After seeing a few of the Ksport/D2 air kits in person, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase one if I were looking for air suspension. The only feature I wish they had, that's available elsewhere, is the ability to control your ride height from your smart phone. Much more convenient than carrying around a remote imo. In terms of quality, I've seen a few failures with the Ksport kit but most of them were related to improper installation.

Hey Matt. So in your opinion and experience, what's the ride quality like? Is comparable to stock? better or worse? I'm mainly looking at this system for aesthetics and use when going up my steep driveway but am concerned about reliability and everyday use. Thanks!

Define exact.

They don't look... exactly the same, and the prices aren't exactly the same either. With that said, I bet the support you get from either company isn't going to be exactly the same either... considering the times I have tried to contact D2 fell on deaf ears.

How many of these kits have you installed?

Have you had any first hand, or direct experience with installing and/or using either of these kits?
