Elite 65230C Rear Coil Spring Replacing Air Spring Conversion Kit Including Shocks

I replaced the air suspension with this kit and everything went fine. The hardest part was getting it jacked up since it was sitting too low to the ground. Removed the air springs and old shocks, replaced them with these springs and new shocks. My local shop was going to charge $550 to do this. So buying this kit saved over $400. The only drawback to the conversion is you have to remove fuse ECAS to deactivate the compressor so it doesn't try to inflate air springs that are no longer there. I guess that compressor also goes to the tire inflator in the back since it no longer works. I kept the fuse in the vehicle and will pop it in if I ever need to inflate my tires. Other than that I'm glad I did this and it should last as long as I have the car. The ride feels slightly more floaty now but not bad. Handling is much better.

Great work out perfect

Perfect fit for my GMC. Shock absorber and spring were excellent quality. Air suspension was going out and this was a great option. I also replaced the rear upper control arms. It's not in this kit but highly recommend doing those two also while you have it all taken apart. You won’t need the control arms that attach to the compressor switch if you do. YouTube has videos for it all.

Replaced air springs on an ‘07 Buick Rainier with this coil spring kit. First time doing such a procedure...(thank you youtube!) and got it completely done in about 2.5 hours....if I were to do it again, probably an hour quicker...all in driveway, a lift would shorten dramatically. Springs felt to be guite heavy, shocks installed easily. Ride seems very similar to original air ride suspension. Have not towed or had heavy loads since I’ve nstallation, so nothing to comment upon in that regard.

Did not come with struts like the add says... along with pictures... got springs.. no struts...

I was So tired of my fault airbag suspension on my buick. This kit was $10 cheaper, and arrived 1 week sooner than any competitor I could find. This took just over an hour to install as well! You can’t beat steel springs and replacement shocks. 11/10 Would recommend this product to anyone looking to covert their suspension.

I installed these on a 2007 Saab 97-X to replace the air suspension, and it raised the ride height by a lot which makes it drive much different than before. These did not give me a factory ride as they said they were supposed to. We are looking to remove the springs and just replace them with another brand now because of the raised height and the look of the vehicle. It feels like the rear sways on turns because of the height difference. I would have returned them, but we waited too long to install them and the return date had passed. The ride height is like the airbags would have been pumped up all the way. See the photo of the ride height. The one photo is the rear and the other is the front which shows the standard height.

Super easy install but it did give a bit firmer ride than I would have liked. Now don't get me wrong...if your airbags have failed and you meed your truck back on the road asap, this is a great way to do it and not have any concerns for future repairs. There was only a few hand tools needed and it took my BIL and myself a half hour from start to finish (we weren’t rushing either). If your ok with a slightly firmer ride in the back then this is a perfect option for airbag replacement.
