Still on the prowl for a new park ave
Looks good, one of my fav colors next to Black!
If you cannot find an air ride compressor, you know you could always get the conversion kit from Monroe, that would give you a schrader valve that you could manually add air to, or remove air from the struts.
This should be the part needed to go that route.

Yeah, i was gonna go that route because i have extra hoses and valves from installing and removing em off friends cars.. I pulled off the compressor tried to giv it a couple squirts of lube to see if it would work.. It runs just not producing or pushing out air...
But im in luck, i rememberd my brother girlfriend has a lesebre i disabled the air ride on and installed a conversion kit they orderd.. I plan to pull it off of their.. Just hope it still works its been about a year

Sucks it won't push out any air, and you are lucky to be able to pull one from your brothers girls car, if you try to get those pumps brand new they are like 600.00
Here is what I have used to lubricate mine from time to time, the needle tip fits perfectly in the hole I use to oil it.

I know! Way to expensive! When i saw that price i was like ok i think ill just use one of the conversion kits thats around.. But then again id wana have to pump the air in myself
The conversion kits should not require too much attention, as long as the strut airbags are in good condition, and not leaking.
You would see what your ride height is listed in the rear as in your vehicle ride height specs, then fill them till it is close to what the specs say.
You should only have to add more air if you have to haul something really heavy in the trunk.
Or remove air if you have something heavy in it now, and have to remove it later.

I am wondering if a new aftermarket compressor could be added with a manual switch.
I've got the new Delco shocks & lately I'm not happy with the leveling at all.
Mind you I got a ton of gear in the trunk, but still pump it up!
Was sunny finally on Fri, got this shot of the PA.
Both in real life & the PA is suffering from rear end sag LOL..
