Hi, any reason for having a tube extension between the bag and upper mount? I'm waiting for my air ride package to arrive and realized my planning of the bag setup is different than how you have yours setup. I didn't account for any spacing at all between the bag and upper mount.

I'll be installing the Aero Sports on BC coilovers.

Thanks!

I was a fan of your Q. Which is why I was surprised you went static but now with bags, your ride has a completely different demeanor. I'm sure you still have lots more planned.

Damnit! Your new stance after installing air is making me want to go with air so bad. How do you like the ride on the bags vs the bc coilovers? I'm really curious of how it affects the ride.
