Bernymacs yukon finally in the shop

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3882 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Monday, April 21, 2008 - 15:01 GMT Today I'm taking the Yukon to get worked on. It'll be gone for about a month. If you didn't know, its getting air bags. I know how many of you hate it, but this is my style. If I had a 4wd I would definitely lift it, but its a 2wd, so air bags it is.

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3883 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Monday, April 21, 2008 - 15:56 GMT Heres how it'll look like once bagged. It'll actually be lower than that, lay frame, the body is about 3-4 inches off the ground. representing the crews
Chad Lee Diamond Member Username: Bestmankind Los Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 20411 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Monday, April 21, 2008 - 15:57 GMT looks nice berny. can't wait to get the stickers made. also the air bag is going to be sick.
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3884 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Monday, April 21, 2008 - 16:03 GMT Yeah I want the stickers made already. Also, I tore out the whole system already. All I have is a headunit, 1 set of memphis msync6 components, and 2 batteries and the alternator, plus wiring. I'm thinking about some rainbow components 3 way and a pretty decent sub stage. I don't even want to think about the system right now after the air bags haha.

Mat ***** Gold Member Username: Adddisorder Palm Beach, Florida Post Number: 6213 Registered: Jan-06	Posted on Monday, April 21, 2008 - 22:31 GMT definatly get rainbows they are amazing what set you looking at? and personally id go with 2way its more practical in car audio if you ask me. and im pretty surprised it takes a shop that long just to bag it! but it is easy to turn a 2wd into 4x4
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3885 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 00:20 GMT profi vanadiums mat. Chad, the yukon is already at the shop now, i just got back. Its going to be awesome next month. it should be out before my birthday . lay frame ftw.

Paul Larrea Platinum Member Username: Wingmanalive A pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 16177 Registered: Jun-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 01:16 GMT How durable are the bags? Meaning are you always riding around on inflated bags or is there a locking mechanism? I would hate to think of riding down the freeway and bang! One bag defects and you have a catastrophe. Just curious.
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3886 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 01:43 GMT they're pretty durable. but of course not as safe as a stock suspension (springs). But you gotta take the risks if your going to do this. I barely drive on the freeway paul so no big worries. I'll be safe if the bags don't rub against anything and are far from heat such as exhaust pipes.

Mat ***** Gold Member Username: Adddisorder Palm Beach, Florida Post Number: 6216 Registered: Jan-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 02:22 GMT They are safe paul i dont know about aftermarket but they are still limited to travel. Some stock vehicle's have air bags too, alot of the time it is used for towing to help level it out, plus it gives you a smoother ride. They will go bad over time but i have never heard about them just blowing out fast. Usually stock ones will just not hold air and slowly deflate so the car will sag.
Jenova Project Gold Member Username: Pitbullguy The Chicago area Post Number: 3115 Registered: Oct-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 02:28 GMT okay wtf kind of air bags are you guys talking about? when someone says air bags to me, i think of air bags that shoot out during a crash for safety purposes, but based on the context of this conversation i don't think that is whats being discussed.
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3889 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 02:35 GMT lol look at the picture I posted. Air bags, like hydraulics but with air.
Paul Larrea Platinum Member Username: Wingmanalive A pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 16185 Registered: Jun-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 02:48 GMT So how about the hydraulics that inflate the bags? Same concern. Looks cool to me tho lol.
Mat ***** Gold Member Username: Adddisorder Palm Beach, Florida Post Number: 6220 Registered: Jan-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 03:04 GMT heres a pic of some bags not your typical install though

Andrew Capps Gold Member Username: Shortysetnies Rock Vegas, NC US Post Number: 2458 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 07:06 GMT Please tell me that your wheels will tuck up in the truck and not sit sideways. Thats the only thing I hate about dropped trucks. Other than that, its cool. Congrats man
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3928 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Wednesday, May 07, 2008 - 06:54 GMT I miss her guys, its been so long . I've never been separated from my car for so long. But it'll be worth it.

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3966 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Sunday, May 25, 2008 - 18:49 GMT LOL, yes phil it'll be able to fly just for you. Just make sure you get really high before we go for a ride.
cal payne Gold Member Username: Skibum12189 Cleveland Post Number: 2890 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Sunday, May 25, 2008 - 19:26 GMT is air ride the same thing as air bags? bc when i went skiing one time, we were loadin up my buddys denali and like air kept on being either released or taken in as it got heavier...thought that was kinda badazz
Reece Brassler Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22s I get Bucks like Milwa... Post Number: 5932 Registered: Feb-06	Posted on Sunday, May 25, 2008 - 19:31 GMT air ride is different that bags. my nali has air ride too.
Andrew Capps Gold Member Username: Shortysetnies Rock Vegas, NC US Post Number: 2608 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Sunday, May 25, 2008 - 20:25 GMT air ride is made to level out the vehicle depending on the load in the back. the more weight, the more it lifts up, as the weight is taken out, it lets air out. my moms mini van she had 10 years ago had that...
lOwLiFe Gold Member Username: Loc_out SOCAL2 RE 15 XXX Post Number: 2122 Registered: Feb-05	Posted on Tuesday, May 27, 2008 - 18:55 GMT wow its looking good berny...
BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3972 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Tuesday, May 27, 2008 - 19:18 GMT Next thing he said he'll do is put in the c-notch, and everything else will fall in to place after that, so I'm hoping it'll get done very soon. I want the yukon back in my garage!

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 3987 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Friday, May 30, 2008 - 16:37 GMT Not to much longer Gus. He recently just got the c-notch in so it'll be nothing after this, hopefully. Uploading picture now. I kind of wish there were metal square at the joints of that weld though.

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 4078 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Sunday, June 29, 2008 - 02:48 GMT I'm not even going to say bc I don't even know. Even if the guy told me, it probaly won't be out still. So thats really unconfirmed. By the looks of it, it could be about another 2 weeks. But thats fine since I'm not in a hurry and the car looks great.

BernyMac Gold Member Username: Bernymac Cambodia Post Number: 4120 Registered: Sep-04	Posted on Monday, July 14, 2008 - 15:32 GMT Guys, I got a call yesterday and he left a voicemail. Said that the Yukon is done but he needs to know if I want the big rectangular hole in the back covered or not. Welded or bolted on. So I'm going to tell him to bolt it on and pick up the truck sometime this week.
