Default air ride issue

once again 01 bonneville

where can i get oem air lines and shocks...

the rear shocks were replaced with what autozone said were stock air shocks from gabriel. but in the package it says their for an 85 truck.... these shocks werent meant for lower pressures such as the ones for luxury air ride cars min psi is like 30psi

i was told the pump dont build up enough pressure for them. and thats why someone ran separate air lines to a valve like on trucks where you air them up with a compressor

ya go with monroe max airs MA822 is the part # they come in pairs the gabriel'* are junk also check your height sensor in the driver side left rear wheel well disconect the linkage on it and let it spring up in about 10 seconds after that you should hear the compressor kick on the car has to be on for it to work air lines are either junk yard or Oem
