"Rookie-Touring" '69 Dart

I think you are either talking to wrong guys about Air Ride, not talking about Ride Tech Air Ride, or both. Ride Tech has come so far with their equipment, and they continue to improve on it. I've chatted with a lot of guys on pro-touring.com who have and are running Ride Tech Air and have nothing but great things to say. From what I've read, their controls are not the top of the line, but their Shockwaves don't get any better for ride and even performance handling. I've heard awesome feedback on the AccuAir controls when coupled with the Ride Tech single or double adjustable shockwave. Ride Tech is also testing via a 1968 Camaro running the One Lap of America, a 3 way adjustable shock.

The shock I'm referring to is their "Select Series" shock and it can build it as a Shockwave (air over shock), a coil-over, or sell it as a stand alone shock. Here is a link to descriptions of all their shocks, all of which can be built with air or coil-overs.

I've been very impressed with the feedback I've read from guys running the Select Series and I've been planning to run this shock all along, air or coil-over. It's definitely worth checking out.

The rack from Woodward definitely does NOT mount like your typical MII rack. It actually mounts from the bottom with 3 bolts in a triangular shape. Woodward has a TON of tech on their site in addition to instructions on mounting their rack.
