Can a lowering module get you the aggressive drop you're looking for? I know you can set it so that it goes back to stock height after a certain mph threshold. I just don't know if it can get you really slammed though.

There is a member on here that uses solenoids and valves to slam when parked.

With a bit of luck he/she rings in at some point, I have seen some pics, but this was a couple of months ago..

I already tried to contact him about his solenoid setup. But I guess he don't want to share any info.Because he never respond to any of my PM's or email.

From what I think. A solenoid is placed between the air strut lines. And a switch to activate the solenoid to activate on/off? You can probably have any shop that deal with air ride suspension do this job? I have spoked to the guys at accuair. And they are working on a module that will let you control the height any level you wish. But they don't have a set date on the release.

Renntech has a terrific lowering module that hooks directly into the suspension system.
