Don't use air shocks
Made the mistake of installing a set of air
shocks in my 89 GT, with the thought I would keep the rear up in the winter on the pot hole PA roads. After a few weeks I noticed that they would no longer hold air and that the right rear shock had broken the top shock mount cup off the welds on the frame and body. Not being able to weld in the area of the GAS TANK I had to figure a way to bolt the mount back on to the frame and body. I guess the stiffness if the shock caused the member to break.

RE: Don't use air shocks
yup, air shocks are not any good, unless it is bolted directly to a frame rail
