Welcome to CL. Tasty had an AWD on air. You can PM him with questions. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/dig...p-modular.html
Here is another link to my buddies site who made Tasty and I's VIP tables. He sold the car and is parting out. http://vipdout.com/lowballers-2006-lexus-is250-awd/

i thought that AWD can't be slammed.CV joints on awd prevent to slam it under 15 inches.Interest how he made it

Bags is not really slamming it since it can be raised with the push of a button to normal ride height.

You're right but he probably had a "driving height" on air and when he parked he slammed it.

Accuair makes a bolt on kit....it is Accuair management and D2 racing struts. Just put mine on this weekend and I am in love!

I don't remember them asking if it was RWD or AWD when I purchased....I don't think it matters for application purposes.

the bags don't really matter as long as it fits over the coilover inner strut cartridge in replace of the spring. Everything after that is just the standard coilover/strut assembly. I had a friend who had a bagged miata on megan EZ coils. Inexpensive universal setup. If i remember correct, a lot of Mercedes guys do bags over stock struts. There was one guy who just posted his GS recently on bags and stock struts.

So bags are better because they slamed CV only when you stay?Offtop:Sffd i saw that in some theme you post the link to the awd coilovers issues theme.i was encountered with vibrations when use brake pedal when stay in D mode.I went lower this season,can it be the reason? Thanks

I don't have a bag over kit. He asked if any company made a bolt on kit. Accuair does.

The question I was wondering is if it ia different RWD to AWD.....I don't think it is....
