General Suspension Question
 
Found out I need new rear air bags and had a question. The Bill Blass edition has 40% softer bags. So I was thinking to put them up front to allow greater transfer for the 1/4. does this make sense to you guys?

You want shocks with less rebound valving for better weight transfer.

softer springs/bags go in the back

You want the back to squat down and the front to push upward.

you cant put the rear bags on the front.. atleast from what i read this is what your trying to do if so, you cant.

strutmasters.com or arnott industries, has bags for like $90 a piece

no plans to swap front and rear bags, just maybe swap stiffness

Spencer...I think you're money will be well-invested to convert the airbags on that car to a standard spring/strut. The boys out in Odenville have some conversion control-arms that allow this...and some other method for the front (I thin kit's a thunderbird control-arm and seetup.

Getting rid of the airbags will be great for your plans: a hotrod lincoln.
