Having a hell of a time finding air bag suspension for my 2008 4matic. I can find the RWD ones all day, but as far as the 4Matic it seems that every company has discontinued them.
Any help would be great.
What is the difference with the AWD to RWD? Do you guys think that the RWD Kit will fit the AWD version?
there is no bolt on kit for the 4matic and the rwd one won't fit. I have a bagged 4matic and i went with accuair e level with touchpad management. You can run which ever management you want it's up to you. For the struts i ran the airlift universal strut kit , the shop you have it installed at will have to do some minor welding and adjusting to the front struts to make them fit but thats about it.
Is there any way you could post a parts list for this 4matic setup your running. Im sure besdes mself a couple of people are trying to figure this out. Thanks man appreciate the assistance.

what shop in toronto do you use? or do you do the work yourself? and is there a place to buy after market parts in the gta area that I'm missing out on just wondering if you would know.
on another not i was looking at lowing springs vs air bags still deciding but i got a great quote from vaughn for H&R springs for 4 matic 275$
accuair e level management with touch pad.
that includes the manifold tank, compressors, and wiring.
airlift universal short stroke struts
for the front
and slam specialties ss 5 bags for the rear
these aren't in a kit so you need to purchase 2 bags and the necessary brackets for mounting these bags.
thats all for parts, there is a couple of other little things that the shop will add during install.
All in all cost me $5200 Canadian. I got the management used so that also saved me 800. To do bags with my setup all brand new including install it should be around $6000 Canadian.

I used air assisted in Toronto. Owner is kevin, really quality work.
I haven't found anywhere that sells aftermarket yet. I ordered all mine or just found them on kijiji.
bags go a lot lower, but also cost a lot more. I have a set of used h&r sport springs i can sell you. Only used for around 3 months, good condition.

Probably the nicest c class I've seen. I'd rather bag it over $3000 coils but you think I can run them in the winter? Won't the compressor freeze when it's really cold out? Maybe plastic piping and some insulation would do the trick? I've got the same wheels as you lol
I'm running Air Lift 3H with D2 Racing struts on my C350 (RWD). Everything bolted right up and fit nicely. I went through Bag Riders. Definitely recommend them.

You're running bags now? Pics? Last I remember was seeing you parting out your car a whiles back.

That's awesome man, I can't wait to bag my300 4matic but yeah I heard they have a couple bolt on kits for the RWD none for the 4matic unfortunately. Needs some custom made struts. Are the oem struts the same on awd models as RWD ? I needs moar low
