Title: Front suspension?
Post by: Ccemn1 on August 16, 2017, 01:47:59 PM
Newbie here. I just purchased a stretched, Fiero based, Diablo. Does anyone have any experience with installing adjustable front suspension, that can be adjusted from the cockpit?
Maybe some air shocks tied into a compressor, or something?
I'd like to be able to drive up steep driveway entrances, without scraping off the chin spoiler.
Thanks guys.

Ccemn1: What suspension do you presently have?  OEM GM Fiero or aftermarket wide-track?

 Accuair: "All of this automatic intelligence is unnoticed by the driver, providing improved ride quality and handling characteristics for any vehicle with Air Suspension."

Picture #1:  This system utilizes an air cylinder to push down on the swaybar for front end lift.
Picture #2:  This frame setup with boat rollers attached right, center, and left allow the obstruction to raise the frame before the body gets any damage.

Not sure Lambiero, I took a long ride to find it, took some Pics & it's on a carrier on it's way to me right now.
If I can figure out how to post Pics on here, I'll post some. I measured the front track width, when I thought I might attempt to trailer it back myself, and it measured Approx 74" from sidewall to sidewall on the front tires.
Not knowing a thing about Fieros, or these, I'm lost.

Thank you, guys.
I love the boat roller idea. Cheap, practical and functional.
