Ridetech 49-51 Mercury Air Over Leaf Rear CoolRide System

If you're looking to give your classic 1949-1951 Mercury or Ford a smoother ride and adjustable stance, this Ridetech CoolRide rear suspension system is a solid option. This kit is designed to work with your existing leaf spring setup, integrating air springs to replace or supplement your stock suspension. It's a popular choice for custom builds where ride comfort and the ability to lower the vehicle are key goals.

This system includes the necessary air springs, custom-fit brackets, and all the hardware you'll need to get it installed. The air springs allow you to dial in your ride height and spring rate by simply adding or releasing air pressure, giving you a much more comfortable ride than a traditional leaf spring setup alone. The well-built brackets ensure a secure mounting point for the air springs, integrating cleanly with your car's frame and leaf springs. It's a great way to update the feel of your classic without a complete chassis overhaul.

This kit fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Ford Custom, Ford Deluxe, and Mercury Monterey. While it works with your leaf springs, consider how you'll control the air pressure – you'll need an air compressor and a way to manage the air lines and valves, which are sold separately.
