Over 20+ years developing Air Ride Kits for the Classic Volkswagen should give you confidence that the product offerings the PRO's provide will do what we say they will. Offer a smooth ride, the highest amount of lift and the least maintenance in the industry . - by Pete Skiba - PRO since 2002 | Airkewld.com | Updated on 8/12/23

The PRO's have compiled TWO kits that offer a COMPLETE Air Ride system for your Classic Volkswagen.

  1. Complete Air Ride Kit - Front kit, Rear kit, and a 4 valve air management kit. This has everything you need to go from a static torsion suspension to air ride. It is designed to work with a stock beam, stock beam that has been narrowed with non modified towers or an Ultimate Beam.
  2. Complete PRObuilt Air Ride Kit - Stage 2 Complete PRObuilt Air Ride Beam, Rear kit, and a 4 valve air management kit. Bolt-on solution up front, fully customizable and shrinks install time immensely.
Front kits are compiled of TWO options.

  1. Complete Front Kits - Everything you need to air ride your front end with optional products to make the job easier and more complete.
  2. Stage 2 PRObuilt Beams - Bolt-on solution, built by the PRO's to ensure proper operations.
Rear Kits - Everything you need to air ride your rear end with optional products to make the job easier and more complete.

Air Management Kit - 2 Valve and 4 Valve options are available. You SHOULDN'T run a 2 valve system on your vehicle when you have front and rear air ride. It will not be an enjoyable experience.

a PRO's Take | Product Advice & Recommendation

"I need to stress this point to everyone. Installing air ride on a vehicle with a high horse power engine is not the right call. It is literally a waste of money. If you are building a Classic VW and you want to cruise it, air ride is for you. Performance applications need a more controlled, firm application to put power to the ground....and I don't mean racing."

Trust is earned and reputation makes decisions easy. - Airkewld CEO Pete Skiba
