Default Rear spring bag source

Can someone tell me a source for the air bags that go in the rear coil springs on a 66 GTO.

A just read a post last week about someone having them and now I can not find the post.

A question to people using them, are you just putting them in the passenger spring or are you using them on both sides with different air pressures.

Thank you in advance,

Try Summit or Jeg's. Be sure to order the right ones for your application.

I got mine from Summit. I put them in each side. On my streetcar they are set at different pressures. On my racecar they were set the same when I used them. The racecar only had them to give adequate tire clearance.

Thank you,

I'll try Summit.

OMT, What do you have your street car pressure set at?

Or what pressure should I start at.

I typically had 5 on the driver's side and 10-20 on the passenger side. I would start with 5 and 15 and go from there. The more traction you get the higher the pressure needs to be on the right side. I think I ran 10 on the street and 20 on the track.

66 Bonne & OMT

Thanks for the help.

My bags will be ready for pick up today after work. (Auto lift)

I'm hoping this will help with my body twist that my new rear end is giving my car.

Replacing my rear end and rear suspension really made a difference with my launch. I'm starting to get some of the engine to the road. Finally.
