air on the fly.
