Product Details

These Universal Air Solution Series air struts fit the 1981-1987 BMW 5 Series E28.

The Universal Air Solution Series Air Struts for the BMW 5 Series E28 replace the factory struts with height-adjustable air struts. Every Solution Series kit is custom-built to order and hand-assembled for the car. Universal Air has over 20 airbag designs and matches each vehicle with one, for full travel and up to 7 inches of ride height adjustment. Proprietary threaded dampers have adjustable damping and travel, from a low show stance to daily driving height.

Designed and assembled in San Bernardino, California, Universal Air has over 25 years of experience building air suspension systems for specialty applications ranging from show cars to OEM R&D projects. The Solution Series is a bolt-on kit for most applications and needs no advanced modifications.
